Reviewer's interpretive synthesis (type e) of the six-column comparison table of the 1911 series, noting shifts would often restore 1908 placements. Whether results obtained with the 1908 scale bear on 1911 ranking, the reviewer writes, only use of the 1911 scale could determine.

"second, that the following tests should be shifted: VI, 3. 4 and •"> 1o VII; VII, 3 to VI; VII, 5 to VIII; VIII, 4 to IX; IX, 1 and 2 to X; X, 3, 4 and 5 to XI or XII; XII, 2, 3 and 4 to XIII or Xrn'. It is noteworthy that many of these shifts would return the tests to the same places they held in the 1908 series."
