Abstract
In three preceding articles results of tests given at the beginning of the junior year to students qualifying for the general elementary credential have been described and their relationship to subsequent success in student teaching computed.1 Briefly, students entering training were found to be already highly selected in intelligence and achievement, and somewhat se lected in teacher interest and ability. Tests of general intelligence, achieve ment, special abilities and interest were found to be of no predictive value at this level for success in teaching; Tests of personality emphasizing mental health and teaching prognosis tests were found to be significant indicators of teaching success under the supervision of the University. The question then arises whether such measures will have equal predictive value when compared with some criterion of success in the field. It is to present data on that aspect of the problem that the present article is written.
