Summary "Measure Your Mind: The Mentimeter and How to Use It" by M. R. Trabue and Frank Parker Stockbridge is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book explores the measurement of intelligence through scientific methods, focusing on the Mentimeter tests designed for both educational and industrial applications. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of mental capacities and how they can be assessed effectively, making the process accessible for educators, employers, and individuals seeking self-improvement. The opening of the book introduces the concept of measuring human capacities as a necessary step akin to measuring machines for optimal performance. Trabue emphasizes the historical reliance on guesswork in hiring and job assignments, contrasting it with the precise scientific methods available for assessing mental abilities. He discusses the importance of establishing universal standards and outlines how psychological tests can systematically classify individuals based on their intelligence levels. By demonstrating the existing gaps in current selection practices, the authors set the stage for presenting the Mentimeter tests as essential tools for achieving better alignment between individuals and suitable roles in various fields.
