Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

University administrators are perpetually faced with decisions regarding the readmission of students dismissed for academic failure.

Individual differences and group differences in scholastic performance are increasingly important areas of concern in classroom teaching, school guidance, psychological counseling, as well as in parent-student educational and vocational planning.

American College Test Scores As Predictors Of College Success, Clinton W. Chapman Ii

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

The prediction of academic success in institutions of higher learning is an important problem for those persons concerned with admission requirements and placement programs.

The test was developed to make procedures of admissions, guidance, placement and scholarship appointments more efficient. The American College Test battery consists of four tests: English Usage Test, Mathematics Usage Test, Social Studies Reading Test, and Natural Sciences Reading …

With increased study and research on various factors in the aging process and how they affect the health of elderly people, these figures may go even higher.

Some California Psychological Inventory Scales As Indicators Of Personal Adjustment And Academic Efficiency, Georgia Shepherd Chiles

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Following the success of Alfred Binet's test of intellectual ability, many tests with many different purposes were developed. Some of these tests are referred to as tests of ability, others seek to establish the subject's typical performance or how he is most likely to act in a given situation. Personality tests fall into this second class. The two general methods of personality are referred to as unstructured and structured techniques. The unstructured method is time-consuming. One possibility is to make many personal observations of the subject in a given situation. We may use tests called the projective technique in which …
