Terman, and R. Yerkes, made while supporting the idea of biological determinism.

    Jerzy Kosinski Jerzy Kosinski was born in Poland in 1933 to Russian parents who had fled the revolution. He was separated from his family when the Nazis invaded in 1939. For six years he wandered form village to village scorned by East European gypsies who feared his hawk like face and penetrating eyes. He survived German terror by his wits and he was struck dumb from the shock that he underwent from this six-year period of wandering. He was mute from age nine to fourteen.(New Yorker)

    At the age of fifteen John Goddard had created an impressive 127 life list as goals. That is just incredible, but his goals are more in the long-term rather than short-term like my own personal goals. There is one thing that Goddard stated in his article “I wanted To Do It All”, which was “Nearly everyone, he notes, has goals and dreams, but not everyone acts on them” this relates to the common individual. Goddard views his goals as a guideline that has nothing to do with

As mentioned by Goddard, “It is solely on the governess’ say-so that we agree to the notion that the two specters have returned in search of the children. Again it is on her unsupported word that we accept for fact her statement that, on the occasion in the garden when Miss Jessel first appeared, Flora saw.” (Goddard 165.) What the reader must ask him or herself is that are these hallucinations part of her subconscious
