- MATCHING ACCURACY TEST (NAMES)
- How well one is able to compare and
- match pairs of names quickly gives
- insight into the workings of the
- brain. Your success in this test
- reflects your ability to memorize
- visual information for a short term.
- Since the brain turns words into
- concepts rapidly, glossing over ir-
- regularities in text, your concen-
- tration is tested as well. Like the
- Numbers matching test, this test was
- based on concepts from widely used
- examinations for clerical workers.
