The Manual provides: a description of the test, information on the development of the test, validity and reliability, directions for administering, directions for scoring, directions for recording scores, interpretation of test results, other uses of test results, chance success and practice effect, and finally cautions in interpretation of the results. The booklet is eight pages. It also includes four different figures and eleven different tables. The booklet was published by the World Book Company and copyrighted in 1939 and 1949.
