Expedition stress and personality change
There have been few attempts to investigate the widespread assumption that short‐term challenges can have beneficial effects on personality. An expedition to India organized by the British Schools Exploring Society provided such an opportunity. The Gordon Personal Profile Inventory showed that the expedition was associated with increased ascendancy, emotional stability, sociability and responsibility, and decreased cautiousness. Women tended to b…

Musical documents
The development of the filmmaker's approach to producing films about traditional music is presented biographically and chronologically. Experiences that have shaped his approach, along with some formulations and conceptual issues that have emerged during the making of the films are discussed. The article explores the relationships between production values of film and the considerations of anthropology, ethnomusicology, and folklore.’

A Confirmation of the Inertial‐ψ Effect in Sequential Choice and Decision
The experiment was designed to test the hypothesis, derived from earlier investigations, that people tend to overestimate compound probabilities, in the rough sense that they think they have a better chance of success than is actually the case. Fifty boys, aged 14+, were presented with various m × n arrays, where m represents the number of stages and n represents the number of alternatives at each stage. There was one correct but unknown alternat…
Homo Psychologicus
The Doctrine of Psychological Chances
A study was made of choice in a situation, the outcome of which depended entirely on chance. The subjects were offered the possibility of winning a prize either by drawing a ticket with the value of p = 0·1 or by drawing a ticket from an urn several times, without replacement, where each ticket had the value of p = 0·01. 150 subjects, of mean age 17 yr., took part in the experiment. They were subdivided into groups so as to control the initial va…

A Quantitative Study of Meaning
In the present investigation we have extended the quantitative study of meaning by introducing several new features. We have used 'operational' methods of determining the subject's interpretations of words and phrases. Thus, where previously we relied on his written answers to questions, we now measure his interpretations on the basis of what he actually does when given certain instructions. This procedure enables us to control the qualitative co…

Measures of Subjective Probability
The question, which arose in an earlier investigation, of the transposability of estimates made on different ranges (‘out of five’, ‘out of ten’, etc.) is subjected to experiment. The degree of transposability is found to be a function of age
Skill and Chance
Experiments with three groups of subjects, ranging in age from 13 to 20 years, were carried out to determine how estimates of success in performance are influenced by ( a ) varying the subjective assessment of the degree of skill required to succeed in a task, and ( b ) varying the degree of subjective chance. The findings were as follows, (i) The result of introducing an element of subjective chance into a task requiring some skill is to make th…

Skill and Judgment of Footballers in Attempting to Score Goals a Study of Psychological Probability
The paper describes an experimental study of certain aspects of football in the context of psychological probability. Two First Division teams, a University team and a Grammar School team acted as subjects. The methods employed include extensions of previous techniques and new applications. A further analysis of certain experimental situations was made by an examination of films of actual matches. Supplementary evidence was obtained from the stat…
