This article focuses on Indian women who were integral to defining mission in the early history of the Christian Medical College and Hospital in Vellore. It is an exercise in (re)reading the biography of Ida Scudder in order to “tease out” of the text the presence and contribution of Indian women. It identifies at least three layers of Indian women who negotiate the complexities of inter-cultural relationships, encourage the tenacity and boundary breaking possibilities of mission, and use the mission theory “Woman's Work for Woman” in their own ways. Woven throughout these layers are actions that broaden the scope of mission, engaging in ministries of healing.

A total of 110 medical undergraduates were included in the study. (male,47 (42.7%) , female, 63(57.3%). A total of 14 participants scored less than 50% and accounted for 12.7%. Seventy-eight participants scored between 50-74, which accounted for 70.9%.

Initial Resistance

A psychogalvanic reflex (P.G.R.) study, conducted in the Department of Psychiatry, Christian Medical College, Vellore, India, is described. 20 subjects took part in this study They consisted of 10 members of the staff and 10 neurotic patients. All of them filled up the Eysenck Personality Inventory A form. A continuous P.G.R. tracing was recorded on a Grass 4-channel polygraph, before, during, and after a standard stress test (Progressive Matrices). A high N score differentiated the neurotic group from the normal group. P.G.R. changes did not differentiate the two groups. N score was significantly correlated to initial resistance change percentage (+0.568) and to initial log change conductance (−0.458). The implications of these findings are discussed.
