Abstract Reasoning Test (ART)

in Ability

The Abstract Reasoning Test is classified by the HPCSA as a psychological test.

It is a fairly challenging non-verbal reasoning test, with items of a matrix-completion type format. It is suitable for respondents who have at least a grade 12 level of education. It is intended to be used alongside the the Critical Reasoning Test Battery which measures Numerical Critical Reasoning and Verbal Critical Reasoning, thus forming a suite which covers the three main reasoning domains targeted by Psytech’s ability batteries.

We are currently looking for further research opportunities relating to the bias and fairness of this test, as well as predictive validity studies.
