q2 · i? · associational · r1

Record-card examination for the 52 early-entering graduates' extreme quartiles. The author reports "a very close correspondence" between S. Q. rank and teacher-consensus rank; individual teachers' judgments could differ for pupils good or poor in their own subject. No correlation coefficient is printed.

"An examination of the more than 4,000 report cards for the 13 "Bright" and the-13 "Slow" pupils showed a very close correspondence between the rank as determined by the S. Q. and the rank as based upon the consensus of opinion of all the teachers."
