Abstract

An experimental “Test of Abstract Reasoning” was tested for content validity by comparing it with the Abstract Reasoning Test, Form A, of the Differential Aptitude Tests and the Gorham Proverbs Test. Two hypotheses were investigated: (1) that the investigator's “Test of Abstract Reasoning” would yield a significant correlation with the other two tests and (2) that males and females would not display significant raw score differences on the new test. The three tests correlated with each other similarly, ranging from .411 to .496 ( N = 48, P < .01). No response differences were found between males and females. The results indicated that the three tests seemed to measure similar intellectual processes in abstract reasoning.
