Synopsis
Excerpt from Psychological Tests Applied to Factory Workers
Many of the subjects regretted their lack of education yet said that they had been able to do their factory work fairly well and they seemed to like it in spite of its rather limited possibilities, that is they probably preferred work to school. They had all left school without having acquired any definite industrial or business training and it was by mere chance that they had drifted into this type of work. An introduction by relatives or friends already in the factory was the decisive factor. There had been no consideration of the suitability of the person for the job.
The subjects ranged in age from fourteen to fifty, but the majority were between sixteen and twenty-one years of age, as is indicated in this table.
