A convenient, versatile, and easy-to-use nonverbal assessment of ability.
Raven’s 2 provides a nonverbal measure of high-level observation skills, clear-thinking ability, and intellectual capacity that minimizes the impacts of language skills and cultural differences. This test can be used in a variety of settings, with culturally diverse populations, and/or with nonverbal children beginning with age four and adults up to age 90. This test differentiates between people at the high end of intellectual ability with more difficult items and also offers a set of items applicable at any ability level including the low end of intellectual ability.
The Raven’s 2, now available as a digital solution, reduces inventory concerns, test kit transport, and uses familiar technology designed to put examinees at ease. After completing the assessment, the administrator receives a standard score as well as a percentile rank based on norms collected from the general population.

Using the Raven’s 2 to Assess General Ability Nonverbally
Presenter: Gloria Maccow, PhD, HSP-P and Anne-Marie Kimbell, PhD, MSEd
The Raven’s Progressive Matrices 2, Clinical Edition (Raven’s® 2: 2018) is a nonverbal assessment of general cognitive ability for individuals ages 4:0 to 90:11. The assessment is an integrated revision of the Raven’s Progressive Matrices (RPM; Raven, 1936) which includes the Raven’s Coloured Progressive Matrices (CPM; Raven, 1947), Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices (SPM; Raven, 1938), and Raven’s Advanced Progressive Matrices (APM; Raven, 1947). The Raven’s 2 combines the CPM, SPM, and APM into a single test battery with novel items and contemporary normative information. It can be administered using traditional paper format or digital format on Q-global®, Pearson’s web-based administration, scoring, and reporting platform.
This session will describe the components of the Raven’s 2, directions for administration, technical properties, and interpretive considerations.
