Abstract
This is an attempt to establish tests for measurement of kinesthesis. For the first sample of 100 college women, 28 measures of kinesthesis and 2 of motor ability were administered. For the second sample of 70 college women, 15 of the previous tests were given and one new one was added. Analysis was made of the quality of the test items and of the inter-relationship of tests. Most of the tests were adequate in reliability. No single test was sufficiently highly related to the criteria employed to be used alone as a measure of kinesthesis, though several combinations gave fair validity. Because of this fact and because of the very low number of significant intercorrelations, it was concluded that kinesthesis is composed of a series of specific functions.
