Mentally Defective Children is a book written by Alfred Binet and originally published in 1914. The book is a comprehensive study of the mental abilities of children who are considered to be mentally defective. Binet was a French psychologist who is best known for developing the first practical intelligence test, the Binet-Simon scale. In this book, Binet presents his research on the cognitive and intellectual abilities of children who are classified as mentally defective. He identifies various types of mental defects, including idiocy, imbecility, and feeble-mindedness, and explores the characteristics and symptoms of each. He also discusses the various causes of mental defects, such as heredity, disease, and injury.Binet provides a detailed analysis of the mental abilities of mentally defective children, including their memory, attention, perception, and reasoning skills. He also examines their emotional and social development, and discusses the best methods for educating and caring for these children.Overall, Mentally Defective Children is a groundbreaking work that laid the foundation for modern research on mental disabilities. Binet's insights and findings continue to inform our understanding of cognitive and intellectual abilities, and his work has had a profound impact on the field of psychology.With An Appendix Containing The Binet-Simon Tests Of Intelligence And An Introduction By Professor Alexander Darroch.
