Origins

GET follows the Otis Gamma tradition of compact, group-administered mental-ability testing. Arthur S. Otis developed tests that could be given to many examinees together; his self-administering series appeared in the early 1920s. This collection preserves the GET question set and scoring used by CognitiveTesting.
