The Fluid Reasonin+ 8nde2 measures one;s a<ility to sol3e no3el tas>s.
/uch tas>s reDuire an indi3idual to sol3e 3er<al and non3er<al pro<lems
usin+ inducti3e and deducti3e reasonin+ and to use ne7 information to
formulate patterns and reco+niGe underlyin+ concepts. XXXX scored the
hi+hest on this factor inde2. 0e scored 7ithin the a3era+e ran+e,
performin+ as 7ell or <etter than *0F of peers his samea+e in the
standardiGation sample for this measure. 0e scored sli+htly hi+her on
the non3er<al fluid reasonin+ su<tests compared to the 3er<al fluid
reasonin+ su<tests.
The Bno7led+e Factor measures an indi3idual;s crystalliGed
intelli+ence. This is acDuired or learned >no7led+e, such as 3oca<ulary.
XXXX scored 7ithin the a3era+e ran+e on this factor.
The 9uantitati3e Factor measures an indi3idual;s a<ility to sol3e
mathematical 7ord pro<lems. $lso, this factor measures an indi3idual;s
a<ility to analyGe fi+ural numerical seDuences and pictorial
mathematical relationships. XXXX scored 7ithin the a3era+e ran+e on this
factor, performin+ as 7ell or <etter than )!F of peers his samea+e in
the standardiGation sample for this measure. XXXX scored sli+htly <etter
on the Non3er<al 9uantitati3e su<test, compared to the 4er<al
9uantitati3e su<test.
The 4isual/patial Processin+ factor measures an indi3idual;s a<ility
to analyGe and duplicate 3isual patterns. This factor also reDuires the
e2aminee to demonstrate understandin+ of 3er<al spatial concepts. On
this factor, XXXX;s score fell 7ithin the a3era+e ran+e. 0e performed
as 7ell or <etter than !#F of peers his samea+e in the standardiGation
sample for this measure.
The :or>in+ -emory factor is a measure of shortterm memory. Tas>s that
in3ol3e 7or>in+ memory reDuire an indi3idual to hold information
presented 3isually or orally in shortterm memory, 7hile mentally
manipulatin+ the information, in turn producin+ a different outcome than
ori+inally presented. XXXX scored the lo7est on this factor, compared to
the other four factors. 0e scored 7ithin the lo7 a3era+e ran+e,
performin+ as 7ell or <etter than #)F of peers his samea+e in the
standardiGation sample for this measure. XXXX scored the same on <oth
the 4er<al and Non3er<al :or>in+ -emory su<tests. Thus he is a<le to
