College achievement, intelligence, personality, and emotion

Abstract

89 students of sophomore rank or above in a college of about 1200 students were given a series of tests and ratings. From the intercorrelations obtained, the author concludes that from a knowledge of the Thorndike score of a student in college, with his score on the Colgate schedule C2, with a satisfactory estimate of his emotional steadiness, and a record of his emotional reliability or consistency as measured by the Flemming revision of the Pressey X-O Test, we would be able to predict with some assurance his academic achievement in terms of grades.
