โฆ Synopsis
Psychometric" and physical data were investigated as predictors of six different craftmanship skills in a sample of 290 children (Female = 131; Male = 159), at age 12+ in a Manchester comprehensive school. The results of regression analysis indicate that certain craftmanship skills can be predicted by reference to specified cognitive and physical measures. Only one of the craftmanship skills (transverse error in making a saw cut) was shown to be related to the sex of the child, boys being more accurate than girls.
