    Three aptitude factor scores for each of 2,985 college-bound, urban high school seniors were used to compare patterns and levels of performance by sex and ethnic group membership. The results indicated that within ethnic groups, men and women exhibit patterns of scores characteristic of their sex. Significant differences in levels of performance between ethnic groups were found on the three factors, and differences on two factors were found for m…

Results of a sequential, step-wise multiple regression analysis indicated…

    An experiment was conducted on the usefulness of a statistical summary in judging enemy intentions, in the context of a nuclear attack. The statistical summary was based on applications of correlation, factor groupings, and variance ratios. Thirty ROTC students served as Ss, playing the role of intelligence analysts in a simulated command post. Analyses of variance of scores based on analysts' judgments support two major inferences: use of the su…
