1IntroductionIn several of my earlier Kogan Page titles I have provided readerswith the opportunity to obtain a greater understanding of IQtesting by means of practice tests in which readers have been ableto familiarize themselves with the type of questions they are likelyto encounter when taking such tests.In this book I have retained some of the question types thathave appeared in my previous books but have also introducedseveral new types of questions designed to measure an advancedlevel of numerical, verbal and spatial ability, as well as questionsinvolving the use of logical analysis, lateral thinking andproblem-solving abilities. The object of this book, therefore, is topresent readers with an even greater challenge in which the 12separate tests have a higher than usual overall degree of difficulty.Such tests are particularly useful to anyone who may need toundertake graduate and managerial selection in the future. Theyare also of value to any professional who contemplates seekingother positions which may involve the use of psychometric testingas part of the selection process, or as a means of internaladvancement in the organization in which they are employed.The book will also appeal to people wishing to test themselves on more challenging questions by moving on from thestandard-level IQ tests of previous books. These readers, whohave already familiarized themselves with the type of IQ tests
2Advanced IQ testscontained in my previous books, will now be ready to move onto a greater challenge.As with athletes who push out the boundary of their abilitiesby the use of even more rigorous training schedules andrefinement of techniques, an increase in brainpower can beachieved by taking on greater mental tasks and challenges. Afurther advantage to be gained from tackling the more advancedquestions is that readers will automatically improve their performance on standard IQ test questions.Because they have been newly compiled for this book, the teststhat follow have not been standardized, so an actual IQ ratingcannot be given. However, there is a guide to performance at theend of each test, and there is also a cumulative guide for youroverall performance on all 12 tests. The performance assessmentis particularly useful to users of this book as the feedbackprovided will give them the opportunity to identify their ownstrengths and weaknesses. This will enable readers to build ontheir strengths and work at improving their performance in areasof weakness.Each test consists of 30 questions. The tests are all multidisciplinary, which provides the opportunity to practise on the rangeof questions you are likely to encounter in actual IQ tests.A time limit of 120 minutes is allowed for each test. Answersand explanations, where necessary, are provided and you shouldaward yourself one point for each completely correct answer.The use of a calculator is not permitted in respect of thenumerical questions, which are designed to test your aptitudewhen working with numbers as well as your powers of mentalarithmetic.Aspects of IQ testingOf the different methods that purport to measure intelligence, themost famous is the IQ (Intelligence Quotient) test, which is a
Introduction3standardized test designed to measure human intelligence asdistinct from attainments. Usually IQ tests consist of a gradedseries of tasks, each of which has been standardized with a largerepresentative population of individuals in order to establish anaverage IQ of 100 for each test.There are a number of different types of intelligence tests, forexample Cattell, Stanford-Binet and Weschler, and each has itsown different scale of intelligence.It is generally accepted that a person’s mental age remainsconstant in development to about the age of 13, after which it isshown to slow up, and beyond the age of 18 little or noimprovement is found.When the IQ of a child is measured the subject attempts an IQ testthat has been standardized, with an average score recorded foreach age group. Thus a 10-year-old child who scored the resultthat would be expected of a 12-year old would have an IQ of 120,or (12 10) 100. Because after the age of 18 little or noimprovement is found, adults have to be judged on an IQ testwhose average score is 100 and the results graded above andbelow this norm according to known test scores.Although it is generally accepted that it is not possible, inadulthood, to increase your actual IQ, it is possible, paradoxically, to improve your performance on IQ tests by practising onthe various types of question, and learning to recognize therecurring themes. By constant practice on different IQ tests, andby getting your mind attuned to the different types of questionyou may encounter, it is possible to improve your IQ rating byseveral percentage points.It should be pointed out that while IQ tests measure a varietyof different types of ability such as verbal, mathematical, spatialand reasoning skills, it is now becoming increasingly recognizedthat there are many different types of intelligence and that a highmeasured IQ, although desirable, is not the only key to success inlife. Other characteristics such as outstanding artistic, creative or
4Advanced IQ testspractical prowess, especially if combined with personal characteristics such as ambition, good temperament and compassion,could result in an outstanding level of success despite a lowmeasured IQ.Nevertheless, during the past 25–30 years IQ testing, intandem with personality profile testing, has been brought intowidespread use by employers because of the need to ensure theyplace the right people in the right job at the outset. One of themain reasons for this is the high cost of errors in today’s world oftight budgets and reduced profit margins. To recruit a newmember of staff an employer has to advertise, consider eachapplication, reduce the applicants to a shortlist, interview andthen train the successful applicant. If the wrong hiring choice hasbeen made, the whole expensive process has to be repeated.Although it is IQ tests which we are specifically concerned within this book, it should be pointed out that IQ tests are just onepart of what is generally referred to as psychometric testing. Suchtest content may be addressed to almost any aspect of our intellectual or emotional make-up, including personality, attitude,intelligence or emotion.Psychometric tests are basically tools used for measuring themind: the word ‘metric’ means measure and the word ‘psycho’means mind. There are two types of psychometric tests that areusually used in tandem by employers. These are aptitude testswhich assess your abilities, and personality questionnaires whichassess your character and personality.Aptitude tests are also known as cognitive, ability or intelligence(IQ) tests. Such tests are designed to test your ability tocomprehend quickly under strictly timed conditions. Cognitionmay be broadly defined as knowing, perceiving and thinking, andit is studied by psychologists because it reveals the extent of aperson’s ability to think.
