This and other similar tests were based upon a study of typical correspondence. Instructions: “On the other side of this sheet you will find a list of words. Some of the words are spelled correctly and some incorrectly. Place a check after every word that is spelled incorrectly. Do this quickly and carefully. All right? Start.” Allow subject to finish. Examiner than corrects the test and at once continues: “Now write down these words as I dictate them to you.” Examiner then dictates to subject those words which have been wrongly checked or overlooked. Corrections: Record time taken, number of mistakes, and num ber of mistakes left after dictation. E. g., 16; 127 — 8 — 3. Rating: Formula II. Point of reference, perfect completion of 84 words in 126 seconds. RU, 84; Ru, 1.5, i. e., 126 + 84; E, errors count one if made once, and two points if repeated. Then, applying the formula to the above sample: 1.5 X (84 - 8 - 6) _ g 127 ’ 3 ' Suggestions: This method takes much less time than the straight dictation method and is just as fair.
