Devise Tests For Voice Defects New York (U.R) Tulane Uni versity psychologists have de vised a picture vocabulary to test the measure of intelligence of children who are vocally or muscular ly handicapped. The test is simple and re quires only 10 or 15 minutes. It is believed to be the only test that will determine reliably the learning capacity of all child ren, except the deaf and blind. Dr. Robert Ammons, assistant professor of psychology at Tu lane, and his wife, a candidate for a doctor' degree in clinical psyschology, devised the test. It will determine the capacity of ; a two-year-old child or a men- , tally superior adult. j Matches Words ' The test is composed of 16 plates, each with four line drawings, picturing a wide va- j riety of subject matter. The child or adult being tested need only to indicate in some way j which of the drawings best ll- i lustrates a given word. A child with a speech impedi ment, for example, may point to the right picture-answer. If a child has trouble pointing, he may nod, wink his eyes, grunt or indicate in some other way. Words on a card are read un til three are passed consecutive ly or failed, and until all 16 plates have been covered. Ques tions are scaled accordingly.
