What is a Raven IQ Test?

Raven's Progressive Matrices or RPM is a nonverbal group test typically used in educational settings. It is used to measure abstract reasoning and regarded as a non-verbal estimate of fluid intelligence.

It is the most common and popular test administered to groups ranging from 5-year-olds to the elderly. This format is designed to measure the test taker's reasoning ability, the educative ("meaning-making") component of Spearman's g (g is often referred to as general intelligence).

The tests were originally developed by John C. Raven in 1936. In each test item, the subject is asked to identify the missing element that completes a pattern. Many patterns are presented in the form of a 6×6, 4×4, 3×3, or 2×2 matrix, giving the test its name.
