Abstract

It was the purpose of this study (1) to identify and to group underachievers in the fifth grade through achievement teat scores, report card ratings, and teacher evaluation; (2) to obtain a measure of personality characteristics, expressed attitudes toward school, and visual motor coordination; and (3) to compare the responses of each underachieving group with those of each other group, and with the responses of able successful students.
