520 |a "The study is based upon data taken from the case records of the demonstration child guidance clinics in Los Angeles and Philadelphia, These clinics were conducted by the National Committee for Mental Hygiene as part of the Commonwealth Fund program for the prevention of delinquency, and were followed by the establishment of locally supported community clinics in those cities. This investigation was undertaken during the demonstration period, while the authors were psychologists on the staffs of the clinics. In accordance with the purpose of the Commonwealth Fund program these clinics were primarily concerned with the practical aspects of diagnosis and treatment for children who presented problems of personality and behavior. The case records accumulated in the discharge of these major responsibilities, however, provide a valuable source of information regarding various questions pertaining to the better understanding of such problems. This is true of all well-organized child guidance clinics, where the close coordination of the work of psychologists, psychiatrists, and psychiatric social workers insures unusual richness of the data collected in the case records. The authors were glad to take advantage of the opportunity thus afforded for research based upon this material. It may be only honest to confess that the results from this statistical study were far different from what had been anticipated. We had expected that the personality-behavior deviations of pupils would prove to have affected their scholarship to such a degree that statistical methods would show a decided general tendency in the direction of impaired educational achievement. It is because the results were so out of harmony with this theory that we have in Section VI subjected our methodology to detailed analysis and criticism. Various difficulties which were encountered in the present study have been described rather fully in the hope that other investigators may be saved some of the experimentation in methods which we were forced to make. For the methods of investigation, the conclusions reached, and the views expressed, the authors, of course, assume responsibility"--Introduction.
