COGNITIVE ABILITIES / ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT BETA
A little space
for how you think.
Explore four kinds of problem solving through original tasks. Learn the controls first, work deliberately, and see a clear record of what you attempted.

THE FOUR TASK AREAS
Different tasks.
A broader exploration.
Each area has one guided practice task and eight scored tasks. These areas overlap in the demands they place on you; their labels are a design description, not evidence of four independently measured abilities.
- 01
Quantitative reasoning
Find a numerical relationship.
Use quantities, sequences and simple mathematical relationships to choose a conclusion. Familiarity with written arithmetic can affect performance.
1 guided example · 8 scored tasks - 02
Deductive reasoning
Follow what must be true.
Work from stated rules and premises. Choose the conclusion they support, rather than relying on outside knowledge.
1 guided example · 8 scored tasks - 03
Spatial transformations
Turn an idea around.
Track the position and orientation of visual elements. These tasks require viewing the diagrams; text and keyboard controls do not make an equivalent nonvisual test.
1 guided example · 8 scored tasks - 04
Memory & ordering
Hold a sequence in mind.
View a short shape sequence once, then reproduce its forward or reverse order after hiding it. You control when the one viewing period ends; interrupted trials are recorded separately.

MAKE THE CONDITIONS YOUR OWN
Practice first.
One deliberate step at a time.
There is no countdown or speed score. For each memory task, choose Show once when ready, then Hide & answer. Keep this tab visible until you submit your response.
- Settle into an unaided session.
Choose a quiet setting. Paper is allowed for reasoning tasks, but memory sequences must not be written down or captured. Avoid calculators, searches and other people’s help. We cannot verify these conditions.
- Learn each area before it counts.
Try the guided example and read its explanation. Practice does not contribute to your total. Scored tasks give no correctness feedback during the session.
- Choose, then continue.
Select a response or explicitly leave a task unanswered. You control when it is submitted. You can revisit eligible reasoning responses; a memory exposure cannot be replayed as the same attempt.
- Review the record.
See submitted responses and recorded interruptions before finishing. Your report separates correct responses, attempts and unanswered tasks for each area.
Pause between tasks when needed. Leaving, hiding or reloading the tab after a scored memory sequence is shown and before a response is chosen marks that trial interrupted. It cannot be replayed as the same attempt and does not count as an incorrect answer.
PROVENANCE, SCORING & LIMITS
Original material.
Transparent boundaries.
A development beta for exploring task performance. It is neither an established IQ assessment nor a validated cognitive battery.
Original tasks. Ownfacet authored the scored tasks, practice examples and visual diagrams for this form. They are not copied, lightly reworded or adapted from SCHUHFRIED, Hogrefe, ICAR, or other restricted test materials. No publisher endorses this assessment.
Why 32? Eight tasks per area provide a manageable fixed development form. This number, the selection, order and difficulty have not been empirically optimized or calibrated. More items alone would not establish greater accuracy.
What is scored? Each correct attempted response earns one point. Incorrect responses earn zero; not-sure, skipped and interrupted tasks are identified separately rather than counted as incorrect attempts. Practice is excluded. We display raw correct and attempted counts rather than converting them to a standardized intelligence score.
Memory administration. Each scored sequence has one participant-paced viewing period. Choose Show once, then Hide & answer; there is no enforced exposure duration. Forward and reverse trials ask for different kinds of ordering. Viewing time may be recorded as session context, but does not contribute to the score. The practice sequence can be replayed; scored sequences cannot.
What is not established? We do not yet have representative comparison samples, age-adjusted norms, independent reliability or validity findings, or evidence that these areas form a defensible combined IQ score. Domain counts should not be used to rank your cognitive strengths against one another.
Who and what can affect the result? Instructions are in English. Reading, arithmetic experience, vision, device interaction, familiarity, interruptions and assistance can all affect responses. Keyboard access supports operating the interface; it does not demonstrate measurement equivalence across disabilities, devices, languages or populations.
Repeated use. Retakes contain the same fixed tasks. A higher count may reflect learning or familiarity. This form is not suitable for diagnosis, education placement, employment selection, or a claim that someone’s intelligence has changed.
Your browser, your choice. When storage is available, progress and the completed result are kept locally in this browser. You can download your record or remove the assessment’s local records. There is no automatic upload of your answers and no public result link containing your responses.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
A few useful answers.
Keep the scope of the activity close to the number it produces.
Is this an IQ test?
It is an original cognitive task beta. It does not supply IQ. A defensible IQ estimate needs a suitable assessment model, evidence and appropriate norms; a visual score display or disclaimer cannot substitute for that work.
How is this different from Matrix reasoning?
Matrix reasoning explores visual matrix construction with a published research item bank. This form uses original tasks across four task areas. Neither provides an IQ score, and the totals cannot be compared directly.
Can I use my phone or a keyboard?
The controls support touch and keyboard input. Use a screen on which you can comfortably read the instructions and see the diagrams. Device effects have not been validated, so a phone and desktop session are not assumed equivalent.
Will my result be shared?
Your answers are processed locally. Saved progress belongs to this browser profile; anyone with access to it may be able to view the result. Downloads are private files you control and may contain personal responses. See Privacy & sharing for the details.
