Psychology Of Practice.

The question of short versus long
periods of practice in training the hu-
man muscles for any particular kind
of work is obviously one having far
reaching application. Some interest
ing experiments on this subject have
been carried out by DIR. X. S. Lashley
of Johns Hopkins university. Acquisi-
ton of skill in archery was selected
as the subject of observation. Twenty
unframed persons were divided into
three groups. One group shot five
arrows with the English longbow per
day; another, twenty shots per day !;
and the third. forty shots. The re.
suits showed conclusively that the
group shooting only five times a day
improved in accuracy with less ex-
penditure of time in practice than was
required by either Of the other groups
for the same amount OF Improvement.
A report on the experiments says:
THE relatively greater efficiency OF
short periods of practice continuing
for many days Is in accordance with
the results of the study of animals
and of speech habits in man. and in
dicates that in training to muscular
feats. in both animals and man, the
length of practice periods required is
usually too great for maximum ef.
ficiency."-Scientific American.
