Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the use of psychological testing in educational and career counseling in high schools. Following the introduction of group testing in the early 20th century, the author conducted research studies involving over 1,200 high school students over several years, utilizing the Stanford-Binet Scale, and Army Examinations a and b. The study examined the relationship between intelligence quotient and academic success, with results indicating that psychological tests could be used as valid predictors of probable school success. Furthermore, the author conducted a guidance experiment with 22 mid-year high school students, in which they received subject selection counseling based on mental test results and other relevant data. The results showed that the guided group had significantly fewer failures compared to a similar-sized unguided group, with none failing two or more subjects. This book is valuable to educators and counselors seeking to enhance their understanding of the role of intelligence testing in secondary school educational and vocational guidance.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the ways in which standardized psychological testing was first applied to high school students. By studying a wide array of pupils, the author demonstrates that intelligence testing holds real value as a tool for planning high school curriculum and predicting probable student achievement. The author argues that, when used alongside other tools such as teacher recommendations, such tests are useful in accurately gauging a student's abilities and tailoring their education to suit their strengths. The book presents evidence that the integration of psychological testing into high school counseling not only improves academic outcomes, but can also aid in guiding students towards appropriate career paths. The author makes a strong case for the positive impact careful assessment can have on high school students and contends that intelligence testing, when properly contextualized with other data, can provide educators with critical insights into the best way to nurture each individual student's potential.
