In order to develop tests for this purpose, various stud ies were made and experiments conducted. At one time a series of four tests were given group-wise to a group of fort ty-one comptometrists. eter tests were given to At another time, comptom- given to separate groups comprising Ninety-three operators. As soon as tentative tests and standards were established, they were given in the em- ployment office where, at the time of this writing, over one hundred and twenty applicants have been tested and the results followed up. In addition, tests were given to over f’ghty pupils who entered evening classes conducted to instruct girls in comptometry, and comparisons made between the performances of the pupils in the tests and ’-heir subsequent progress on the computing machine. a result of these experiments the tests given in the appendix under the head of Tests for Computing-Ma rine Operators were finally established. It must be stated that these tests were developed in connection with the use of comptometers (really a trade name) and the burroughs adding machine, probably the two most widely Use d machines.
