An interacting boson model sum rule for the strength of exciting the magnetic dipole scissors mode is used to relate this strength to the quadrupole deformation, resulting in a parameter-free description of the {ital M}1 transition strength over the entire range of nuclei from Nd to W studied experimentally. Also, the experimentally established quadratic dependence on the quadrupole ground state deformation is quantitatively reproduced for nuclei up to Yb, but systematic deviations are predicted for heavier nuclei. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital The} {ital American} {ital Physical} {ital Society}.
