Mechanical Spatial & Abstract Reasoning

'Mechanical Spatial & Abstract Reasoning' provides an overview of key principles relating to mechanical spatial and abstract thought.<br><br>The aim is to facilitate the following learning outcomes.<br><br>+ Identify individual elements within a group of elements;<br><br>+ Identify a rule connecting a set of figures;<br><br>+ Complete a number of test questions by applying a rule connecting a set of figures;<br><br>+ Apply techniques aimed at increasing the speed at which logical rules are generated (the faster a person generates solutions the higher the probability of a correct answer-in a given period of time);<br><br>+ Increase the number of elements a person can keep track of in responding to an item (span capacity). Someone with a larger span capacity than someone else can take into account more figures without making errors and hence has a larger probability of a correct answer.<br><br>Mechanical Spatial and Abstract Reasoning ability is a key element in identifying aspects of person's general intelligence. That is why the vast majority of psychometric tests will have a component that relates to abstract and spatial reasoning.<br>This ebook will provide a measure of eductive ability or fluid intelligence which is relatively independent of specific learning acquired in a particular cultural or educational context.
