Described is a policy of interpreting psychological test data to children capable of profiting from the interpretation, and given is a partial transcript of an interpretive session to an 8-year-old male with an IQ of 75. (DB)

Data on the predictive and concurrent validity of the SVIB-M Engineer Scale were studied to demonstrate the divergent ways in which validity could be reported and interpreted. (Author)

Article describes problems encountered by school districts over publication of student reading test scores, and lists ways to insure correct test result interpretation. (SP)

Judgements based on several categories of responses supported the hypothesis that college males show significantly more abstract shifting to concrete responses. College females were found to make significantly more abstract-ending responses when all categories of responses were dichotomized as either abstract-ending or concrete-ending. (Author)

Clients with flat profiles on the Strong Vocational Interest Blank (SVIB) represent a difficult counseling problem. For such clients, a method is proposed to rescore parts of the SVIB in the framework of Holland's theory of vocational choice. (Author)

A computer-based system for converting test data into locally-validated counseling information was developed and field tested with potential vocational school students. Two data information conversion procedures were used: similarity (centour) scores based on discriminant analyses and success estimates based on experience tables. Illustrations of…

The main effects and interactions of different methods of giving student IQ information to teachers (including the self-fulfilling prophesy hypothesis of Rosenthal's "Pygmalion in the Classroom"), sex of teacher, teacher opinion of IQ testing, and student socioeconomic level are investigated. (DG)

Twenty-one judges from each of three clinical experience levels judged 90 MMPI profiles as being either neurotic or psychotic. Judges receiving feedback after each trial achieved a higher accuracy rate than judges receiving no feedback. (Author)

Objective procedures for converting test data into counseling information are discussed and illustrated, with special attention being given to similarity scores and similarity score profiles. Local validity studies are needed to support data-information conversion procedures. Computer-based systems are also valuable. (Author)

The hypothesis investigated was that the correlation between the Edwards SD scale and Rotter's IE scale were negative. Results were as predicted, thus pointing out the dangers in assuming that tests similarly named must measure equivalent constructs. (Author/CG)
