In addition to work in the schools, the Psychologist also
assisted in the work of the Child Guidance Clinic. Of the 412
children tested during the year, 106 were referred to the Psychiatrist
(26.at the request of the Psychologist), and in some cases further
tests were given by the Psychologist to these children. During the
year 10 children (all boys) were given remedial teaching in reading or
arithmetic at the Child Guidance Clinic at the request of the
Psychiatrist. Altogether, these boys attended for 174 interviews
or remedial education sessions with the Psychologist. Four of the
ten have now been discharged as having reached a satisfactory
standard, and the other six will continue in 1954. The Psychologist
also had 41 interviews with parents or visitors to the clinic.
