A comparison of conventional and automated administration of Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices

Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of presenting automatically Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices. The results were shown to be comparable with those obtained by conventional administration. Considerable savings of clinician’s time were achieved without sacrificing the accuracy of test results. This paper presents data collected from North Staffordshire Health District using auto-presentation equip-ment developed at U.M.I.S.T.
