The Content Of The Beginning Course In Psychology, Earle E. Emme
The Content Of The Beginning Course In Psychology, Earle E. Emme
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Gordon W. Allport (1) in his recent volume on "Personality" makes it very clear that psychologists are at work upon many factors, conditions, and uniformity of events related' to individuals; so that sometimes "science regards the individual as a mere bothersome accident" and is usually at work upon a "somewhat shadowy portrait." He goes on to point out that such psychological studies are not very satisfying when compared with the "living individual models" from which the data is taken. Thoroughgoing psychology cannot omit the individual at work with his intellect, motives, emotions, and his desires for personal security and efficiency.
Psychic And Hypnotic Effects On Gastric Motility In Man, R. E. Scantlebury
Psychic And Hypnotic Effects On Gastric Motility In Man, R. E. Scantlebury
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The multiplicity of psychic phenomena which inhibit the hunger contractions in man led to an attempt to analyze their effect and to determine what influence hypnotic suggestion might have on the movement of the empty stomach and to determine a possible route by which these effects might occur.
Predicting Success In Teaching, Wm. H. Batson
Predicting Success In Teaching, Wm. H. Batson
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
During the school year 1929-30 the writer administered the Moss Teaching Aptitude Test to 91 students taking the first year work in Education. The majority of students at that time were in their sophomore year. These results were laid aside and several years later a check-up was made on the number of this group that were teaching and a rating scale was submitted to the administrative officers in the schools where these people were teaching. After the superintendents' reports were received several series of correlations were made including relationships between the aptitude test scores and superintendents' reports ; between aptitude …

Psycho-Physical Analysis Of The Betts Visual Acuity Test, H. C. Schepler
Psycho-Physical Analysis Of The Betts Visual Acuity Test, H. C. Schepler
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Although visual acuity is of chief concern to the optometrist from the professional standpoint, the physicist should be no less concerned from the standpoint of its applications to work in optics and illumination. Visual acuity is indeed difficult to measure and many types of acuity tests have been devised. The Clason acuity meter and the Snellen chart are the accepted standards used by optometrists. Another test for measuring acuity, which is administered on the stereoscope, is one of many visual tests that has been developed by Betts, Director of Teacher Education, State Normal School, Oswego, N. Y., who worked jointly …
An Analysis Of The Implications And Reference Of The Word "Intelligence", C. E. Tuthill
An Analysis Of The Implications And Reference Of The Word "Intelligence", C. E. Tuthill
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The meaning of the word "intelligence'' is seen to vary from one context to another. The term "multiordinal" has been applied by Korzybski to refer to words the meaning of which is indicated by the context and depends upon the order of abstraction involved. That the meaning of the word "intelligence" is many-valued or multiordinal may be seen from some of the following quotations taken from the writings of leading men in the field.
An Objective Experiment With A Clairvoyant (Mind-Readers), E. Emme
An Objective Experiment With A Clairvoyant (Mind-Readers), E. Emme
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The assumption is that the clairvoyant (fortune-teller) can guess accurately personality facts concerning an individual. Readings are given in devious ways. The most common forms are crystal gazing. use of cards, use of tea leaves. and sometimes a combination with palmistry. Individuals are usually so curious, or in such an excitable or careless state of mind that reported findings from such persons are very inaccurate. In order to get at an analysis of the whole procedure as objectively as possible a plan was devised.
Techniques In Studying The Effect Of Self-Support Upon The Grades Of College Students, Dwane R. Collins
Techniques In Studying The Effect Of Self-Support Upon The Grades Of College Students, Dwane R. Collins
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Self-support has become a major interest on today's campus, and there are many conflicting opinions regarding its advantages and disadvantages. Regardless of whether it has more advantages than disadvantages or vice versa, self-support is a living problem and must be faced. Hence we must be concerned with its relationships to the many aspects of the life of the student. The disagreements are chiefly concerned with the health, extra-curricular-activity participation, social life, happiness, schedule load, and scholastic standing of the students engaged in self-support. We shall confine our discussion to the relationship of self-support and the academic grades of college students.
A Preliminary Investigation Of The Validity Of The Emme Home Adjustment Scale, Lyle K. Henry
A Preliminary Investigation Of The Validity Of The Emme Home Adjustment Scale, Lyle K. Henry
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
There is a great deal of interest at present in personality and adjustment inventories. They are looked upon by educators as a very promising technique both in counseling and in vocational guidance. Probably the present interest in personality tests has been stimulated by the comparatively recent appearance and use of two particular tests, namely the Bernreuter Personality Inventory and the Bell Adjustment Inventory. Each of these tests measures four attributes of the individual and provides weighted scoring of the items. There are several difficulties, however, in regard to the use and interpretation of personality tests. For one thing there is …
Concerning The Establishment Of A Criterion And Certain Incidental Points Relations To Validity Coefficients, A. R. Lauer
Concerning The Establishment Of A Criterion And Certain Incidental Points Relations To Validity Coefficients, A. R. Lauer
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
There is a persistent demand for validity coefficients of some sort in the field of applied psychology. The simplest criterion is often chosen. The Binet-Simon test has been validated almost entirely against an academic criterion. This may or may not be justified as there are many who believe that intelligence is more than mere scholastic aptitude. With more recent explorations, by factor analysis and other techniques, this belief has considerable experimental support. We have thus sought for a criterion and too often have been content with that which gives the highest validity coefficients.
Visual Acuity Measurements With The Betts Test Cards, H. C. Schepler
Visual Acuity Measurements With The Betts Test Cards, H. C. Schepler
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Three commonly accepted notations for visual acuity are: (1) the Snellen System, which follows an arithmetic progression, (2) the Clason Decimal System, which bears a constant relationship to the Snellen System, and (3) the Snell and Sterling System, which follows a geometrical progression and is commonly referred to as the system of the American Medical Association. Visual acuity is indeed difficult to measure and many types of acuity tests have been devised. One such test, which is administered on the stereoscope, has been devised by Betts, Director of Teacher Education, State Normal School, Oswego, N. Y., who worked jointly with …
Interests And Personaloty Traits Of Undergraduate Students In Relation To Their Success Or Failure In The Study Of Psychology, Leigh C. Douglass, Janet Day
Interests And Personaloty Traits Of Undergraduate Students In Relation To Their Success Or Failure In The Study Of Psychology, Leigh C. Douglass, Janet Day
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Several different personality inventories and the Strong Vocational Interest Blank were studied, item by item, for evidences of any common patterns of interests or personality traits of students in the highest and lowest thirds of a beginning course in psychology. The aim was to find what personality qualities might be associated with ability to succeed in the elementary study of psychology. Some significant differences were discovered, showing distinct personality qualities of the two groups. In general it was found that the high group is certain of its opinions, is radical, is introvert, is emotionally stable, has intellectual interests, is characterized …

The Relationship Between Brain Rhythms And Certain Muscular Rhythms, Charles N. Cofer
The Relationship Between Brain Rhythms And Certain Muscular Rhythms, Charles N. Cofer
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
In this study an attempt was made to find out whether there is a relationship between the electrical potentials from the left motor area of the brain and the tremor of the third finger of the right hand. Some records also were taken from the visual area and from the index finger. The brain wave and the tremor were recorded simultaneously on sensitized paper.

The Reliability Of Certain Scales For Measuring Attitudes, A. R. Lauer, Robert Taylor
The Reliability Of Certain Scales For Measuring Attitudes, A. R. Lauer, Robert Taylor
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
A list of 100 words were checked for five degrees of preference by 118 adult male subjects of post-college age. The attitude categories were arbitrarily called; liberal, socialistic, sports, risk and annoyance, law enforcement, racial and religious, and cultural. The reliability coefficients ranged from +.77 down to +.29. The highest reliabilities were found for the attitudes of law enforcement, liberalism, and risk and annoyance. The lowest reliabilities were for the attitudes toward race and religion, socialism and the sports.
Inoculation Against Spring Fever In The Elementary Course In Zoology, Fae M. Shawhan
Inoculation Against Spring Fever In The Elementary Course In Zoology, Fae M. Shawhan
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Webster's dictionary defines inoculation as "the act or process of improving." Also, I find that "inoculation may be protective, when the substance injected aims to secure immunity; or curative, when an anti-toxin is injected as a remedy."

Effect Of Auditory And Visual Stimuli On Brain Potential Rhythms, Betty M. Martinson
Effect Of Auditory And Visual Stimuli On Brain Potential Rhythms, Betty M. Martinson
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
This study attempts to compare the blocking of the Berger rhythm caused by visual and auditory sensations. Four stimuli were used - a bright light of one hundred (100) watts, a dim light of twenty-five (25) watts, a thousand cycle tone at approximately seventy (70) decibels, and a similar tone at approximately forty (40) decibels. A series of two hundred stimuli composed of fifty of each of these arranged in random order was presented to the subject. The records were read for latency and perseveration of the blocking and the four types of stimulus were compared.
The Effect Of Training In Phonics Upon Reading Ability At The College Level, Maurine Rogers
The Effect Of Training In Phonics Upon Reading Ability At The College Level, Maurine Rogers
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The purpose of this experiment was to ascertain the effect of phonic ability upon reading ability at the college level. The subjects were 72 poor readers from the lowest 20 per cent of reading scores of University of Iowa freshmen. Half of these readers formed an experimental group and a like half a control group. Vocabulary tests and pronunciation tests composed of the same words were given. These were accompanied by paragraph comprehension and oral reading tests. The experimental group then took a period of individual phonic training at the end of which both experimental and control groups were retested. …
An Item Analysis Of The Adjustment Questionnaire, Emma Mccloy Layman
An Item Analysis Of The Adjustment Questionnaire, Emma Mccloy Layman
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
Following a preliminary analysis of 782 personality test items, a questionnaire of 97 items of the yes-no type was administered to a group of 276 freshman men. A statistical analysis of the results was made, and the list was reduced to 67 items. Tetrachoric correlation coefficients were computed between these 67 items and these were submitted to a factor analysis, using Thurstone's technique. It was found that at least 12 factors are necessary to account for the intercorrelations between the items. Of the 67 items, 38 were found to be sufficiently pure that they had factor loadings greater than.50 for …
The Comparison Between Electrodermal Response And Hedonic Tone, Clifford E. Jurgensen
The Comparison Between Electrodermal Response And Hedonic Tone, Clifford E. Jurgensen
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The impressive method of single exposure has long been used to study feeling tone. The expressive method of electrodermal response is similarly used. If both of these methods are valid for the above purpose when used alone, there should be agreement between the two when used together. Essentially the purpose of this study is to determine the degree of relationship between these two methods of study.

The Effect Of Training Upon The Handedness Preference Of The Rat In An Eating Activity, Robert L. Milisen
The Effect Of Training Upon The Handedness Preference Of The Rat In An Eating Activity, Robert L. Milisen
Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science
The problem of sidedness has become important in the last few years due to the relationship which may exist between it and certain disabilities such as stuttering, reading and spelling. Although much work has been done with sidedness of human subjects, many factors could not be studied or controlled; therefore, rats were used in this study.
