Test results in India
Students have been tested by professional psychologists since the beginning of the experimental program and after a few years of “Alice Project”.
Prof. Sharma (University of Benares) conducted the same tests on our students and on a comparative group in a private school (an accredited school in Uttar Pradesh that is sited a few kilometres from Sarnath).
Tests results show an improvemenet in the research when compared to the results we got in Italy :
- Increased ability to attentiveness, concentration and self-inquiry
- Increased ability to memorize and visualize
- Higher mindfullness
- Tolerance
- Collaboration and socialization
- Decrease in aggressive behaviour
- Development of emotional intelligence
The results of the comparative group are not improving and the difference between them and our students is increasing.
Some statistical data
Our comparative educational results are good. In October 1997 Professor Sharma from Benares Hindu University (BHU) conducted general IQ testing which showed that 42% of Alice Project children were intellectually above average compared to 15% of children at comparative schools.
There were also significant results in short and long term memory, concentration skills, emotional competence and moral awareness.
