The psychologist's most creative years
The age decrement in outstanding scientific creativity
Psychology for Elementary Education Majors
National Differences in Creativity
This study presents chronologically the national differences in eleven kinds of contribution to science and art. Although within recent years Germany has been outstanding in cultural contributions, this has been insufficient to prevent the downfall of the German nation. Other national groups have likewise risen and fallen repeatedly in the history of the world. This is a problem sufficiently large and important to warrant the establishment of a s…
The Exponential Increase of Man's Cultural Output
The Age of Eminent Leaders: Then and Now
This study reveals that certain types of present-day leaders-legislative, judicial, diplomatic, military, naval, religious, and educational-are significantly older than were their predecessors who held the same nominal positions. The recent leaders also exhibit less age variability today than formerly, both in the United States and in certain other countries. Thus, for each of the following groups of non-American leaders, the more recently born 5…

Nervous instability and genius: Some Conflicting Opinions
Occupational Intelligence in the Army: A Postscript
The army data revealed that the professional groups supplied more than their quota of superior individuals, as measured by the army intelligence tests, and that the middle 50 per cents of individuals from the professions were considerably superior to the middle 50 per cents of individuals engaged in trade, on the farm, etc. These findings led to the erroneous belief that the professions supply a majority of our abler citizens. The present study m…
Occupational Intelligence in the Army
The differences between the mean intelligence test scores of the members of the various occupations have been emphasized so frequenthly that an erroneous belief has gradually developed, namely, that the majority of our bright citizens come from the professional and the large-scale business groups. Inspection of a neglected aspect of the army intelligence test data leads to the conclusion that the majority of A and B caliber men of the United Stat…
The Dogma and Biology of Human Inheritance
The Twenty-seventh Yearbook of the National Society for the Study of Education attempts to summarize the crucial evidence regarding the relative potency of heredity and environment, respectively, in determining mental capacity and scholastic ability. Original studies are presented also. Many of the conclusions in the Year book are based upon two hypotheses of very questionable validity, namely, (I) that mental tests measure general intelligence, …
Nervous instability and genius: Poetry and Fiction
Some compensatory mechanisms of the negro
The writers found that negro children tend to engage considerably more frequently than white children in church activities, playing school, writing poetry, social activities and boxing. It is probable that certain of the above play activities are compensatory in nature and that the racial differences in the extent to which they are participated in reflect differences in the need and possibility for obtaining substitute gratification. The feeling …
Sex differences in credulity
This paper shows graphically that there is a significant sex difference in regard to credulity as expressed in the attitudes of the sexes towards fortune-telling activities. It suggests that this sex difference may be due in part to woman's relatively great emotionality or to her restrictions. These forces may cause her more frequently than man to fall back upon feeling for guidance. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
An Interpretation of the Heredity Background of Two Groups of Mental Deviates
This paper presents the common pitfalls and limitations of attempts to determine the relative importance of heredity and environment in effecting individual differences in general mental ability. Data are given for two groups of children; one group is made up of children commonly alleged to be feebleminded (I. Q. 70 and below); the other is composed of children who are often termed geniuses (I. Q. 140 and above). Facts regarding the racial origin…
