Crosland, Psychology Professor,
Defends Reliability of 'IQ' Tests
Intelligence tests for young children, are they reliable or not re
liable ?
Dr. H. R. Crosland, associate professor of psychology of the Uni
versity, declared yesterday that he was not greatly impressed by the
various statements concerning the inaccuracy of intelligence tests for
young children.
‘In the first place, to declare a test inaccurate one must have
an accurate test to use as a basis of proof. We have no such proven
Workers Reconnect
Water Line at Night
Laborers worked from 8 o’clock
Saturday evening until 5 Sunday
morning reconnecting the Univer
sity water line on Thirteenth street
opposite Commerce building, ac
cording to information from E. L.
Lewis, superintendent of Univer
sity buildings and grounds.
The new connections, Mr. Lewis
said, are for use in the new law
library as well as other future con
nections.
The work was necessarily done
at night when water in the great
est number of University buildings
could be shut off with the least
inconvenience, Lewis said.

test for measuring the intelligence
of children,” the instructor stated.
“Secondly, it has long been
known that tests for young chil
dren are not quite as reliable as
those for older children. All chil
dren show little difference in in
telligence when very young as
their reactions are very much the
same.”
Using a chart to illustrate his
point, Dr. Crosland showed how
the intelligence of a group of
children remains nearly the same
until the growth and development
of the individual children bring
about a change in the learning
curve and at the age of eight or
nine years the curves are widely
distributed.
“There are two men, however,
Dr. Gesell of Yale, and Dr. Kuhl
mann of Wisconsin, who have been
fairly successful in testing chil
dren from 11-2 to 2 1-2 years of
age,” Dr. Crosland continued, “but
generally speaking, the tests from
1 to 3 years will not work as well
as for older children.”
