Excerpt from A Comparison of the Intelligence and Training of School Children in a Massachusetts Town
In the Multiplication test (table 8) the Fourth grade in Cochituate did. Very much poorer work than it did on the previous tests, and the Wayland median is higher in this grade. In all the other grades, how ever, Cochituate did considerably superior work, with medians ranging from 9 to 27 points higher than those of the Wayland classes.
The test in Division (table 9) shows the Cochituate work superior except in the Fifth grade. It is also worthy of note that the Eighth grade in Cochituate does not attain a higher median than the Seventh grade. It is, however, considerably above the standard median.
In summary of the results of the Arithmetic tests it may be said that the work in Cochituate is considerably in advance of that at Way land, with only a few exceptions. The difference amounts, on the aver age, to about a year's work. This is the state of affairs which was pre dicted upon examination of the results of the intelligence tests, and it is not, therefore, surprising.
