Abstract/Notes: 82 subjects, ages 7 to 11 yr., from two private schools, Maharishi School of the Age of Enlightenment and a Montessori school, were given the Children's Embedded Figures Test. The 48 students of the former (20 boys, 28 girls, M age = 8.98 yr.), who practice the Transcendental Meditation program as part of their curriculum, scored significantly higher on field independence than the 34 Montessori school subjects (17 boys, 17 girls, M age = 8.60 yr.).

Abstract/Notes: This paper expands on previous work on charter school typology and presents disparities in standardized test outcomes across models by using standardized Z-Scores weighted by NAEP performance. Analyses indicate that in ELA, Classical schools have the highest relative performance, followed by Montessori and Art schools. In math, Classical school once again have the highest relative performance, followed by Montessori and STEM schools. For reasons discussed in the paper it is premature to posit causality, so the results should instead be viewed as descriptive. We suggest a more pluralistic testing framework may be appropriate when evaluating the performance of specialized schools.
