Tests Flashcards
The _ is a nonverbal intelligence test designed to measure abstract reasoning and general cognitive ability (often referred to as “fluid intelligence”).
Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM)
RSPM is a series of _ multiple-choice questions that present visual analogy problems.
60
_ is where test-takers analyze patterns in a matrix of geometric figures to select the missing figure that completes the pattern.
Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM)
The _ is often used in clinical, educational, and scientific settings. It’s also included in research on patients with cognitive deficits. The _ is considered a culture-fair test that minimizes the impact of cultural or language bias. It was originally designed to evaluate the intellectual abilities of military personnel during World War II.
RSPM
The RSPM assesses _ and _.
nonverbal reasoning abilities; problem-solving skills
_ is used to evaluate fluid intelligence, which refers to the ability to solve novel problems independently of acquired knowledge.
RSPM
_ refers to the ability to solve novel problems independently of acquired knowledge.
Fluid intelligence
What test is being described?
The items are presented as a series of matrices or visual patterns. Each matrix has a missing section, and the task is to identify the correct piece from a set of options that logically completes the pattern. The test is divided into 5 sets (A, B, C, D, and E), with increasing difficulty.
Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM)
In RSPM, set _ is for basic visual patter completion.
A
In RSPM, set _ is for increasingly complex patters and logical sequences.
B
In RSPM, set _ is for progressive spatial and abstract asoning problems.
C
What is being described in the statements:
Time: Typically 45–60 minutes, although the test can be untimed depending on the setting.
Format: Can be administered in both individual and group settings.
Age Range: Suitable for ages 6 and up (children, adolescents, and adults).
Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM)
The _ is a widely recognized tool for assessing abstract reasoning and fluid intelligence. Its nonverbal, culture-fair design makes it a valuable instrument in educational, clinical, and occupational settings.
Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM)
The _ is a battery of tests that measures a person’s cognitive abilities and aptitudes and is used to help people understand their strengths and weaknesses. It is considered reliable and valid and is used to help people choose career and educational paths.
Differential Aptitude Test (DAT)
In DAT, _ measures the ability to reason with written concepts.
Verbal Analogies
In DAT, _ measures the ability to reason with numbers and perform arithmetic.
Numerical Calculations
In DAT, _ measures inductive reasoning using numbers and basic arithmetic.
Numerical Sequences
In DAT, _ measures the ability to learn new things quickly and solve unfamiliar problems.
Abstract Reasoning
In DAT, _ measures spatial awareness and the ability to visualize 3D objects from 2D
diagrams
Space Relations
The _ score is reported as a percentile or stanine, which indicates how a person’s performance compares to other test-takers.
DAT
The average DAT score is _, and competitive scores are in the top 25% at 19 to 20 or higher.
