She was a very quiet, unassuming member of the class. She had remarkable powers of concentration, always finished her work well in advance of the others and then found work for herself until the class was ready to go on with a new subject. With the children in both work and play she made no effort to lead them, and although they recognized the fact that her work was superior to theirs, they showed no resentment toward B because she never made them feel her superiority. B showed a mental poise that I have rarely, if ever, found in a child. It was not so much a matter of a sudden keen grasp of a subject, which might or might not be permanent. She seemed to have the power, which is usually met only in mature minds, of weighing, reasoning, and then placing for permanent use the matter with which she was dealing. [3] Always B appealed to me as a normal child, with unusual mental poise. She was not at all uncanny or tiresomely intelligent. _From a former classroom teacher_. MENTAL MEASUREMENTS Measurements of general intelligence of B have been made as follows: DATE BIRTHDAY STANFORD ARMY ALPHA AGE -BINET POINTS OF B MA IQ B Norm Mar. 3, 1921 8-3 15-8 189 Apr. 8, 1922 9-4 17-6 188 84 (Form 5) 0 Dec. 29, 1924 12-1 142 (Form 5) PHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS B was measured at the age of 9 years 4 months and again at the age of 12 years 1 month, in light indoor clothing, with the following results: _Height and weight_.
