Excerpt from Problems of Subnormality
Logically the most basal of these four questions is the first one. It is idle to hope properly to segregate children or adults for special educational or social treatment, or to attempt to eliminate their strains, unless such persons have first been accurately diagnosed. No well-informed person would deny that the accurate mental diagnosis of children in the schools, and of child and adult offenders in the courts, is of the greatest practical importance not only to the individual concerned but also to the state, the nation, and the family. A misdiagnosis will often result in consequences which may prove inimical not only to the individual concerned but also to society. Too much time, therefore, cannot be given to the perfection of the methods and standards of psychological diagnosis.

Excerpt from Problems of Subnormality
There are four fundamental questions relating to mentally subnormal individuals which invite thorough scientific investigation: First, the question of the development of an adequate art of differential diagnosis of the different degrees and types of mental subnormality; second, the question of providing differentiated educational treatment in accordance with the diagnosis for different types or classes; third, the question of the organization of adequate systems of after-care, after-guidance, and control; and, fourth, the question of the development of preventive measures, whether eugenical or euthenical, designed to reduce or eliminate the army of subnormal incompetents.
