APPENDIX 417 17. Handwriting Description: The subject is given a short paragraph of easy English, or a short column of figures to copy. The Thorn dike and other scales have been used to correct this test but none of them have been found satisfactory. The scales themselves may be good but no two people applying them can get the same result. It is sufficient in most cases to rate handwriting as large, small, medium; very legible, fairly legible, illegible. 19. Alphabetical Filing Test Description: See sample given below. Instructions: Show subject a slip containing the following: chain a e g i w spend ab ef ho sa st mixture a f k r X eyes b d m P y candy ar ca CO 1 s “ Put a check to show between what letters you would file these words. For instance, chain begins with ‘c’ and would come between ‘a’ and ‘e’ so you place a check there; spend begins with ‘sp’ so it comes before ‘st’ but after ‘sa.’ Try it with the rest of these words.” Applicant finishes placing the words on the sample slip. “Now do the same thing with this entire sheet (examiner shows test 19 which consists of 50 words arranged according to the above principle). All right? Start.” Allow 150 seconds only. Record: Time, number of words placed, number of errors. E. g., 19; 150 secs., 48 - 3. Rating: Formula I. Point of reference, 50 words in 150 seconds; RU, 50; N, number of words covered; E, errors, which count double. Applying to above sample record, 48— 6 5° = .84
