Differential Aptitude Test (Personnel Career Analysis: PCA) – Abstract
Provider/s
Manpower Group
Description
Test Conditions
Assesses the ability to perceive relationships in abstract figure patterns
through generalisation and education of principles from non-language
designs. Each problem requires the perception of an operating principle in
a series of changing diagrams. In each instance, the examinee must
discover the principle/s governing the changes of the diagrams and give
evidence of this understanding by designating the diagram that should
follow logically.
Can be administered online or in hardcopy
