Predictive validity of the Differential Aptitude Test (DAT) was investigated by comparing the DAT scores obtained by students in Grade 9 against their achievement in Grade 12 departmental examinations. Results indicated that the DAT has good predictive power and can be used effectively on a selective basis for counseling and predictive purposes in high schools. (Author)
