An individual's General Cognitive Ability comprises of a number of factors including verbal reasoning, numerical ability and abstract reasoning. A General Cognitive Ability Assessment, sometimes referred to as an Aptitude Test, can be used to measure these factors and provide insight into an individual’s intellectual capacity, including their ability to learn new things, think outside the square and problem-solve new or complex tasks. Research shows that general cognitive ability is a strong predictor of performance potential and job success.
