This report is based on a master's thesis submitted posthumously for the first author in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the M. A. degree at George Peabody College for Teachers. Reverend Benefee was a black psychology student whose commitment to open inquiry is reflected in his master's topic. Although future colleagues were denied his presence, those who knew him will continue to feel his absence. The contributions of a reviewer of an earlier draft of this manuscript are gratefully acknowledged.
