With its acquisition of Harcourt Assessment, Pearson is now the largest assessment provider in the world with employment assessments such as the Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal, Bennett Mechanical Comprehension Test and many others. One of their products that pan is pleased to distribute is the Raven’s Progressive Matrices.

Based upon decades of research and originally used by the military to identify astute leaders, the Raven’s is a leading global non-verbal measure of mental ability. It effectively identifies individuals with advanced observation and clear thinking skills who can handle the complexity and ambiguity of the modern workplace.

Raven’s provides information about a candidate’s capacity for analyzing and solving problems, abstract reasoning, and the ability to learn new information. Since it is non-verbal, it also reduces the impact of cultural bias. Meta-analyses consistently show that mental ability measures like the Raven’s predict job performance better than any other single predictor.
