Zusammenfassung:" . . . 194 children from high and 200 from low socio-economic homes in three cities were administered the Davis-Eells and the Kuhlmann-Finch tests. The data obtained did not support the claims for the Davis-Eells that its items are culturally more fair than items used in other group intelligence tests. The writers have questioned the appropriateness of the assumptions made by Eells, Davis, Haggard, Havighurst, et. al., that mean differences in innate ability between children of high and low socio-economic status are insignificant."
