Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mental Status of Rural School Children: Report of Preliminary Sanitary Survey Made in New Castle County, Delaware, With a Description of the Tests Employed At the request of the Delaware State board of health, State board of education, and Cooperative Educational Association, the United States Public Health Service undertook a sanitary survey of the rural schools of New Castle County, including the mental status of the school children. This survey is part of a series of cooperative investigations of educational, health, and sociological conditions in the State of Delaware by the Public Health Service, the National Bureau of Education, the Children´s Bureau, and other agencies. In order to supply certain data desired by the Children´s Bureau in their investigations, the mental survey herein reported was conducted preliminary to the general survey. It continued from January 6 to May 1, 1916. During this investigation 3,793 children were studied. Of these, 19, or 0.5 per cent of the total, were found to be de¿nitely feeble-minded and in need of careful supervision or institutional treatment. In addition, 50 other children, or 1.3 per cent of the total number examined, exhibited abnormal mental symptoms to such an extent as to be considered probable mental defectives. At the beginning of this survey a majority of the school children were tested by the Binet-Simon scale, and those who showed symptoms of mental abnormality were examined by supplemental methods. The routine giving of the Binet tests to every pupil was soon replaced by a briefer sifting process for the purpose of ¿nding those children of low intelligence or those in whom mental peculiarities existed. This brief examination was composed of questions and tests suited in a general way to the child´s age and school grade. If, during this preliminary examination or sifting process, symptoms arose which suggested mental abnormality, the case was examined more thoroughly. At this secondary examination every effort was made to arrive at a correct diagnosis in so far as one sitting would permit, and each suspected pupil was given Goddard´s modification of the Binet tests, together with other tests and questions. This re-examination lasted from 20 to 50 minutes. In the city and town schools which were graded or partially graded, the children were questioned one at a time in the principal´s office or other room.
