NON-VERBAL INTELLIGENCE

Non-Verbal Reasoning & Spatial Logic

Non-verbal tests evaluate abstract reasoning, geometric transformations, spatial visualization, and mental rotation without language bias.

Fundamental Non-Verbal Pattern Rules

RULE 01

Pattern Matrix (3x3 Grid)

Look across rows first, then down columns. Check for addition/subtraction of elements, shaded areas, or line rotations.

RULE 02

Rotational Transformation

Identify rotation angles: 45°, 90°, 135°, or 180°. Observe if shapes rotate clockwise (CW) or counter-clockwise (CCW).

RULE 03

Classification & Odd One Out

Count sides, vertices, internal dots, open vs closed curves, and axis of symmetry to identify the anomaly.

RULE 04

Analogous Geometric Figures

Figure A relates to Figure B through inversion, duplication, or color reversal; apply identical rule from Figure C to D.

RULE 05

Paper Folding & Transparent Punching

Simulate crease lines as mirror reflection axes. Unfolding duplicates punch holes across the fold axis.

RULE 06

Dot Situation Logic

Analyze the geometric overlap where a dot sits (e.g. inside triangle and circle only, but outside square).

CONCEPT ILLUSTRATION

Understanding the 3x3 Pattern Matrix

How items transform across rows and columns:

Row 1: [ ▲ ] → [ ▲▲ ] → [ ▲▲▲ ] Rule: Element count increases by +1 across column.
Row 2: [ ■ ] → [ ■■ ] → [ ■■■ ] Rule: Shape remains constant in row; count increases.
Row 3: [ ● ] → [ ●● ] → [ ? ] → Answer is [ ●●● ] (3 Circles).
