Book excerpt: This is a valuable study of a group of superior children, with an analysis of their physical, mental and educational development, and their practical interests. They were found, on the whole, to show all-round superiority, to come from superior families, and to be capable of richer educational experiences than the usual school curriculum affords. -The Journal of Delinquency, Vol. 7* * * * * From the EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION. It is becoming a commonplace to say that our school system fails to detect and to furnish adequate training for the capable child. A certain doctrine, fortifying itself with the name of democracy, shrinks from the fundamental fact of individual differences and deprecates in the name of equality anything but a uniform treatment of school children. This doctrine is false and is based upon a faulty conception of democracy. The evidence that men are not born equal is conclusive. If, then, the fact of differences-many, varied, and wide-is accepted (as indeed it must be by anyone who approaches the facts with an open mind) then the corrolary that training should be different must also be accepted. Nor does this acceptance of differentiated training relate solely or mainly to gifted children. "The world's best brains fully trained" is only a partial program which should be replaced by the wider program "everybody's brains fully trained." In this monograph the author brings into sharp relief the superior child. The "Child Study" of an earlier day, under the influence of the tendency to specialization which is so generally evident, has been broken up into the intensive study of types of children; and among these none is so attractive as the superior type. Means for detecting children of this type and an analysis of their characteristics are surely important educational considerations. "To do justice to superiority we must understand it." The reader will seek and find in the following treatment a better understanding of this superiority. Whether it will enable him to do justice to superior children will depend upon his ability to use this knowledge. At any rate, there is no virtue in ignorance. There are gifted children in every school system. The author takes us into one of these systems and describes in minute detail the sort of superior children she found. We do not propose in this introduction to anticipate her in the treatment of her material. One thing, however, stands out in the entire discussion, namely, the all-around superiority of the capable child selected on the basis of intelligence testing. For example, according to the data here presented the superior child is in the matter of interest always at an advantage. He not only has keener and more vitalizing interests, but he has more of them. Moreover, he makes greater effort, is more socially adaptable, and possesses higher qualities of leadership. In short, he is superior. -B. R. Buckingham, Editor.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Some High School Seniors of Superior Intelligence When the personnel Of the superior and control groups had been determined, the high-school records were consulted and all available data gathered. Besides this, as many teachers as pos sible were asked to give their estimate Of each pupil's intelligence, and to rate each one in various mental, moral, and physical traits. This was done in personal conference with the investigator. Next a questionnaire dealing primarily with interests was given to every young person individually by the writer herself. At the same time an attempt was made to secure the pupil's friendly cooperation. Moreover, it was stated at the beginning Of the questionnaire that the investigator would be willing to give a brief analysis Of your mentality and indicate the kinds of work at which you will probably best succeed. This invitation was intended to serve somewhat as bait. Twelve Of the superior group and three of the control group asked for interviews, which, of course, furnished an excellent opportunity for studying the pupils and supplementing or correcting data. The writer also made it a point to have personal talks with the rest of the young people, either in their own homes or elsewhere. For the most part, the superior group was very friendly and interested. This was less true of the control group, in spite of the fact that any sug gestion Of their lesser ability was carefully avoided. Getting back their questionnaires sometimes proved an arduous task. In the end, however, remarkably complete data were Obtained from both groups, and the writer is much indebted to her fifty young friends - for such they became - for their careful and detailed replies.
