Excerpt from The Relation Between Dependency and Retardation: A Study of Public School Children Known, to the Minneapolis Associated Charities
Our schools are mines of material which by the researcher's perseverance and skill must be fused into a useful product; Indi vidual experience isolated may mean little; individual experience, amassed, arranged, interpreted, becomes history upon which the future may be builded. It is indeed a source of gratification when the Officials of our schools appreciate this.
I am grateful to Miss Jean E. Hirsch of the Medical Art Shop at the University of Minnesota for giving her time and skill to the execution of the figures.

Seller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In this book, the author explores the relationship between dependency and retardation. Using research conducted in Minneapolis in 1917, the author establishes a norm for retardation in a typical group of school children and compares this to the rates of retardation among children from families receiving financial assistance. The author finds that dependent families have a disproportionately higher number of retarded children, and that the average age of dependent children in each grade is higher than that of non-dependent children. Some of the possible causes of this retardation are discussed, including malnutrition, the instability of the families, and poor nutrition and heredity. This book sheds light on the complex relationship between poverty and academic achievement, and its insights remain relevant today, highlighting the importance of addressing the causes of retardation to promote educational equity and improve outcomes for all children This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331302155_0
