- Carol Blanche Cotton (Carol C. Bowie) (August 20, 1904 - November 22, 1971) was an American psychologist. She was born in the city of Henderson, North Carolina, the only child of John Adams Cotton and Maude (Brooks) Cotton. Carol Cotton received her bachelor's degree from the Oberlin College, her master's from Columbia University in 1927, and her PhD from Department of Psychology, University of Chicago in 1939. She was elected to the scientific honor society Sigma Xi. Her dissertation "A study of the reactions of spastic children to certain test situations" studied how children with the condition spastic paralysis performed in cognitive tests compared to matched children who matched similarly by sex, age, and mental age. The study found that spastic children had different test responses such as "bizarre or fantastic responses", more concrete than abstract, and more stereotypical compared to normal children. Their resulting hypothesis suggests that these tendencies are most likely due to cortical injuries from spastic children. A neurological diagnosis would be necessary to confirm this study's hypothesis. (en)
