This book presents a comprehensive guide to the groundbreaking psychological testing methods that proved to be an essential tool for the US Army in both world wars.

The author delves into the origins, development, and validation of these tests, providing insights into their scientific rigor and practical applications. The book highlights the positive impact of psychological testing on military efficiency, allowing the Army to optimize personnel placement and training while minimizing attrition due to mental unfitness.
