Excerpt: ...persons who, on the whole, are not at all bright, even if not positively dull in school; who have no particularly strong interests or ambitions, and who are likely on leaving school to follow the line of least resistance in earning a living, doing most things they attempt with indifferent or poor success. They represent the kind of person relatively lacking in foresight, energy, self-reliance, and all round mental capacity; the person likely to succeed fairly well only if well directed and especially trained in some particular line of work, but who, under the most favorable conditions possible, is utterly incapable of attaining a degree of achievement much beyond mediocrity. At least six of these were persons considered dull by their acquaintances. As to the remainder of the group, in the opinion of the writer, they represent persons ranging in mental capacity from that of the fifteen described above to something above the average in the case of at least one or two. The Good group, on the other hand, is composed of persons who are far above the average in mental capacity. It is safe to say that persons who become college professors or instructors before the age of thirty-five possess mental ability ranging from considerably above the average toward the very highest mental capacity. That the members of the Good group are representative of mental ability far above the average is evidenced by the nature of the positions they now hold. Eight or nine of the seventeen at present occupy college or university positions. The rest hold educational positions, mostly in normal schools of high rank, with the exception of one, who holds an important and responsible position in a philanthropic organization. There can be no reasonable doubt, therefore, ..

Download or read book The Mismeasure of Man Revised and Expanded written by Stephen Jay Gould and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2006-06-17 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive refutation to the argument of The Bell Curve. When published in 1981, The Mismeasure of Man was immediately hailed as a masterwork, the ringing answer to those who would classify people, rank them according to their supposed genetic gifts and limits. And yet the idea of innate limits—of biology as destiny—dies hard, as witness the attention devoted to The Bell Curve, whose arguments are here so effectively anticipated and thoroughly undermined by Stephen Jay Gould. In this edition Dr. Gould has written a substantial new introduction telling how and why he wrote the book and tracing the subsequent history of the controversy on innateness right through The Bell Curve. Further, he has added five essays on questions of The Bell Curve in particular and on race, racism, and biological determinism in general. These additions strengthen the book's claim to be, as Leo J. Kamin of Princeton University has said, "a major contribution toward deflating pseudo-biological 'explanations' of our present social woes."

Download or read book General and Specific Mental Abilities written by Dennis J. McFarland and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-07 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of testing mental abilities has seen the dominance of two contrasting approaches, psychometrics and neuropsychology. These two traditions have different theories and methodologies, but overlap considerably in the tests they use. Historically, psychometrics has emphasized the primacy of a general factor, while neuropsychology has emphasized specific abilities that are dissociable. This issue about the nature of human mental abilities is important for many practical concerns. Questions such as gender, ethnic, and age-related differences in mental abilities are relatively easy to address if they are due to a single dominant trait. Presumably such a trait can be measured with any collection of complex cognitive tests. If there are many specific mental abilities, these would be much harder to measure and associated social issues would be more difficult to resolve. The relative importance of general and specific abilities also has implications for educational practices. This book includes the diverse opinions of experts from several fields including psychometrics, neuropsychology, speech language and hearing, and applied psychology.
