Sumario:	The article presents a study of the concept formation of normal and subnormal subjects, using a relatively large number of subjects, on a modification of the Color-Form Sorting Test. The subjects for the experiment were 50 normal and 75 subnormal females, ranging in age from 15 to 18 years. The materials included 24 plastic figures: six squares, six equilateral triangles, six acute right triangles, and six four-sided parallelograms. It was found that the subjects with normal intelligence were much more successful in sorting the figures by both color and form.
