About This Book

The book explains scientific methods for measuring mental ability and presents the Mentimeter system of tests developed by an educational psychologist and a collaborator. It outlines the principles behind mental testing, criteria for reliable instruments, and different test types, then surveys practical applications in education, industry, and military settings. Chapters provide guidance on administering and scoring tests, interpreting results for selection, placement, and training, and include sample Mentimeter instruments plus trade and skill tests. Emphasis is placed on replacing guesswork with measurement to improve vocational guidance, personnel selection, and the efficiency of educational and industrial practices.
