Abstract
Guided by the hypothesis that underachieving children would have significantly lower barrier scores than normally achieving children, 76 seventh grade underachievers in a residential school were compared with 85 average boys. The hypothesis was borne out: underachievers did have lower barrier scores. Contrary to prediction, however, the barrier scores of the underachieving group did not improve significantly over a 3-mo. period of intense therapeutically oriented treatment in a special residential school.
