ABSTRACT

In the previous chapter we have discussed some of the implications of the relation of intelligence to will. We now come to the consideration of a problem that is still more in need of elucidation. We perhaps cannot better bring the problem before the reader than by quoting the oft heard remark, “It is not enough to know a child’s intelligence, his mental level, but we ought also to know his emotional life. Tests of intelligence are not enough, we must also have tests of the emotions.” This view has far more to justify it than the views about the will already discussed.
