TUMIN, MELVIN M. – 1962
THE REPORT OF UNESCO COMMITTEE STATED THAT THERE WERE NOT MEASURABLE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN WHAT IS DUE TO INNATE CAPACITY AND WHAT IS THE RESULT OF ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES, TRAINING, AND EDUCATION. TESTS WHICH HAVE MADE ALLOWANCE FOR MOST DIFFERENCES IN ENVIRONMENTAL OPPORTUNITIES HAVE SHOWN ESSENTIAL SIMILARITY IN MENTAL CHARACTERISTICS AMONG ALL…

PIELSTICK, N.L.; WOODRUFF, A.B. – 1964
AN ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO DEVELOP METHODS FOR OBSERVING AND MEASURING CURIOSITY IN CHILDREN. SPECIFICALLY, THE STUDY WAS DIRECTED TOWARD STIMULUS VARIABLES RELATED TO CURIOSITY AROUSAL, THE RELATIONSHIP OF AGE AND IQ TO INDEXES OF CURIOSITY, AND THE EFFECTS OF CURIOSITY ON LEARNING. SUBJECTS WERE APPROXIMATELY 30 CHILDREN FROM BOTH THE SECOND AND THE…

In a study in which Asian-American, white, and black children in grades 2-6 in a California school district were given a battery of tests including measures of IQ, scholastic achievement, and short-term memory, factor analysis of the tests yielded two main factors identified as Level I (memory) and Level II (general intelligence) in Jensen's…

Several independent large-scale studies…

Many chronic and current educational…

KIRBY, CLARA L. – 1968
THE STUDY WAS DESIGNED TO DETERMINE WHETHER SCORES FROM A CLOZE TEST WOULD DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM SCORES ON SELECTED STANDARDIZED SILENT AND ORAL READING TESTS. PUPILS IN GRADES 1 THROUGH 6 IN AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN THE MIDWEST (N-178) SERVED AS SUBJECTS. THE MEAN INTELLIGENCE QUOTIENT FOR THE TOTAL GROUP WAS 101.7. THE VARIABLES CONSIDERED…

Proger, Barton B.; Leiss, Robert H. – 1976
Effects of the different components of the Distar language program were tested on 48 trainable mentally retarded (TMR) children. Three designs were used comparing IQ, sex, continuation status, selected standardized test results, and replicates. Results indicated that the degree of previous formal language training (continuation status) did not…
