A few, or many, signs of vasomotor instability, emotional tension, and transitory or chronic organic dysfunction may be shown by a man without it necessarily following that he would be unable to adjust to camp or army life. These findings only show us that such a man should be carefully studied. Information as to how he handles these symptoms or reactions—what his attitudes may be toward them—is more important at times than are the findings themselves. We must make up our mind as to a man's capacity to adjust in the presence or absence of signs and symptoms of this character, judging him more from his past history, his adjustment in his everyday life, and his general capacity to maintain what seems to have been characteristic of him in the past.
