The Assessment of Mathematical Abilities.
Osborn, Herbert H.
Educational Research, v25 n1 p28-40 Feb 1983
A test was given to 322 secondary students to develop a profile of mathematical ability based on four components: computation, pattern recognition, logical reasoning, and symbolic manipulation. These profiles were compared to mathematics test scores; the results verified hypotheses about individual differences in mental processes and knowledge acquisition. (SK)
