Example DDI question. What replaces the question mark?

The correct answer to the example question is D.

The following rules can be found to solve the question:

Rule 1: From left to right, the cross moves one place clockwise each time and rotates 45 degrees clockwise each time. This pattern continues onto the next row.

Rule 2: From left to right, the L-shape rotates 90 degrees clockwise each time and moves one place clockwise each time. This pattern continues onto the next row.

Rule 3: From left to right, the pie-shape rotates 30 degrees clockwise each time and moves one place clockwise each time. This pattern continues onto the next row.

The Adaptive Reasoning Test is a test designed to measure your non-verbal, abstract and cognitive functioning. In the test, a candidate is presented with a matrix of 3x3 geometric designs, with one piece missing. The candidates' job is to choose the right diagram, from a set of five answers, which completes a pattern in the matrix that you have to figure out. The questions and answers are all completely non-verbal. This test is widely used as a pre-employment assessment tool.

By practicing Figure Matrix Tests, you can improve your performance during the real test by familiarizing yourself with the format and time-pressure. Important characteristics of Figure Matrix Tests are:

• DDI ART tests are multiple-choice (only one option is correct in each case).
• DDI ART  tests are administered under exam conditions and strictly timed.
• Test takers are usually permitted to use a rough sheet of paper.

The next patterns are often used in DDI Adaptive Reasoning Tests. You are to determine which pattern applies and select the right answer.

1. Several types of figures can be used, even in one grid. Examples of figures are circles, squares, arrows, stars, and triangles. The number of figures used can be of importance in trying to understand the pattern that is used in a specific grid.

2. Every figure can rotate. The rotation can be clockwise or counter-clockwise.

3. Every figure can move places in the grid. This can be a specific number of steps of a back-and-forth movement.

4. The figures can change in size, shape or both.

5. The filling of the figures can change. The total number of figures that have a specific filling can be of importance, but also the specific spot and the specific number of fillings.

6. Note the connection between the different types of fillings and/or figures across different rows and/or columns.

These effective test-taking strategy tips and tricks are well worth remembering before you take the actual DDI Adaptive Reasoning Test:

• Read the question and instructions properly. Even though this seems logical, often candidates miss out very important information. Multiple-choice tests use so called ‘distractors’ as answer possibilities. These distractors are answers options which are deliberately similar to the right answer; in other words, the answer possibilities are designed to test if you read the question and provided information property.

• Take your time to carefully read the information provided.

• Don’t cheat. This is an important one. Many employers use verification tests to validate your previous results, to see if you have collaborated on your test. Large test publishers often use software that compares your response patterns and performance between the online test and the follow-up supervised test.

• Be prepared with a pen and a piece of paper when doing the online test.

• It can be useful to develop a (mental) checklist of strategies to solve the questions. Remember the list of possible rules discussed above. This can help you to work more methodically in the test. If needed, write the discovered rules down.

• Try to focus on one rule at a time. 

Practice makes perfect! You will see that through practice your performance will improve. Familiarizing yourself with psychometric tests is the first step to success. Through practice, you will get a clear picture of what these tests are, what they look like, what they measure, and what the testing conditions will be.
