How It Works

Three Simple Steps

No account needed. No reading required. Your child solves visual puzzles — we measure the thinking behind them.

1

Select Age Group

Choose Junior (4–7), Standard (8–12), or Advanced (13–18). Each tier is calibrated with age-appropriate difficulty and question counts.

2

Solve Visual Puzzles

Your child works through pattern, spatial, logic, and number puzzles. Everything is visual — no reading or writing needed at any level.

What We Measure

Four Cognitive Factors

Grounded in the Cattell-Horn-Carroll framework — the most widely validated model of cognitive abilities in developmental psychology.

Pattern Recognition

Fluid Reasoning

Identifying rules, sequences, and relationships in visual patterns. The ability to detect order in apparent complexity.

Visual Puzzles

Visual-Spatial Processing

Mental rotation, decomposition, and spatial manipulation. Understanding how shapes relate in two and three dimensions.

Picture Logic

Inductive Reasoning

Drawing conclusions from visual evidence. Analogies, odd-one-out identification, and inferring rules from examples.

Number Sense

Quantitative Reasoning

Visual number relationships, dot patterns, balance problems, and quantity estimation — all without written arithmetic.

Three Developmental Tiers

Each tier is calibrated for its age group — with appropriate difficulty, question counts, and time expectations.

Understanding Results

Five Performance Bands

Results are reported as percentage-based performance bands — not IQ scores. The focus is on your child's factor profile: the pattern of strengths and growth areas across all four cognitive factors.

This is an educational resource, not a clinical instrument. Results should be used as a starting point for understanding, not a definitive label.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything parents ask before, during, and after the assessment.

How accurate is this test?
This is an educational resource designed to give parents meaningful insight into their child's cognitive strengths, not a clinical instrument. It's grounded in established cognitive science frameworks but should not replace professional evaluation.
Does my child need to read?
No. Every question is entirely visual — no reading or writing required at any age level. Parents can read instructions aloud if needed, but the puzzles themselves are image-based.
How long does it take?
Junior (ages 4–7): about 15–20 minutes. Standard (ages 8–12): about 20–30 minutes. Advanced (ages 13–18): about 25–40 minutes. There's no time limit — let your child work at their own pace.
What do the practice books include?
A 6-chapter parent guide, detailed answer explanations for every question, and age-specific booklets. The Premium edition adds a developmental guide, 32 bonus practice questions, and progress tracking worksheets.
What age should I select?
Choose the tier matching your child's current age. If your child is near a boundary (e.g., a mature 7-year-old), you can try the next tier up — there's no penalty for trying a harder level.
Is my data collected?
No account is required. We don't collect personal information about your child. Assessment results are calculated in your browser and are not stored on our servers.
