Holzinger and Swineford (1939) data is widely cited, but generally only the Grant-White School data is used. The present dataset contains the complete data of Holzinger and Swineford (1939).
A total number of 301 pupils from Paster School and Grant-White School participated in Holzinger and Swineford's (1939) study. This study consists of 26 tests, which are used to measure the subjects' spatial, verbal, mental speed, memory, and mathematical ability.
The spatial tests consist of visual
, cubes
, paper
, flags
, paperrev
,
and flagssub
. The test 25, paper form board test (paperrev
), can be used as a subsitute for
test 3, paper form board test (paper
). The test 26, flags test (flagssub
), is a possible
