Frames of Mind
Contrary Imaginations was an original and suggestive study of two types of intelligent schoolboy – the converger with his preference for science and the diverger with his leaning towards the arts. In Frames of Mind, originally published in 1968, Liam Hudson extends and enriches this classification and begins to detect the existence of two subcultures. Within these it is not merely a question of leanings towards science or the arts as a vocation: …
Contrary Imaginations
First published in 1966, this title describes two types of clever schoolboy, the ‘converger’ and the ‘diverger’. The intellectual and personal differences between these two types are examined in detail.

The Relation of Psychological Test Scores to Academic Bias
S ummary . On entering the Sixth Form, English schoolboys choose between Arts and Science subjects. Effectively, this choice commits them to one career field or the other. The present research is aimed to discover whether psychological tests reflect the academic bias of such boys towards Arts or Science subjects; and whether they give any indication of boys' aptitude for specialised work at university and in research. A battery of conventional ps…

The most important criterion for the award of a grant for post-graduate research in science appears at present to be the class obtained by the candidate in his final B. A. or B. Sc. degree. As a preliminary check on the validity of this criterion, the degree classes gained by four groups of eminent British scientists have been ascertained. These groups comprise Fellows of the Royal Society and Doctors of Science who have graduated from either Oxf…
