Occupational Plots: Writing

We are preparing plots that show how Foundation examinees working in various occupations score on our standard battery tests. In these plots, we show the mean score for the occupational group on each of our standard battery tests.

The plot for writers is shown on the left. Here we see that writers score particularly high on English Vocabulary, Silograms (word learning ability), and Ideaphoria (rate of flow of ideas). These results are what we would expect based on past research.

This information is useful to an examinee who is particularly interested in a specific occupation, as well as providing supplemental validation for our tests.
