Numerical Critical Reasoning Test (NMG4)
Similar to NMG1, but it is a new test in Hungary.
Numerical Critical Reasoning Test (NMG5)
Similar to NMG1, but it is a bit shorter test.
Test of Productive Thinking (TPT1.1)
Reasoning is necessary but not sufficient in most jobs: one needs original ideas as well. In many cases it is creativity that differentiates the outstanding and the average manager. This version was designed primarily for recent graduates and junior managers. The test is widely used as part of an Assessment Centre. The test measures in a structured way how creative the candidate is when facing problems, and how much they are able find solutions and explanations. Based on the answers of the candidate one can draw inferences about the fluency, diversity, and originality of their ideas.
Information Technology Test Series (ITTS) for Programmers, System Operators and Software Developers
The Information Technology Test Series is appropriate for the selection, development and promotion of staff working in information technology. The tests measure specific skills and abilities necessary for various IT-tasks.
Verbal Reasoning Test (VIT1)
Measures the ability to evaluate the logic of written information. The test samples a range of computer relevant material such as user manuals, technical manuals, computer text books and computer press articles. The task of the candidate is to decide for a list of statements if they are true or false in the light of the information contained in the passage. The test is not knowledge based but designed to measure whether the candidate has the ability to understand and interpret written material.
Number Series Test (NIT2)
Measures high level numerical reasoning skills rather than skill in computational work. In particular, it assesses the ability to recognise the relationships between numbers, therefore the test is appropriate for any IT job where the recognition of numerical relationships or sequences is important. Calculators are not allowed.
Computer Checking Test (CIT3)
This is a test of speed and accuracy in the checking of character strings made up of letters, numbers and symbols. These are important basic skills in any area of programming and especially important for computer data entry staff.
Syntax Checking Test (CIT4)
Similarly to CIT3, this test also measures speed and accuracy in the checking of strings of letters and numbers, but in this case the candidate has to decide whether a line from a computer programme complies with a set of rules. A highly relevant test for any jobs that include any form of coding, programming or software checking.
Diagramming Test (DIT5)
This test primarily requires logical reasoning. To solve the test candidates must follow a set of instructions to manipulate a series of figures. This test simulates the ability to handle multiple and interdependent commands, an important ability in most IT jobs.
Diagrammatic Reasoning Test (DIT6)
In this test candidates have to infer a set of rules from a flow-chart and apply these rules to new situations. This test is a high level measure of symbolic reasoning ability and is especially relevant in jobs that require the capacity to work through complex problems in a systematic and analytical manner, for example, in systems analysis and programme design.
Spatial Reasoning Test (SIT7)
Measures a candidate’s ability to visualize spatial relationships. Specifically, it measures the ability to visualize and manipulate shapes in three dimensions given a twodimensional drawing. The test discriminates at a high level and measures spatial ability relevant for engineers, designers, draughts people and IT staff working with graphics.
Applied Technology Series (ATS) for Engineers and Technical Staff
Tests of this battery measure abilities necessary for engineers and technicians.
Following Instructions (VTS1)
Measures the ability to follow written instructions. The topics covered are relevant to a technical environment and draw on the kind of material often associated with equipment manuals or operating instructions. No prior knowledge of technical word is assumed.
Numerical Estimation Test (NTS2)
Measures the ability to estimate quickly the answers to numerical calculations. Knowledge of fractions and percentages is required as well as that of basic arithmetic. The task is to select the best estimate from a number of options. Calculators are not allowed in this test.
Mechanical Comprehension (MTS3)
Assesses the understandig of basic mechanical principles and their application to such devices as pulleys and gears and simple structures.
Fault Finding Test (FTS4)
Assesses the ability to identify faults in logical systems. The test requires the candidate to locate what element in an arrangement of colour coded symbols is not functioning. No specialist knowledge, but visual and reasoning ability are required. The test is appropriate in many applications including operating machinery, when quick fault finding is necessary.
Spatial Checking Test (STS5)
Measures the ability to locate differences between complex designs rotated and reversed in two or three dimensions. This ability is likely to feature in the checking and design of electronic systems, engineering components and in some applications of computer-aided design (e.g. CAD).
Diagrammic Thinking (DTS6)
Assesses the ability to follow a sequence of interdependent symbols arranged in a logical order. This ability to apply checks and follow sequences is likely to be relevant in tracking process control systems, debugging software and in systems design.
