[Review of the book The Present Status of Written Examinations and Suggestions for their Improvement

Abstract

Reviews the book, The Present Status of Written Examinations and Suggestions for their Improvement by Walter S. Monroe and Lloyd B. Souders (1923). This very excellent bulletin is just what its title indicates. It is both informing and suggestive. It contains important original studies. It should be carefully read by all teachers. And while none should neglect to ponder, the more unballasted members of the profession should especially try to discover the meaning of the perfectly indispensable reservations tucked into two paragraphs on pages 61 and 62. By and by the newer type of written examinations will find their proper place beside the old. This study should help to hasten that day. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
