"Ever since Binet gave us the idea of a "mental yardstick," it has been customary to evaluate individual achievement in terms of statistical criteria. Parallel with this trend there has been a tendency to lose sight of the individual. The norms of standard tests are based upon majority findings, and are doubtless applicable to the majority of children. It does not follow, however, that they are applicable to the exceptional child. Most of the children referred to the clinic are exceptional in some way, and we have no standard instrument that offers the exceptional child a fair opportunity to show what he can do. We examine him by a scale that may be grossly unfair to him, and report his achievement as compared with that of normal children. This is intended as an auxiliary textbook for advanced students in clinical psychology, written to encourage in them a critical and experimental attitude in their use of mental tests. It has been my wish to avoid any considerable overlap with the writings of others, and to present a point of view not generally recognized"--Preface.

"In December, 1953 the Committee on Disaster Studies, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the Mississippi State Department of Public Welfare collaborated in a study of the effects of disaster upon children and families. The event was the Vicksburg tornado The results were published by the National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council in The Child and His Family in Disaster; A Study of the 1953 Vicksburg Tornado, by Stewart E. Perry, Earle Silber, and Donald A. Bloch. In February, 1955 other tornadoes struck Mississippi. This time two rural schoolhouses were the main targets, and, again, most of the victims were children. While a systematic replication of the Vicksburg study was not feasible, the Committee on Disaster Studies (now Disaster Research Group) felt it desirable to attempt to refine and elaborate the findings of the previous study. The purpose of Operation Schoolhouse was a case study, of a limited number of families, which would illuminate the processes by which a family, in the context of its community and sub-culture, may deal with the traumatic experiences of disaster. This purpose has been achieved, by a skillful research team composed of Dr. Ralph Patrick, choirmon, Dr. Hylan Lewis, and Mrs. Rebecca Moore, and by the authors, Helen and Stewart Perry, who have patiently sifted and brooded over the field data and teased from it a provocative and useful report. Publication of this report is gratifying not only because of the Information and ideas it contributes to the study of an important problem but also because it signifies a remarkable amount of cooperation on the part of many people"--Foreword.

This book attempts to present in systematic form the latest findings in child psychology. The literature abounds in studies of the child made by persons of varied interests and reported with all degrees of accuracy. Many of the studies are colored with prejudices or with sentimental bias, while others are remarkable for their objectivity. This book is an attempt to bring some order into the chaos which this vast literature offers to the reader. Where the field is extensive it is necessary to draw certain lines of demarcation. We have limited ourselves to the field of child psychology and have omitted physical growth, nutrition, heredity, physical and mental diseases, and similar subjects, except in so far as they are related directly and closely to the psychological growth of the child. Because the book is based on the most recent scientific data it should be of value as a text in child psychology in colleges and normal schools. Because it sets forth the principles of child development it should be of value as a reference work for all teachers. Since the applications of the scientific facts are stated in simple terms it should be valuable as a source book of information for parents and child study groups. The book studies the normal child. Various aspects of normal development are considered in turn with a final section on personality synthesis and integration. A study of the integrated and functioning child is essential to a complete understanding of his psychology. We have attempted to give a complete analysis of infant behavior, motor development, emotional development, motivation, language, thinking, work, play, and the like; but these need to be seen as a functional working unit in the complete personality.
