content: This is Schedule F of a set of intelligence tests designed by Luella Cole Pressey, then of the University of Indiana. The exams were designed for children in grades one through three. The four tests were dot patterns, classification, a picture form board, and picture absurdities. They were designed to appeal to students and not to require reading skills. They were published by the department of psychology of the University of Indiana and used in an early state mental survey of school children.
