A Farm Knowledge test

Abstract

A Farm Knowledge Test of 30 multiple-choice items was devised for use in Virginia. The test discriminates between persons with rural and those with urban backgrounds. While it does not correlate significantly with number of years of farm experience, it has been found useful in discriminating the experience range of rural people, and has proven practical in prison and pre-parole classification work.
