Ward and Hook Revisited
The Ward and Hook (1963) hierarchical grouping program is a frequently used method to cluster persons into groups. Because of a deficiency in the procedure, the groupings are somewhat less than optimal. In order to meet this deficiency, a two-part procedure was developed to be used in conjunction with the Ward and Hook program for a more optimal grouping of subjects. The first part of the procedure checks the assignments of the subjects to the gr…
The Utility of Homogeneous Subgroups and Individual Information in Prediction
A number of behavioral research studies have employed subgroups of subjects for prediction. In using subgroups for predictive purposes, a key assumption is often overlooked, i.e., at least one of the grouping or predictor dimensions affects the relationships between the other grouping dimensions and the criteria. The purposes of the present study were (a) to emphasize this commonly overlooked assumption and (b) to examine empirically the utility …
Patterns of College Grades across Curricular Areas
Transcript records of over 1,900 college students were transformed into a profile of grades across 12 curricular areas. The record for each subject also included high school grade point average (GPA) and the Scholastic Aptitude Test scores. Intercorrelations among the 12 college GPA variables were comparable to previous research which analyzed GPA over successive semesters. Factor analysis resulted in two GPA factors, General Academic Achievement…
Human Differences and Inequalities
The entire examination of the effects of family and schooling in America by Jencks et al. is a comparison of relative differences between individuals within the existing society. Thus, the findings can be viewed in terms of the existing theory concerning human differences. If is difficult to know where to start. The book is really two books. The first consists of the results of the reanalysis of data gathered by others, such as the Equality of Ed…

Moderator Subgroups and Bayesian m -Group Regression
In our initial paper (Lissitz & Schoenfeldt, 1974), we compared the effectiveness of five moderator subgroup models, including two least square procedures, two probability weighting (semi-Bayesian) methods, and the Bayesian m-group regression method (Novick, Jackson, Thayer, & Cole, 1972), in predicting college grade point average. It was found that the semiBayesian, the Bayesian, and within group least squares procedures offered no improvement o…

Delayed and Normal Progress College Students
More than one-tenth of today's college freshmen have delayed matriculation for at least one year after high school graduation. More specifically, if all first-time, full-time entering freshmen age 20 and over, and one-half of those age 19, are assumed to have delayed entrance to college, over 13/( of college freshmen are delayed entrants (Creager, Astin, Boruch, and Bayer, 1968). About one-half of recent freshmen received a bachelor's degree with…
Education After High School
In this study of a probability sample of American high school students, the relative influence of ability, interest, temperament, and family background variables are considered with respect to six possible educational decisions made within one year after high school graduation. Cross tabulation and discriminant analyses are used. During the four-year period of the follow-up surveys, the percentage of students reporting some further education incr…
