Paper Summary:
This paper discusses how in 1888 the New Jersey Home for the Education and Care of Feebleminded Children opened its doors to 55 children. Prior to this date there had not been a school dedicated to assisting those with learning disabilities to function in daily life. By 1892 the school adopted a cottage plan that allowed the students to live in cottages on campus and further assist them with their abilities to live independently. By 1900 the school's name had changed to the New Jersey Training School and was operated under the direction of Edward R. Johnstone. Johnstone worked with Henry Goddard to open a psychological research lab in which the "mental deficiencies" of the students could be studied.More papers on The Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale:
