CAIT Comprehensive Adult Intelligence Test Equs MelerEcckmanLawler Jonko Lukeatronio Version 2.0 ( 11/1 9 /2022 ) Introduction Welcome to the Comprehensive Adult Intelligence Test (CAIT ). The aim of project CAIT is to provide a free resource for es timating a full scale IQ (FSIQ) score for adults interested in cognitive testing. The CAIT is designed for individuals over the age of 16. The CAIT is inspired by and formatted to resembl e the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). Overall, the goal is to provide a similar but streamlined experience that can estimate FSIQ in a timely manner. Estimating FSIQ across a diverse range of test batteries is the best way to estimate the g factor, or general factor of intelligence. Most online IQ tests concentra te on measuring a single factor. The CAIT is designed to provide a more comprehensi ve view of general intelligence by testing multiple factors. The CAIT is an open ended project that will be updated over time to make it more accurate and more comprehensive If you have taken the WAIS professionally and decide to take the CAIT, please submit your scores to u/EqusB to help improve this test. Disclaimer The CAIT is not a substitute for a professional IQ test. Scores obtained using the CAIT, if taken correctly, are designed to give an accurate estimation of FSIQ . However, the CAIT is not a diagnostic tool and cannot be used in any capacity other than as an informative tool. Individuals seeking a diagnosis or comprehensive psychological report should be tested by a professional. The CAIT is designed for native English speakers and adults over the age of 16. Non - native English speakers cannot receive an accur ate Verbal Comprehension Index. Individuals under the age of 16 cannot receive an accurate IQ score. CAIT Sources and Acknowledgements The vocab ulary items were taken from a SAT Verbal section from 198 5 The general knowledge items were taken from a 2013 battery standardized on American college students. Visual Puzzles and Figure W eights were created by hand with several items inspired by material from the WAIS. Digit span and Symbol search were designed to mimic the formatting of the WAIS as closely as p ossible. Block Design items were created by hand with several items inspired by material from the WAIS. A special thank you goes out to MelerEcckmanLawler and Jonko for automating the subtests. Your hard work is invaluable to this community. Another spec ial thank you goes out to Lukeatronio for providing an additional renormalization of the CAIT source data. The paper can be found here: https://www.docdroid.net/IfbvtOL/cait - norms - pdf An additional thank you goes out to all of the participants in the preliminary data collection stage. CAIT would not be possible without those that volunteered their cognitive testing history and time. CAIT Test Structure Verbal Comprehension Index 1. Vocabulary – 10 Minutes 2. General Knowledge – 10 Minutes Perceptual Reasoning Index 3. Visual Puzzles – 13 Minutes 4. Figure Weights – 1 2 Minutes 5. Block Design (Supplemental) – 9 Minutes Cognitive Proficiency Index 6. Digit Span (Working Memory) – X Minutes 7. Symbol Search (Processing Speed) – 2 Minutes Test Time: Approximately 1 Hour Instructions Each index subtest is listed separately on the following pages. Each subtest can be taken separately at your leisure. CAIT is designed to be taken on a monitor . Do not take this test on a cellphone. Failure to adhere to this may invalidate your test result. No outside resources are allowed at any point during this test. Pencils, paper, calculator, google, etc, are NOT ALLOWED . The use of any outside resources invalidates your test result. Please follow the instructions for each subtest carefully. Failure to adhere to the instructions will invalidate the test result. When finished, please record your raw score an d or the reported scaled score. While the automa ted tests provide a scaled score, use the scaled scores provided in the most t o date version of the manual as the app is unlikely to be updated. If there is ever a discrepancy between the scaled score reported by the app and the manual, the manual is corre ct. Once you have finished all of the subtests, use the tables provided in this document and follow the instructions to determine your IQ score for each index, as well as a general ability score and full scale IQ score. Test 1 - Vocabulary This subtest is 10 minutes long and has 31 items. The goal is to look at the bolded word at the top and choose the word from the list that means the OPPOSITE of that word. You are looking for the ANTONYM of the word in question. Open the link when you are re ady to begin. https://wais - iv - vocabulary - c443c8.netlify.app/ Test 2 - General Knowledge This subtest is 10 minutes long and has 32 items. Your goal is to fill in th e blank and answer the question. Focus on correctly answering questions and do not rush . However, try to spend no more than 20 - 30 seconds on any question Open the link when you are ready to begin. https://wais - iv - general - knowledge - a61995.netlify.app/ Test 3 - Visual Puzzles This subtest is 13 minutes long and contain s 31 items. This test is required to be taken on a monitor . Slow loading times on phone and difficulty viewing items will invalidate the results. Select the 3 options that combine to make the shape at the top without overlapping . The answer MUST be three ; no le ss, no more. You will only receive value for selecting all three correct options. The pieces may be rotated in 360 degrees. Example: Answer: 2 4 6 Open the link when you are ready to begin. https://cait - vp.netlify.app/ Test 4 - Figure Weights This subtest is 12 minutes long and contains 26 items. This test is required to be taken on a monitor . Slow loading times on phone and difficulty viewing items will invalidate the results. Your goal is to determine which figures are equivalent in weight and will subsequently balance the scale when placed in the question mark box on the right. This is a timed test and your goal is to move as quickly as possible between que stions while being accurate. Do not rush, but do not dawdle either. Accuracy will trump speed on this test. Example: Answer: 1 Try the examples inside the link before starting. https://cait - fw.netlify.app/ Supplemental Test – Block Design Note: This is NOT a required test and it is not used in the calculation of FSIQ (Full Scale IQ) or PRI (Perceptual Reasoning Index). However, this test can be taken and combined with Visual Puzzles to produce a separate index, Visual Spatial Index, for those that are interested in a more comprehensive assessment of spatial ability. If interested, use the following link and read the instructions carefully. If not, skip to Test 5. https://block - design.netlify.app/ Test 5 - Digit Span This is a test of memory. Your memory will be tested by having you listen to a series of numbers and requiring you to recall them. In this test, you should listen to the auditory digit prompts and type the numbers that you hear in the response box. This test requires speakers and you will need to be able to hear clearly. Remember that no resources are allowed during CAIT and you can o nly rely on your memory. This test may take 10 to 15 minutes depending on your response speed. Three tests will be administered in a row: 1. Digits Forward 2. Digits Backwards 3. Digits in Sequence When ready, proceed to the link and listen carefully. Additionally, please insert your age and record the Scaled Score at the bottom when you are finished. https://wais - iv - digit - span - 00667a.netlify.app/ Test 6 - Symbol Search This is a test of speed. Above all else, your goal in this subtest is to go as fast as you possibly can without making errors You will be deducted points for making er rors, so never guess the answer and do not respond faster than you can determine the answer. The objective is to determine whether or not ONE of the two symbols on the left side is in the list of symbols and click on it. There can only be either ONE or ZERO symbols in the list. If the symbol is NOT in the list, click NO. *Note: ONLY YOUR FIRST AT TEMPT AT THIS TEST COUNTS. Any additional attempts beyond your first attempt do not count. As such, make sure you are fully focused and in a quiet space before starting. Follow the instructions inside the link below and try the two examples before starting Additionally, please insert your age and record the Scaled Score at the bottom when you are finished. You must change the size of your browser window to adjust the zoom. https://wais - iv - symbol - search - f568d4.netlify.app/ Normalization Tables * Note: All s ubtest 90% confidence intervals are approximately + - 2 Scaled Score (SS) Vocabulary Use the table and record your scaled score based on raw score. *Note: Check the age norms below the table.
