About this Item

First edition, presumed first printing of a booklet for parents on standardized testing in schools, published as a part of a series of public health booklets by the Public Affairs Committee, a nonprofit organization dedicated to families and public welfare issues in the United States.

This booklet explains why testing is needed, what it measures, and possible flaws and pitfalls of this kind of assessment. Provides a very interesting look into how psychologists and educators worked together to assess children's intelligence and abilities in America at this time. Single vol. (7" by 5"), pp. 28, illus. in original illus. bright green wrps. Seller Inventory # 24002999
