Integral indicator of general mental abilities(Ip) is equal to the number of correctly solved problems.

Interpretation of test results

It is advisable to begin analyzing the results by determining the level of general mental abilities. To do this, the number of correctly solved problems (IP) is correlated with the level scale.

The value of the IP indicator	Level of general mental abilities
13 or less	short
14-18	below the average
19-24	average
25-29	above average
30 and more	high

The established level is a multi-parameter indicator of general abilities. This technique allows you to isolate these parameters and analyze them.

Ability to summarize and analyze material are established on the basis of completing tasks on proverbs. These tasks require abstraction from a specific phrase and a transition to the area of interpretation of meanings, establishing their intersections and a new return to specific phrases.

Flexibility of thinking as a component of general abilities is also determined by completing tasks on proverbs. If the subject’s associations are chaotic in nature, then we can talk about rigidity of thinking (for example, tasks such as No. 11).

Inertia of thinking and switchability - these are important characteristics of general learning abilities. To diagnose them, a special arrangement of tasks in this test is provided. Alternation various types tasks in the text can make it difficult for people with inert connections from past experience to solve them. Such persons have difficulty changing their chosen way of working, are not inclined to change the course of their judgments, or switch from one type of activity to another. Their intellectual processes are inactive, the pace of work is slow.

Emotional components of thinking and distractibility are identified by tasks that can reduce the test scores of subjects (24, 27, 31, etc.). Emotionally reacting subjects begin to smile and turn to the experimenter instead of being directed at the object, that is, the task.

Speed and accuracy of perception, distribution and concentration of attention are determined by tasks No. 8 and 13. They reveal the ability to work with a wide variety of material in a short time, highlight the main contents, compare numbers, signs, etc.

Language use, literacy can be analyzed based on the performance of tasks on the ability to use the language. Task No. 8 requires basic knowledge foreign language(within the alphabet).

Orientation is established through analysis of the test subject’s strategy for choosing problems to solve. Some subjects solve all problems in a row. Others - only those that are easy for them and solved quickly. Determining the ease of a solution is very individual. Here, in addition, the inclinations of the test takers are revealed. Some of them look at the tasks printed on this test sheet and first select mathematical problems that have numerical content, while others, using this strategy, prefer verbal problems.

Spatial imagination characterized by solving four problems involving operations in two-dimensional space.

Thus, the CAT technique can be used to study relatively large quantity components of general abilities. With its help, learning ability can be predicted quite reliably and business qualities person.

For example, if a subject has not completed tasks No. 10, 13, then he should be recommended exercises that develop concentration and distribution of attention.
If the subject copes poorly with tasks of type No. 2, 5, 6, then in this case reading will help him explanatory dictionaries, dictionaries of popular expressions and words, proverbs and sayings, dictionaries foreign words and bilingual dictionaries, and is also useful for solving linguistic problems.
If a subject performs numerical tasks poorly, then collections of puzzles are useful for developing the corresponding property.
In the case where the subject has problems with tasks requiring spatial representation, it is important to train concentration of attention on a variety of objects, followed by the transformation of their images into representation.
