| Abstract: | AbstractThe effects of mobility upon performance on standardized group tests of mental ability of disadvantaged children in 18 elementary schools in New York City were assessed.Among nontransient pupils there was no significant difference between the mean Otis Alpha test score at the third grade and the mean Otis Beta score which was taken three years later at the sixth grade. However, the Otis Alpha scores of these nontransients were significantly higher than that of their third-grade transient classmates. Also, the Otis Beta scores of these same non transients were significantly better than that of their sixth-grade classmates.This study emphasized differences in the test performance of transient and nontransient pupils in a school population of disadvantaged children and pointed up the need for separate longitudinal analyses of these two groups. |
