Addressing the Raven's Progressive Matrices Test of "General" Intelligence
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Raven’s Progressive Matrices (RPM) test is a commonly used test of general human intelligence. The RPM is somewhat unique as a general intelligence test in that it focuses on visual problem solving, and in particular, on visual similarity and analogy. We are developing a small set of methods for problem solving in the RPM which use propositional, imagistic, and multimodal representations, respectively, to investigate how different representations can contribute to visual problem solving and how the effects of their use might emerge in behavior.

A Fractal Analogy Approach to the Raven's Test of Intelligence
We present a fractal technique for addressing geometric analogy problems from the Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices test of general intelligence. In this method, an image is represented fractally, capturing its inherent selfsimilarity. We apply these fractal representations to problems from the Raven's test, and show how these representations afford a new method for solving complex geometri...

Article history: Received 1 June 2007 Received in revised form 23 April 2008 Accepted 29 April 2008 Available online 9 June 2008 Various taxonomies of Raven's Advanced ProgressiveMatrices (APM) items have been proposed in the literature to account for performance on the test. In the present article, three such taxonomies based on information processing, namely Carpenter, Just and Shell's [Carpe...
متن کاملRaven's is not a pure measure of general intelligence: Implications for g factor theory and the brief measurement of g
a r t i c l e i n f o It has been claimed that Raven's Progressive Matrices is a pure indicator of general intelligence (g). Such a claim implies three observations: (1) Raven's has a remarkably high association with g; (2) Raven's does not share variance with a group-level factor; and (3) Raven's is associated with virtually no test specificity. The existing factor analytic research relevant t...
متن کاملOn the Relationship between General Factor and Foreign Language Proficiency
Raven Progressive Matrices (RPMs) and Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WSIC-R) are two common general intelligence measuring scales used in Iranian high schools. In this paper the relationships between g factor scales and students’ reading comprehension, grammar, and vocabulary was examined by correlation and regression analysis. Standard tests of grammar and vocabulary and Cambridge K...

Despite the fact that the contents of items on the Raven's Progressive Matrices have little similarity to the content of subjects taught in school, the correlation coefficients between IQ scores and achievement test scores have been estimated to be about 0.5. Six groups of 20 students were randomly selected from the first, second, and third grades of urban and rural guidance schools in Shahr...
