_Directions for Scoring the Test._
The score in this test is the number of sentences for which the correct
conclusion is checked. The stencil furnished with the test booklets
makes this process of counting the number correct so simple that a child
can do it almost at a glance. The degree of intellectual capacity is
indicated roughly by the score as follows:
Scores 0 to 1 indicate Low Average or Inferior Ability
Scores 2 to 5 indicate Average Ability
Scores 6 to 8 indicate High Average Ability
Scores 9 to 12 indicate Superior Ability
Attention should be invited here again to the fact that this is a new
test and that its reliability and implications will need to be carefully
tested and measured before one can be sure what it measures or how
accurate it is.
