Have tens y caged disadvan- dlfilant study by Dt, thal, professor of at Harvard, been reported in the public press. It will appear in a book next spring, Pygmalion in the Classroom, published by Holt; Rinehart and Winston. Four years ago, Professor Rosenthal, in a study on leatn- ing by rats, reported after tests that rats learned far better when the experimenters were told falsely that the rats had been spécially bred for learning ability--intelligence. The same kind of rats performed more poorly after the experimenters had been told the rats were dull. Hardly any magic about that. We caf assume that the rats performed better if their han- dlers supposed these rats were brighter, because the greater expectation was communicated éubtly through more gentle and ékillful handling of them. SIMILAR RESULTS Later Professor Rosenthal began similar studies of school children and reported what he bélieves to be similar results. Accordingly, a random sampling Was made of the first and sec- ond grade children in the South San Francisco ele mentary school. Falsely the teachers 'were told one group would make dfamatic gains in school work. They actually made such gains whilé the other children did not. Just the teacher and not the pupils or their parents were told of the "predictions." Professor Rosenthal 'believes that his study provides strong evidence that many children, especially minority-group chil- dren, turn out to be dull because their teachers expect them to be dull. In the spring of 1964, Profes- teachérs were given the names) of 20 per cent of the pupil bod FOR THE BIRTHDAY fd social functions, ; find a man crazy enough to ; marry you," when her friends If tomorrow is your birthday, |discovered she wanted a home you should find the year ahead|furnished mainly with cats. marked by excellent progress on| Her friends were wrong. practically all counts.

Believing they would 46 bettér, the teachers naturally would find more skill ful ways to realize such expecta- tion. Even the person giving the first and second IQ tests proba- bly was influenced unawares by) his expectations. Professor Rosenthal seems to have tried hard to contro] all factors. But can we be sure he did control them? A similar problem abounds in numerous published studies which con- clude that one method of teach- ing is superior to one or more other méthods. To what degree aré the reported measures reli- able? Can we always know éx- actly what was measured?
