Abstract
Maier's pendulum problem is described and a logical analysis presented of certain points in his design. Experiment I gives no support to Maier's conclusion that "Direction" has an effect, nor to the hypothesis that the difficulty of the problem hinges around the use of the ceiling. Other experiments show that an understanding of the "principles" is a decisive condition in accounting for the results with this problem.
