The Human Problem in Schools (1938): A Psychological Study Carried out on Behalf of the Girls' Public Day School Trust by Marion Milner

Comprising 25 schools, the trust set the standard for girls' education for the first decade of the twentieth century and the pioneering study was set to serve the cause of national education.

Marion Milner documents the study and her findings across four sections with topics covered including: intelligence testing, classroom observations, interpretation of material, varying effects of the environment and interviewing techniques. Sections also discuss practical implications from the research, and the importance of the psychologist in the classroom.
