Raven's Progressive Matrices Puns

I don't think this is on the wiki / on the list. I can understand why, it only norms up to 95th percentile and is ~70 years old, so the Flynn effect must also be taken into account. However, for those with IQs ~<125, or for those who just find Raven tests fun, it might be worth a look. Also, testees are only required to have 55/60 correct answers to be in the top percentile group (95th), so maybe someone can figure out what more correct answers would give you, e.g. if 60/60 would be ~135 or whatever.

Hi fellow psychologists! I am a provisionally-licensed psychologist studying for my EPPP Exam and have a question about the aforementioned assessment/test measures--are there any key differences between Raven's and the Leiter-3 in terms of their content, what is being tested, etc.? When would you choose to use one test over the other? I realize the formatting differs between the two, but otherwise I am having trouble discovering the key differences between these tests or the pros/cons of using one over the other (or when/if you'd ever use both). I know the EPPP won't be super detailed, but I have never used Raven's Progressive Matrices and so I'm asking more because it's bothering me that I cannot differentiate between them.

Or, are these two tests comparable to one another and able to be substituted (e.g., like the WIAT-IV and the Woodcock Johnson-IV for measuring achievement)?

Thanks for helping me get out of this rabbit hole in advance so I can continue focusing on the rest of my studying, lol. Appreciate any insight you're able to share <3.

Which one got better accuracy

Hello, I dont really know if there are subreddits for my question, this is the only community I can think of that I can ask about this. Hope someone can help me, if my post isn't allowed here, its okay the mods can delete it.

So my question is, how do you score the Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices? I have the manual but it confuses me. How do I compare it in the percentiles? Please help me.

Context: I was hired in a school and I really dont have anyone to ask here.

This sub seems to be in possession of RAPM set II but not the first set, I've found the first set of Ravens Advanced Progressive Matrices and checked to see whether it works.

I did almost every Mensa practice test last month. I tried to do all of them under the same conditions, and got very consistent results. It was the exact same score, both on Mensa tests and other online tests (namely Cattell's Culture Fair Test), give or take 2 points.

I noticed that retaking the exact same test (which would defeat the purpose) significantly increased my score, but that the results stayed extremely stable across different APM tests. Whether they were to be done in 10 or 60 minutes didn't seem to impact my score that much, by ~2 points as I said above. (Interestingly my results showed a very consistent decline of ~8 points whenever I tried to do a test when I was tired or didn't get enough sleep. Even the number of points lost due to fatigue stayed viciously stable.)

Until know, I never tried to look for the answers to any CFIT or APM test I've done in order to not skew my results in other tests. So I didn't and still don't know what I got right or wrong, or how was I supposed to answer some of the toughest questions. That might have helped me getting consistent results, as I didn't do these tests to try to have a higher score but simply to verify their validity by myself (I still have had some skepticism about IQ not so long ago).

Isn't the practice effect supposed to impact my performance across different tests? A research I skimmed through says it should.

Any input or clarification from a professional passing by would be very appreciated.

I stumbled upon this test from Pearson: https://www.pearsonassessments.com/store/usassessments/en/Store/Professional-Assessments/Cognition-%26-Neuro/Non-Verbal-Ability/Raven%27s-Progressive-Matrices-%7C-Clinical-Edition/p/100001960.html

Using Raven's Progressive Matrices.

Anybody tried this and if this is legit in terms of assessing your IQ.

What is a raw score of 34/36 in RAPM set II equal to in IQ points? Is it in 120s or 130s?

Most of you might have done this and the ceiling is quite low (my guess 125-130 on modern norms) and especially so with past practice with matrices.

But it's a classic.

Is there a Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices free online test anywhere? Thanks

Hi guys so I’m a 17 year old guy and I’m about to do a RPM exam for my scholarship. Do you guys know how can I practice for it? Thank you

I recently got access to my proctored test score which was taken in grade school. The test was the 'Raven Progressive Matrices' test and my percentile rank was 98.

Do any Mensa members here know if this is qualifying on it's own, or will another proctored test be required?

Hey guys I just wanted to ask about the differences between these two tests. I know that WAIS IV consists of many different types of tests wheres Mensa test consists of pattern recognition only ( at least in my country, RAMP is used). What I would like to know is the following: Is one of these more accurate than the other? If that is the case, is the other one still a fair representation of one's IQ. Do these tests attempt to measure the same underlying thing (IQ) but through different methods? And as a final question: if IQ is composed of many different skills(verbal,numerical, spatial...) how can Raven's test asses IQ if it only tests for one thing: Pattern Recognition. Thanks in advance!

I often argue with "race realists" and a big part of their whole view is that Asians are naturally smarter. There's some other pseudoscience involved—yadda yadda r-k selection, blah blah blah IQ and penis size are inversely correlated—but I was wondering if there might be another reason why East Asians consistently score higher on IQ tests.

I couldn't find any literature on the topic, but it seems to me that East Asians might have a cultural advantage on Raven's Progressive Matrices because their languages all involve memorizing and recognizing lots and lots of characters. I read about something similar in terms of advantages in math, i.e. East Asian languages deal with numbers in a simpler way so children can begin working with numbers at a young age.

Does anyone know? Thanks.

I am currently learning the basics of Intelligence testing. In the book I am using there is an example of one of these matrices as an example of "culture-fair" IQ testing, but no explanation as to how they actually measure intelligence. I assume that if the answers were subjectively determined it would not be a valid measure of anything.

Hello All,

I'd like to use items from Raven's Progressive Matrices as part of a study I'm running. I don't need the exact scale, as I'm just going to be using it as part of a feedback manipulation (vs. actual assessment). Does anyone know how I could go about getting access to items from these scales?

Thanks!

Can the prestigious intelligence test be founded anywhere on the interent - for free ofcourse?

Also the computerized version would be best, with automatic scoring.

So I was reading about IQ and about various tests to measure it. There are probably dozens of those but these two are the ones I know of.

So if I understand correctly the prevalent theory is that IQ is reliant on g factor, some general ability that bleeds into many different cognitive areas. I also read that there's something called g-loading regarding tests. This is where I'd like some answers. Does more g-loading mean that test is more representative of g factor, thus representing your intelligence more accurately?

I've read about how WAIS is the 'gold standard' of testing. Then I looked up some tables with g-loading and it seems that it has more g-loading than Raven's. Would that mean that if you got 120 IQ on Raven's but 130 IQ on WAIS, that 130 would be "closer representation" of your IQ?

Thanks.

TLDR: It seems like some of the matrices might have multiple answers that could follow logically from the information given in each question, which would make them very different from the type of analytical reasoning questions you see on the LSAT (since LSAT analytical reasoning questions can only have one possible logical answer). Is that true? And if so, is that an intentional part of the test?

So for context, I'm very new to this community. I only started looking into things like the Raven's Matrices a few days ago because I was bored and wanted to solve some fun puzzles/exercise my brain a bit. I have taken one IQ test previously (for an assignment in a college cognitive psychology class five years ago, I don't remember which test it was) and I also took the LSAT a few years ago (in addition to having traditional logical reasoning questions, the LSAT has a "logic games" section which, to my understanding, is basically a verbal version of the sort of analytical reasoning/pattern recognition stuff that you see on the matrices). So my familiarity with this sort of thing (and my understanding of what tests of this sort are supposed to be measuring) is based on the LSAT and that one IQ test.

This morning I tried some Raven's matrices for the first time (I did the Advanced Progressive Matrices-II set that someone posted a link to in an earlier thread). I had assumed that the matrices would basically be a visual version of the sort of reasoning you use in the logic games section of the LSAT (and of course that they'd be similar to the visual puzzles I'd seen on the IQ test). That turned out to be true to a large extent (especially the part about them being like the IQ test). But I did notice one thing that, to me, seems like a somewhat significant difference between the matrices and the LSAT.

On the analytical reasoning section of the LSAT, you're provided with a set of interconnecting statements that are to be taken as true. Your job is to organize those statements and understand how they relate so that you can use them to infer a set of rules and then apply them to answer a series of questions. Each logic game has only one possible logical solution, and is set up so that any rule you infer is necessarily either logically correct or not. In short, there's no way to infer an incorrect rule that works logically within the world of the puzzle. With the matrices on the other hand it seems, at least to me, like there are some questions where there isn't en

Here they are. Maybe this has relevance for wiki? The norms are more recent for the APM-2 than the ones on the wiki, but they're only available for 12-19 year olds.

Hello everyone, I recently took two tests: One being the WAIS-IV and one being raven’s. You probably noticed the large discrepancy between the two scores in the title. The caveat is that I have processing in the 4th percentile. I believe this is why my score was lower on the WAIS due to it having 30 second time limits for each question while raven’s has a liberal time limit (approximately a minute per question). I just wanted to hear your opinions on the causality of the discrepancy. I can provide more information if need be.

Suppose you have two people, one with a verbal IQ of 120 and a nonverbal score of 140; the other with both measured as being 130. If you test the two with Raven's Progressive Matrices, which has the highest g loading of all tests, will they come out with the same score? Why or why not?

https://www.pilotest.com/en/tests/inductive_thinking I scored 8/12 Is it good ?

So I was reading about IQ and about various tests to measure it. There are probably dozens of those but these two are the ones I know of.

So if I understand correctly the prevalent theory is that IQ is reliant on g factor, some general ability that bleeds into many different cognitive areas. I also read that there's something called g-saturation regarding tests. This is where I'd like some answers. Does more g-saturation mean that test is more representative of g factor, thus representing your intelligence more accurately?

I've read about how WAIS is the 'gold standard' of testing. Then I looked up some tables with g-saturation and it seems that it has more g-saturation than Raven's. Would that mean that if you got 120 IQ on Raven's but 130 IQ on WAIS, that 130 would be "closer representation" of your IQ?
