Abstract
PROF. J. McKEEN CATTELL, the retiring president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, gave in his address at Kansas City on “Some Psychological Experiments,”a portion of which was published in NATURE of January 16, an illuminating account of the develop ment of the experimental study of individual differ ences. Starting with a description of the measure ment of a simple sense reaction time, he proceeded to show, step by step, how the same type of objective measurement can be used in such a complicated action as the selection of a career.
