Test pattern of mental defectives skilled in weaving

Abstract

Mentally deficient girls who had been given instructions in weaving were divided into a successful group of 20 and an unsuccessful group of 10. A series of 17 tests of intelligence was administered, but only 4 yielded scores in which the successful weavers were superior. These tests were the Seguin, Ferguson, Knox cubes, and Healy A. Three other tests were selected in which there was no difference. The ratio of the differentiating tests to the non-differentiating tests yielded an even more reliable difference between the two groups, with no overlapping.
