CHAPTBR II. THB PSYCHOLOGY UPOH WHICH THB CAUS MBTHOD IH KDUCaTIOH 13 BASSD. The scientiflo basis for many individual differences, and for the understanding and deTelopment of the ohild are found in certain psychological principles. The beginnim;8 of personality . — In the beginnings of in- dividual life human personality consists of tne following inheri- tances: (1) the sensory systems, through wiUoh the enrlroninent acts on the individual; (2) certain simple but all important tendencies, instincts and appetites; (3) certain capacities wiiich are wiiolly latent at first but come into action with development; (4) sii-ipls powers of muscular action by which responses are made; and (5) a sense of sAtlsf action or dissatisfaction growing out of action. This neans that all human beings have the same qualitative make-up; how- ever, it does not mean that all have the saas quantitative make-up. Variations in au man capacities . — Differences in sensory and neurological equipment, in fact slight differences in the total oriiianic equipment are now, for the most part, taken for granted. According to the widely accepted theory of tiie original nature of man. every individual at birth Is as different in the construction of the cell combinations that aaks up the nervous system, as he is in external bodily features and c/iaracteri sties. Consequently it is reasonable to believe that there are both possibilities and limi- tations in the development of any one normal brain. Hiat is meant bv intelligence . .. According to Goddazd, "Ths chief determiner of human conduct Is a unitary mental process which ws call Intelligence; that process is conditioned by a nervous mechanism that Is inborn; the degree of efficiency to be attained by that nervous meciianlsm and the consequent grade of intelligence II 13, or mental level for each individual is determined by the kind of chromosomes thait come together with the union of the germ cells; it is but little affected by any later influences, except such ser- ioW« accidents as may destroy part of the mechanism," Stem, on the other hand, defines intelligence not as a unitary mental pro- cess but a8*a general capacity of an individual consciously to ad- Just his blinking to new requirements."^*^ Very similar to the latter is Dearborn's definition, namely, intelligence is "the capacity to learn or profit by experience." According to Teraan,^ an individ- ual is intelligent in proportion as he is able to carry on abstract thinking. The mea surement of intelligence. — During the paat few years, the expression in psychology that has been repeated perhaps most often, is, "The measurement of intelli^^ence. " While some psychologists affirm that general intelligence cannot be measured, the majority are of the opinion that its most important phases can be measured. All admit the diversity of intellecual capacities. yy According to Binet, tixe child differs from the adult, not only in the degree and quantity of his intelligence, but also in its form. Psychological studies of school children by means of standaxdk ized intelligence tests have shown that there are aauij grades of intelligence, ranging from idiocy on the one hand to genius on the s other, Terinan sxiows that in testing a thous^ind or more children of the same chronological age, it is to be expected that the range X Human Efficiency and Levels of Intellifcjence. lage 1.

Cjiapter I, 14, in mental age will extend from tiiose who are tiiree or four years retarded to those who are three or four years accelerated. This is in agreement with 3tarch, who states that mental abiliUes (includ- ing general intelligence) range without break from the lowest to the highest* Q^her individual d ifferences. — Children arc firot of all indlTl duals and not types. "In the physical Ciiaracteri sties of the sense and motor organs, in the strength of instincts and capacities, and in the nature of their preTious experiences and inborn and ac- quired interests — no two children are exactly alike.** By the time oi^dldren enter the public school, they differ from one another not only because of different starts at birth, but aUo because of early development, training, and home influences, as well as factors of personal hygiene. The general causes of individual differences may be suoMd up as heredity, growth, disease, environmental faotorf and practice. How to understand the individual cr^ld. — Together with mental tests, we need the case history of a cxUld, including an analysis of the determining factors and special Individual tendencisi Out of this may come an understanding of needs and capacities of tne individual, and, am a result, a just treatment of each pupil. yormation of habl^a. .. The chief problem in the education of an individual is to bring about the desire and the ability to make the right Ciioice of responses under all combinations of stimu- lation and internal desires. An acquired habit, from the physiologi- oal point of view, is nothing but a new pathway of discharge formed in the brain, by which certain incoming currents ever after tend to X Bduoational Psychology, otarch. pp. 23-26. XX Principles of Teaching. Thomdike. pp. 68. 15, eaeape. In other words, /labits are paUiwayo tiwough nerre centers. The duty of the school includes the proper encourageiaent of certain emotional assets, interests, curiosities, ambitions (both vocation- al and aTocational), likes and dislikes, as well as of purely in- tellectual assets or knowledge. Fortunately, many of the instincts and eiootions are paired and the type of stimulus which the scuool offers determines which one of the paired instincts and emotions will respond and, by repeated responses; build up habits, riabits transfer into life controls or ideas, and these in turn into ideals which make for a better society. The case study will reveal some habits that need to be broken and others tnat need strengthening. Satisfa ction and dissatisfaction as springs of action. — Whether or not an action will be repeated voluntarily depends almost entirely on wnether the result of the action is "satisfying to trie organism," rience tiie need for the teacher to recognisse by personal approval right actions on txie part of the individual pupil. (Too often misconduct only is noted). The part tiiat ernotion plays in the formation of habits must not be overlooked, for it is easy for an eraotion^(to^:eV«itJ beoomo a satisfaction in itself. To illustrate: Occasionally a morbid girl actually enjoys tears and the blues. This is particularly true if the effect of her "miserableness" on other persons reaults in coddling wxilch flatters her sense of importance; or if hysteria gains coveted ends at the price of pre- venting a "scene." However, it is only by knowing and understand- ing the hidden springs of action of each student that one can draw correct inferences. Keed fo r an understanding of outside influences . — It is necessary not only to know in a general way the capacities of each pupil, but also to know sonetiiing of the forces that are acting upon his life. A study of the pupil's home and neighborhood en- vironment shows to a certain extent w/iat sort of stimuli tiie child 16. is exposed to during the nineteen nours of eaoii day timt iie is not in school. If these stixauli are such as to call out the lower in- stincts and eiootions, it say be Tery difficult for txie school to offer strong and continuous enough opposite stiiuuli that will pro- duce better habits. However, a knowledtje of hoioe conditions and the pupil's own attitude toward life will at least offer the school a basis for the selection of those stimuli that will encourage the growth of ideals fostered in the better class hoxoe, or counteract to soiae extent the influence of bad home environment. The chief prereoui sitca in the process of eduction. — Assuming that work assigned is commensurate with mental capacity, then interest in work, attention, and apperi^ratiTe basis gained from contact with life are the prerequisites in education. Associa- tion explains recall and attention, hence the need for the teacaer to express her subject matter in terms of the experiences of her pupils. At the same time she oust remember that, "The old, UiC near, tiie accustomed, is not that J^ which but that with wnieh w attend; it does not furnish the material of a problem, but of its solution.* Hence we see that the first condition of instructing pupils is to know them. This necessitates the making of a oas« study of each pupil. l^yamfX* — 7^ psychology upon which th*ea«« nethod in education is based, is founded largely upon the theory of indiTidual differences. These differences are in quantitative mke-up, in the construction of cell combinsjtions making up the nervous system, in grades of intelligence and in results of environment and ex- periences.

The average teacher will usually be able to note cases of ir- regularity of mental development, but siie will not be able to diag- nose them. She Siiould refer these cases to a trained psyoiiiatrist. Some of the larger cities have already established mental hygiene clinics as part of their public sonool health work. Tt ^mi natl on results . — These results of a psyohiatrial exami- nation should be carefully interpreted by the psychiatrist giving the examination. K>he can often suggest ways by w}iich the scjiooI can cooperate in treating oases of mental abbcration. The sciriool, in tum^oan furnish data that is helpful in explaining the meaning ;*i«jJ«^W»Jt?». 33* of tae examination results. V. Soiiool History. ^irtaiff feioal acceleration or retardatlojii. — It is etssuned that the pupil entered tiie first grade at approximately the age of six years although the normal age for entering is often taken from fire ye j.rs nine monUis to six years nine montiis. If the pupil iMkes normal progress (one full grade each year), then by the time he reaches, say the seTenth grade, he will be approximately twelve years old. If he reaches the seventh grade when he is only ten, tnen he is pedagogically accelerated two ye^rs; if, on the other hand, he is fourteen when he reaches the seventh grade, he is ap* proxiioately pedagogically retarded two years. 8tt|^.1ect3 expelled . i n. — Academic recoxtis will indie -te laore or less cleiirly both subjects excelled in and those of greatest difficulty and least interest. The records, however, snould be supplemented by tae pupil *s omi statement. Applicatiop or effort and behavior . — Statwients regi^rding these have to be given merely as observations and estimates, as well as do teachers* opinions of cniltdren^s abilities. This word of caution snould be noted. T^ach teacher should form her judgments as independently as possible of tnose recorded by previous teachers. It by no means indicates an error of one or the other teacher wnen the estimates do not coincide. Children are not fixed quantities. They often show lourked changes from term to tex^o. Incidentally these changes may show what the school is doing, or is not doing, for the pupil. Such relative tezms as •good," •*fair" and "poor* should be avoided; in their place use brief statements of fact or observation. For example, a much clearer idea of a pupil's application or effort is gained by such statements as. Pupil wastes no time in sciiool; Comes to class with ^ lessons well prepared; or. Starts trork but seldom finisiies it, — tiian one oould possibly get from a grade of "good" or "poor." In describing beharior, it is also bf?tter to give a brief statement of tne individual oiiild*8 outstanding acts and motives, as tiiey are observed from montli to montii. Teacner*s opinions of pu>il*3 ability ,* -- Here the teacher suould cocapare her Judgment of ability with that of class records. Frequently school marks and judgment of ability coincide, but in many instances they do not. ?or example, a teacher may know that an able cuild is doing only average work because of home responsi- bility or because of poor health or worry. In such an instance the aoadeaio record will show only indifferent school marks; the teacher *s estiraate of superior ability will show that she thinks the pupil not fairly represented by his academic record. In other eaeee a child of inferior ability may do aver^ige work up to a certain point because of ambition, diligence, and help at home. These estimates laay be expressed as follows: ability superior to, equal to, or infex>ior to academic accomplishment. VI. Social and Uoral Reactions. Favorable reactions. — These include both the attitude of the pupil and his behavior. Stateoents sijould be made only where tiiey can be backed up by concrete incidents. These siiould be given in every case, or else the point in question should bo ommitted. Such a record is far xaore satisfactory than subjective estimates in relative terxzis or a long list of personal characteristics, such as: honesty, sociability, consideration, initiative, leadership^ neatnes'j, cheerfulness, and courtesy. Delinquency . — > Under tnis heading naJce a record with the date of only real misdemeanors such as repeated use of vile and profane language, stealing, persistent lying, iiabitual truancy, violence in 35. school, or obscenity. If the pupil is under toe care of the Jure- nile Court, record that fact. Many teachers hesitate to record such facts because they feel that they are tiiereby condemning the pupil, or depriving him of a possible chance of making good later on. If these records were ac- cessible to others than thoae who are directly and vitally concern- ed in helping the delinquent pupil this might be true. However, school officials are learning to practice the same code of profes- sional ethics as do the physician and the lawyer. Furthermore, they would no more think of condemning the pupil because of past delinquencies than would the teacher who may hesitate to make the record. The dates of the record will show to what extent the school is helping the pupil to overcome his special weaknesses and tempta- tions. If he has not overcome these when he leaves to go to work, the school finding a position for him must remember that he needs to be helped and safeguarded. For exairiple, a school placement secretary recently secured a position in a bank for a boy who, un- known to her, had a record of dishonesty. He immediately misap- propriated some of the funds of ti^ie bank, was arrested and discharg- ed. As a result, the bank refused to cooperate further witii the school placement bureau. In filling out this record of delinquency care should, of course, be taken to record only well established faeta, not mere suspicions. In this way no injustice can be done the pupil. VII. Amusements. The rating, by the pupil nimself, of both lists of amusements -- those in which the pupil takes part with others and those in which he participates alone -- in the order of their importance to him, is often significant. 36. A comparison of the iengtli of the first list with that of the second may also give some idea of the pupil's social adaptability. VIII. Associates. Influence . -- Snap judgments should not "be made as to the in- fluence of a child's associates; in some cases they laay exert a atrong influence for good or evil, but in other cases will have little influence. Age . — Older associates sometimes exert a dominating influ- ence; for this reason the age of associates should be noted. IX, Working lii story. Attitude toward this work . — Tuis record should include a statement not only of the employed youth's present attitude toward the jobs which he has held, but also his attitude toward them as possible permanent occupations in the future. For example, a messenger boy's attitude toward his work may be expressed as follows Likes the work, but does not want to make it his permanent employ- ment. Present .job, nature of the work . — List here the major tasks and the outstanding requirements of knowledge necessary for their performance. In the case of the employed youth, attending part- time sciiool, tnis will offer the basis of training to make him more efficient for his job. Training offered on the .job . — In visiting the youth's place of employment, the coordinator should note carefully the kind euid amount of training offered on the job, and compare it with that which a job analysis snows is necessary for efficiency and promo- tion. This will show whether or not the school should supplement the training offered on the job. 37. Opportunity for advancement . — Since adyancement depends upon tiie indiridual worker as veil as upon tiie type of organization of a businesn, note can profitably be made of only outstanding cases where no opportunities are offered for advancement, or where un- usually good opportunities are offered. Vocational ajiibition . — A child's vocational ambition during the elementary and secondary grades may have no sliyiificance. It may change from year to year and represent nothing but a fleeting interest. In many instances, however, during the high school course a definite vocational ambition emerges which proves to be determin- ing. The record from year to ye .or will show whether any such fixed interest and ambition has appeared. X. y»mily History. Baaber of children in order of age . — A knowledge of what older brothers and sisters are doing, how much education they re- ceived before leaving school, and how other children of the family, still in school, are progressing, throws light on the economic and educ-itional background of the child. It helps the school to judge how much education on a full-time basis he will probably be able to obtain and how nach his family may consider necessary for him. Father's occupation . — This should be recorded as explicitly as possible, i. e., list exact title of payroll Job. It gives some idea of the family Income, and may suggest the vocational Interest of the boy. toother's occupation^ -- TiriS ^item here is the amount of time that the mother is absent from home. Delinquency and truancy can often be traced to the mother's absence from home. It may also mean that the responsibility of the housework is left to the child- ren, and may explain the cause of their absence or tardiness. 38« XI. Uorae Conditions. Hn^ber of rooms and approxlnate size . — By coiiiparing tills number with tlie size of the family (see Family History) the con- gestion of occupancy can be determined. Less than four rooms for each five occupants is usually considered below the minimum health standard. Parents* interest in and cooperation with the scuool and neigh- borhood . — Definition of terms: Interested: Send children to school regularly; meet requests of school promptly (such as furnishing legitimate ex- cuses for pupils tardiness and absence); carry out suggestions made by the school to help the child; see to it that the pupil does the home worlc assigned; hold membership in parent-teacher association or in civic organization of the neignborhood. Indifferent: Show no interest in, or spirit of cooperation with, either the school or other neighborhood organiza- tions. Hostile: Opposes the school in Its policies and upholds the pupil in doing the same. XII. Neighborhood Conditions. Social status of residents . — Complete and accurate data regarding many of the points listed in the outline under this topic will not be obtainable in some cases, liowever, the elementary school in the neighborhood usually has opportunity to estimate the social status of residents rather accurately. 89. XIII. History Subsequent to Leaving School. Success in higher schools . -- This is best measured by a report of the actual scholarship grades made by the pupil during his first term in the higher institution. Most senior high schools and col- leges are very willing to send these reports, Suooens in industry . -- Tills is best answered by concrete statements such as the following: Has been steadily employed by the same firm; discharged because of incompetency; salary has been rais- ed, etc. 40. oumR iv.
