  • Mental ability can be viewed as human intelligence, or the ability to solve problems constructively without much instruction or assistance.
  • Measuring mental ability is a process of assessing intelligence or cognitive ability, as the brain has distinct compartments for specific abilities.
  • Cognitive ability tests are used to measure mental ability.
  • These tests assess various skills, including reasoning, perception, memory, verbal and mathematical ability, and problem-solving.

Types of Mental Abilities

  • Primary mental abilities:
  • Verbal comprehension
  • Number facility
  • Perceptual speed
  • Word fluency
  • Secondary mental abilities:
  • Crystallized intelligence
  • Fluid intelligence
  • Auditory organization ability

Intelligence
