They are given in tables XXXVI to XLI. Theyare intended to take the place, each for the grade to which itapplies, of the Table of Frequency for the normal they are asymmetrical, the lower and upper parts have tobe given separately. For the same reason there is no , theuse of the Probable Error as a unit of amount being properlyconfined to normal curves only (Yule, 11, p. 147). Thequartile deviation (Q3 — Qi) might be used instead, but its Derived Forms of Distribution 99. Figs. 37-42. Derived Forms of Distribution. Grades 3 to 8. ioo Spelling Ability—Its Measurement and Distribution value differs for each of the six tables. In order therefore toemploy a unit which should be the same for all, including thenormal distribution, we have retained the of the Proba-bility Integral. It is now no longer a function of the modified dis-tributions, but a mere unit of length. Likewise in order tohave a common point of reference the median of the normaldistribution has been retained, the terms low and high inthe tables referring to parts below or above that point. Thereal median of each modified distribution, however, is given,being expressed as a deviation from the old median. Figs. 37 to 42 are to be considered in connection with tablesXXXVI to XLI, of which they are the graphic expressions (thecurves being smoothed, to represent an indefinite number ofcases). They are also to be considered in connection
