Description:
This is an undated blank answer sheet for the “Engineering and Physical Science Aptitude Test” published by the Psychological Corporation. It is designed to be scored by an IBM test scoring machine of the sort sold from 1937 into the 1960s. The name of the author of the test is not given. However, Bruce Victor Moore (1891-1977), an industrial psychologist on the faculty of Pennsylvania State University from 1920 to 1952 who then worked for the American Psychological Association, published a test with this title with the Psychological Corporation in 1943 and again in 1951. This could be the answer sheet for that test.
The test is marked in part: IBM FORM I.T.S. 1100 A 1018.
