THE SCIENCE
State-of-the-art ability and aptitude tests, based on centuries
of research, for today's selection and development challenges
The assessment of mental, or reasoning ability is one of the oldest areas of research interest in psychology, going back to the work of Sir Francis Galton in the late 1800s. and Binet and Spearman in the early 1900s.
Spearman developed the idea of general mental ability, or 'g', explaining why people who performed well in one intellectual domain (e.g. science) also tend to performwell in other domains (e.g. languages, mathematics, etc.).
This research has been applied in occupational psychology to candidate selection, with Schmidt & Hunter's (1998) review of 85 years of research concluding that reasoning tests can predict up to 51% of job performance and up to 56% of trainability, particularly in professional and managerial roles.
"A comprehensive range of reasoning tests for use in selection, career guidance and coaching
and development, including traditional measures (GRT1, GRT2 and CRTB2), computer adaptive measures (Adapt-G) and role-specific assessments such as the Clerical (CTB) and Technical (TTB) test batteries."
