Abstract
It is a common practice for teachers of typewriting to
endeavor to increase and measure the typewriting speed and
accuracy of students through the administration of timed
writings. These timed writings are also used as a measuring
device by employment agencies and business organizations in
obtaining and promoting employees.
Studies have established the fact that manual dexterity,
reading ability and intelligence influence the ability of
the student to attain the speed and accuracy necessary to
operate the machine at maximum efficiency.
