“…Along with this specific cultural transmission exists another one stemming from the peer group. In a series of studies relating to the use of sociometry and teachers' ratings (Barclay 1966a(Barclay , 1966b(Barclay , 1966c(Barclay , 1966dBarclay & Barclay, 1965), the writer and L K Barclay have provided some evidence that sociometric phenomena may be interpreted as one of a set of indexes tapping the environmental press. Specifically, sociometry has been found useful in identifying impulsive actingout children, in longitudinally predicting school dropouts, and m identifying syndromes of interests which accompany high and low social desirability.…”

ATTEMPTED TO DETERMINE WHETHER SPECIFIC TREATMENT PROCEDURES USED BY SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY INTERNS COULD EFFECT CHANGES IN CRITERIA OF SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE AND DIMENSIONS OF ATTITUDES RELATING TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL "PRESS," PEERS, AND AUTHORITY FIGURES. DIFFERENTIAL TREATMENTS INCLUDED PLANNED INTERVENTIONS IN 1 CLASS, SELECTIVE REINFORCEMENT PROCEDURES IN A 2ND, AND THE CHANGE OF TEACHER IN A 3RD. DATA ANALYSIS USING BOTH ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE AND FISHER'S EXACT PROBABILITY TEST INDICATED THAT PLANNED INTERVENTION RESULTED IN A NUMBER OF SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN PRE- AND POSTTEST SCORES FOR THAT GROUP. THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY SUGGEST THAT STRATEGIES OF PLANNED INTERVENTION IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CLASSROOMS CAN RESULT IN MORE FAVORABLE ATTITUDINAL STANCES ON THE PART OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN.

“…When compared with 44 female Negro adolescents of limited intelligence, the low-adjuscment group had higher E and lower I and S scores than the Negro group, while the high-adjustment group had lower S and higher E scores chan the Negro group (McCormick, et al, 1966). Barclay and Barclay ( 1965) compared groups of third grade students who differed in terms of their social desirability. They used criteria of sociometric and teacher ratings.…”

St~mmasy.-This review of research with the IES Test considers the stimulus properties, response tendencies, standardization, reliability and validity. Suggestions are made for revision of the manual and the subtesrs and for further research.The IES Test (Dombrose & Slobin, 1957) yields projective material which is objectively scored to provide personality descriptions within a theoretical framework. I t merits analysis as an "experiment" representing the possibility of increased meaningful and accurate personality descriptions and predictions.The original IES Test (Dombrose 8: Slobin, 1951) was composed of 1 0 subrests designed to measure the relative strengths of impulse, ego, and superego. Four of these s~~b t e s t s were selected as the most adequate and comprise the published version (Dombrose & Slobin, 1957, 1958. Using the framework of psychoanalytic theory, a group of situations are presented to the testee. These are designed to stimulate responses representing expression of the impulses, ego, and superego. Responses are quantifiable and provide a measure of the relative strengths of the psychic appararus. The four s~~b t e s t s of the IES are Picture Titles ( P T ) , Picture Story Completion (PSC) , Photo-Analysis ( P h A ) , and Arrow-Dot ( A D ) . FOUR SUBTESTS OF THE IES TEST Picture Title SnbtestPT has 12 drawings whose depicted activities and objects are classifiable into impulse, ego, and superego categories (I, E, S, D , IS, and S S ) . Ss respond by composing a title for each picture. Detailed criteria for scoring are presented in the test manual. Two independent scorers had 91% agreement for 180 titles from Ss (Dombrose & Slobin, 1958).In regard to the six scoring categories for PT, I is the impulse score, and S has five possible types of response which are scored I. These response types are variations or blending of impulse recognition and impulse expression. A similar approach is used with S, the superego score. Seven possible types of response can be scored S. There is also an IS score for titles referring to I and S areas as distinct or without integration. The S score is added to the D score to give a ZS score. The D score refers to titles which put psychological distance between S and the significant picture content. The ego score, E, refers to a title which integrates the I, E, and S aspects of the picture. P T is designed to measure the degree and type of projection through its different scoring categories. But the scoring does not reflect the variety of I and

This study summarizes the analysis of the interest patterns of 1,777 elementary and junior high school students as related to a sociometric device and teachers' ratings. The subjects were asked their preferences in terms of class interests, television viewing habits, music listening preferences, study preferences, study habits, vocational plans, and choices of reading as distributed over comic books, magazines, and literary books. In addition, demographic and employment data were obtained. A number of dropouts were identified four years later and their responses on these measures were compared with students who remained in school. The results of the study indicate that sociometric status and teachers' ratings as measures of social desirability do differentiate between certain interest patterns and these patterns are associated with a broad extroversion-introversion continuum. Dropouts were found to differ on certain of these measures.
