Author Description

Excerpt from Types of Mental Defectives To this end, types of various grades are useful as sign-posts pointing the way to successful diagnosis of defect - mental, moral and physical. In defining types many points, such as have been indicated by tests, as well as by the stigmata of degeneration noted in the individual, are to be considered. Appended herewith will be found the educational classification, which, as the outgrowth of a close study of cases and-careful adaptation to needs - indorsed by both physicians and teachers - has proven in a long experience the best one as simplifying the tasks of all engaged in the work.
