THE MEASURE OF OVERLAPPING The measure of overlapping in this study is the per cent of the pupils in any grade who equal or exceed the median score of the next grade or the second grade above; or the per cent of the pupils in any grade who go below the median score of the next grade or the second grade below. The former will be referred to as over- lapping "upward" and the latter as overlapping "downward. " The value of this measure of overlapping is shown in the follow- ing statements by Profe...ssor Thorndike, and by his accompany- ing diagrams. (21) "The great advantage gained by comparing groups by the per cent of one group reaching or exceeding the point on the scale that is reached or exceeded by a given per cent of the other group is that results are mutually comparable what- ever the traits may be ... Another advantage lies in the fact that this percentile comparison reminds one constantly of the overlapping of the two groups, when such exists. " The distributions on which the per cents of overlapping are calculated will be found in the Appendix.
