Professor of Psychology, Stanford
University.

Copyright. 1929, Science Service)
The prospect for a nationwide
search for scientific genius grips the
imagination. Mr.. Edison's provision
for this search is one of the most
creative, challenging, and daring Of
all his undertakings.
True, neither science nor common
sense has solved the riddle of genius,
but psychology has made begin
ming. There is nothing about genius
that is not amendable to scientific
investigation. Some time the bud
ding geniuses in every intellectual
and artistic field will be discovered
early, tended and looked after as
the most priced asset of the nation.
Even now the search need not be
a blind one. 1t is possible to identify
with considerable certainty the
youth endowed with scientific tai
ent.
The search should be in charge
of a small committee composed of
psychologists and physical SCENT
lists, with a similar cooperating
committee in each state. Every
high school senior class in the coun-
try should be sifted. In this the
universal and enthusiastic co-opera-
ton of the schools could be ex-
pected.
No single technique exists which
would be adequate by itself. The
principle Of progressive Sitting
should be adopted. First, one or
more batteries of intelligence tests
should be used. Those rating high
in intelligence should be given the
David Zyve or a similar test of SCI
entifiC aptitude.
Those surviving this test should
be given the E. K Strong or similar
test for measurement of scientific
interests. Tests of character and
personality traits should follow.
Survivors to this point should be
rated by competent judges for such
traits as industry, persistence in the
face of difficulty, unselfshness, CO.
operativeness, objective Kindness,
and health.
The ratings would be based In
part upon observation, to supple
ment the test results. Final selec-
ton would be improved by giving
some weight to a heredity rating
based upon the qualities shown by
blood relatives, including parents,
grandparents, uncles, aunts and
cousins.
The greatest mistake, in short,
would be to rely too heavily on a
