Research,Teachers College,Columbia University  \nA series of tests for measuring ability in Esperantoand Ido has been devised and used in the United Stateswith a sufficient number of groups of varying ages andlinguistic backgrounds to demonstrate that they arefairly precise instruments of measurementThere isneed for a wider range of less highly selected groups thanthose previously made available in order to check and ex-tend the preliminary findings.  \nA serviceable technique has been evolved wherebygains made in Esperanto,Ido,or any auxiliary languagecan be put into comparison with gains made in the studyof any vernacular(English,in this investigation).Sofar,results of measurement show that college studentsmake the most progress in learning Esperanto,adultsnext,and then younger children.  \nThese tests with the technique of measurement de-vised for this investigation of the learning of auxiliarylanguages will be serviceable in respect to other lan-guages,since the method of their construction is such asis suitable for any language.  \nThe study throughout is an attempt to substitutefacts and the results of objective measurement for hap-hazard and unsubstantiated opinions in regard to thelearning of auxiliary languages.  \nThe primary responsibility of the Institute of Edu-cational Research has been to provide means of obtain-ing measurements of abilities in reading and under-standing auxiliary languages,and to give tests indesignated languages at the beginning and at the end ofinstruction in every class in such languages where theInternational Auxiliary Language Association has madethe arrangements for so doing.  \n## ESPERANTO\n\nThe experiment to be reported here consisted of cer-tain tests in Esperanto given at the beginning and atthe end of varying periods of study of Esperanto during1925-27 to members of 20 classes organized for almostas many purposes,and in every case except two,outsidethe immediate control of the person administering thetests.With these two exceptions,also,the number ofclass lessons,the attendance upon class sessions,theamount of outside study,the age limits,the qualificationsof students,the time intervals between lessons and tests,the method and the content of the Esperanto_lessonswere not subject to control by the Institute.The taskwas to take the subjects available,and with the testsand technique devised","cbCaioB6VU6uGrkP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioB6VU6uGrkP","pdf",1250839,24,"English","# PROGRESS IN LEARNING AN AUXILIARY LANGUAGE\n## ESPERANTO\n## The Subjects","[{\"question\":\"What is
