A comparison of norms for the Minnesota Rate of Manipulation Test

Abstract

Test scores on Placing and Turning were available for 1,117 persons referred by the Cleveland Jewish Vocational Service. These subjects included 365 high school boys and girls, 407 men, and 345 women; their ages ranged from 13 to 58 years, and their mean intelligence was above the average of the general population. Percentile norms for these groups are given for scores on both Placing and Turning, and these are compared with norms reported by the Educational Test Bureau and with results reported by Teegarden for 500 males and 360 females from the Cincinnati Employment Center (see 17: 2907, 2908). Relationship between scores on Turning and on Placing, skewness of distributions of scores, and correlations between scores and (1) intelligence test scores and (2) age are given.
