	Classics in the History of Psychology -- Hollingworth (1922)
		Pressey,[8] in testing a random sampling of 2,544 school children in Indiana found boys to be more variable, and to preponderate among the very stupid.
		In another sample of 1,408 school children, the same investigators found a similar result, while in a sample of 787 children limited to the ages 12 and 13 years, no sex difference in variability was found, but boys preponderated among the very low scores (girls [p.
		Among public school children there are probably more feebleminded girls than boys, since the girls corresponding to the higher grade boys under institutional supervision are evidently left in the population at large.

		When the late Hans Eysenck succeeded Burt as a prominent member of the London School, he also got viciously attacked for a life-long promotion of the study of individual differences with a non-exclusive emphasis on the biological side of human nature.
		The allocation of a school's resources for children with special educational problems cannot be influenced by race; it must be governed by individual needs.
		It was Jensen who refined 20th century psychology's most reliable, stable and broadest applicable measure — general intelligence g — extended it, and brought it safely into the 21st century, despite the twists, shouts and obvious malevolence of the academic left.

	Hans Eysenck (1916-1997)
		The practical aspiration of the London School was that testing would aid selection and counselling in education and the world of work.
		Suitably, Hans Eysenck's Chair in London University was held at the Maudsley Hospital -- London's former 'Bedlam' asylum.
		Studying psychology (since his school curriculum had not included enough science and Latin to allow him to read physics), Eysenck soon found himself surrounded by pacifists who were not keen to fight Hitler at all.

		Some patients brought by ambulance to London's emergency departments have become so frustrated waiting for treatment they have got off their stretchers and walked out the hospital door, paramedics say.
		Running out of places to care for patients, London's busiest hospital emergency room shut its doors to all but the most severe injuries from outside the city for the first time in its history last week.

		Thomdike's influence and his conception of psychology still pervaded the intellectual atmosphere at TC during my tenure and was repeatedly reinforced by an imposing portrait of the great man that hung on the wall above the card-catalogues in the TC library.
		As he was one of the leading pioneers of psychology as a natural science, he became the first of my "heroes" in psychology; the other two (Galton and Spearman) I discovered a few years later.
		I believed that research and teaching in the field of differential psychology, broadly conceived, was exactly the path for me. So I wrote to Eysenck for his permission and applied to NIMH for a postdoctoral fellowship to spend a year in Eysenck's department in London.

		Nor is any accounting attempted of other “noneconomic” spheres such as the livelihood of communities, the stability of families, or the safety of schools.
		One can think of the $919 billion differential as a very rough estimate of the total cost of environmental and social externalities created by economic activity in 1990.
		Given that this amount is actually greater than the net value created that year, it is arguably an analytical strain to continue to refer to environmental and social costs as mere “externalities,” a term suggesting only minor effects of limited interest.

		Identifying the structure of something as complex as human personality is truly one of the grand accomplishments of twentieth century psychology - indeed twentieth century science in general.
		At the time of his death in 1997, Eysenck was the de-facto leader of the London school of differential psychology, noted for its realism about hereditarian factors in human psychology, and traceable back to Sir Francis Galton (the eminent Victorian and cousin of Darwin).
		His hard-edged intellect and enquiring spirit will not be replaced easily, as the rise of empirical evidence to support the role of heredity is met with fierce and concerted ideological opposition and intellectual suppression.
