Techniques Used For Improving Visual Efficiency, Robert Allbaugh, Charles Miller Jan 1946

Techniques Used For Improving Visual Efficiency, Robert Allbaugh, Charles Miller

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

During the war a great many claims were made for methods of increasing visual acuity, decreasing astigmatism, correcting eye muscle balance and even to overcoming color blindness. A veritable wave of cures has arisen to aid young men with borderline vision who desire to enlist in the air corps or other branches of the service requiring nearly perfect vision. The civilian population will probably feel the effects of these remedies which are causing some concern in optical circles. The present authors are attempting to attack the problem experimentally and this paper is presented as a survey of the field as …

Iowa's Contribution To American Men Of Science, Seventh Edition, H. E. Zabel Jan 1945

Iowa's Contribution To American Men Of Science, Seventh Edition, H. E. Zabel

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The latest directory has appeared during the war when many fields of science are marking time and when we have adopted a policy of interrupting the production of scientists. It thus becomes a landmark and an analysis of the data it presents has special significance. In this directory Iowa has not only maintained her position among the leading states in production of scientists but has slightly improved this relative standing.

A Method For Evaluation And Equation Of Test Forms, Mary Dodds, Barbara Day, A. R. Lauer Jan 1945

A Method For Evaluation And Equation Of Test Forms, Mary Dodds, Barbara Day, A. R. Lauer

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Notwithstanding the pioneer work of Spearman (1927 (and numerous studies by Thurstone on problems of intelligence, most testing programs seem to postulate only one type of intelligence. Division of the total score may be made into arbitrary categories for use in advising students but the program itself does not seem to conform to accepted theory on the subject. There has been little change in the administration of the program. This is partly due to the elaborate nature of test materials used. To save labor in developing a test it has been customary to build a long one to cover a …

The Performance Of Psychopaths On The Wechsler-Bellevue Test, C. R. Strother Jan 1945

The Performance Of Psychopaths On The Wechsler-Bellevue Test, C. R. Strother

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A problem of persistent interest to the clinical psychologist is the discovery of characteristics of performance on psychological tests that will serve to differentiate various clinical groups. Such signs, if they can be found, would be of considerable assistance in determining diagnosis in borderline cases and would greatly enhance the value of clinical psychometrics differentiate these groups. In the course of a study of cases of psychopathic personality, initiated at the University Psychopathic Hospital by Dr. Gottlieb and Dr. Knott, we became interested in an analysis of the psychometric performance of the psychopath and in the relationships between psychometric performance, …

The Degree Of Extensional Agreement Among Twenty Psychologists In Their Use Of The Labels Hypothesis, Theory And Law, Wendell Johnson, John T. Wilson Jan 1945

The Degree Of Extensional Agreement Among Twenty Psychologists In Their Use Of The Labels Hypothesis, Theory And Law, Wendell Johnson, John T. Wilson

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This study represents an attempt to measure the degree of extensional agreement among a group of psychologists in their usage of certain labels, which were familiar to and commonly employed by all members of the group. Specifically, the problem was to measure the degree of agreement among the twenty psychologists as to the applicability of the three labels, hypothesis, theory and law to a group of twenty statements, each of which had been labelled in one of the three ways by the original author of the statement.

Your Eyes Reveal The Secrets Of Your Interests, Herman F. Brandt Jan 1944

Your Eyes Reveal The Secrets Of Your Interests, Herman F. Brandt

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Numerous methods have been employed and tests devised for the purpose of measuring interest and interest values. Subjective measures open to the usual errors of personal judgment, prejudice and observation are those requiring an oral or written response. When individuals are questioned about their interests or preferences, they may not know them accurately or be inclined to answer according to what is expected, or find difficulty in expressing what they feel. Testing interests is for the above reasons often cumbersome and unreliable. In addition to the limitations stated above, individuals, when required to make a verbal or written response, often …


A Study Of The Improvement Of Reading Rate And Comprehension, Louise Brown, A. R. Lauer, Edith Uhl Jan 1944

A Study Of The Improvement Of Reading Rate And Comprehension, Louise Brown, A. R. Lauer, Edith Uhl

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Most studies of reading have dealt with one or the other of two factors involved: (a) speed and (b.) comprehension. The psychological act of obtaining meaning from the printed page is very involved, as in any process of symbolic interpretation. It is here contended that either of the two factors cited is in itself inadequate and that they must be combined to give a meaningful index of accomplishment. Such a concept is herein described as the reading efficiency index and is obtained by multiplying the rate in words per minute by the comprehension calculated in per cent. It compares favorably …

The Correlation Of Reading Rate With Intelligence Scores Of Grade School Children After Training In Phonics, Lester N. Gill, Myrtle Paine Gill Jan 1944

The Correlation Of Reading Rate With Intelligence Scores Of Grade School Children After Training In Phonics, Lester N. Gill, Myrtle Paine Gill

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

It is generally conceded that one learns more through the use of the eyes than through any of the other sense organs. Much of this visual learning is the result of reading. The present study was undertaken to try to determine if special training in phonics would improve reading ability, since there has been some difference of opinion concerning the value of phonics as an aid in teaching reading.
