ferences are large enough to be significant. The aver- 

 age of the three correlations obtained when Thurstone's 

 Test was employed shows a difference of 35 points in 

 favor of the women. In regard to the average of the 

 nine r 's of Army Alpha, there is a difference of 30 on the 

 side of the women. When all the correlation values are 

 averaged the women obtain an advantage of .259. 



In the column of the woman's judgments, all of the 

 values are of some significance; 4 are between .266 and 

 .372 ; 3 between .401 and .467 ; 3 between .545 and .597 ; 

 4 are between 60 and 70. Ten of the 14 values are suffi- 

 ciently high to be quite significant. The average of the

 for the men's judgments of women are of any signifi- 

 cance. The highest value is only .281 while the lowest 

 is .014. The average of all 14 values is .162. In no in- 

 stance is the r three times the size of the P. E. 



With the foregoing data as the basis, the following 

 conclusions are justified :
