A PSYCHOLOGICAL EXPERIMENT Statement of the Problem To discover the tastes and interest of seniors at Horace Mann School. Subjects Having ages of either 17 or 18 years, 198 seniors were chosen for testing. Although the group resides on the west side of Gary, the majority are literate. The individual types are boys and girls. Strange as it may appear, there existed among them a feverish project for further research. Results Though this test was intended to indicate senior in¬ terests and tastes, it actually measures only what the senior says are his tastes and interests. One should also note that all the independent variables, except the one being tested, have been properly controlled. And without deductive reasoning, to which we are most grateful, the results of this test could not have been at¬ tained. Nor validation, the Standard Deviation Test, an in¬ strument of extreme accuracy, has shown this experi¬ ment to be highly precise. This, no doubt, may allow people to accept this test as scientific material. This is important. For man, through the gaining of facts by scientific experimentation, has replaced ignorance and superstition with accurate knowledge. A QUESTIONNAIRE Question 1.
