a non-verbal test of intellectual abilities, first created by the English psychologist Edgar Anstay in 1944 for the British army as an alternative to Raven’s matrices. The scale is aimed at measuring general (innate) intelligence, the theoretical basis is the model of intelligence assessment by C. Spearman. The technique can be used when working with people who have reached the age of 12. Familiarity with the game of dominoes is irrelevant to the performance of the test.
