P5YC1-PHIS1L TESTS INCOMPLETE Correlation Between Mental and Bodily Ability Not Yet Demonstrated “Not all of the psychological and phy sical tests which have been given the students of the University during the past few months have as yet been corre lated, but enough has been accom plished,” says Dr. John F. Bovard, dean of the school of physical education, who has been organizing and directing the work, “to show that the results were not what we expected to find. “I am disappointed,” said Dr. Bo vard, “because I hoped the tests would show that there was a positive correla tion between physical and mental abil ity, and despite the records, I still think it is true. The only thing which we have found out is that the general run of stu dents here ranks as high as at any other college. “We must back up and start over again and find out where the fault lies. It seems that the trouble is not with the mental tests but with the physical tests. So many of these experiments are in the form of a trick which some men can perform because they know the trick and therefore get a high standing, while others do not rank so highly be cause they have not mastered the diffi culties of the trick. To correct these faults, we must either have tests which none are proficient in or else give every one the same amount of time to practice and learn. “Another disturbing factor is that so many of the fellows don’t try. They do just about enough to get by and let it go at that. Here a psychological factor enters in which is disturbing in so many physical and nJbntal tests.” The mental test, which was given the students, is known as the Otis Mental Ability Test. It consists of a serios of questions and problems, presented in such a manner that they must be analy tically considered in order to be solved. It is a higher type of mental examina tion than the Binet test, which guages only the average adult and the superior adult. The Otis test is essentially a col lege test. The first attempt at a correlation of this kind was accomplished recently at the University of Indiana by Dr. Samuel Edwin Smith, a psychiatrist who has done much in that field. Dr. Smith found by comparing the football men and the gen eral run of students that the football men ranked a little higher than the oth ers. However, no data was ever pub lished and the experiment was lost to the public. Dr. Bovard does not intend to stop his experiments with what he has found by those tests. He will have to spend some time in reorganizing his material, dis carding some of it and investigating new methods. He hopes in the end to prove that there is some correlation between mental and physical ability. RETAIL PROBLEMS ARE OUTLINED BY FACULTY (Continued from page one) several talks were made. James R.
