Reasoning & Quantitative aptitude course series

OBJECTIVE :

NON VERBAL REASONING

Non verbal reasoning tests measure your ability to recognize patterns, analogies and

classifications in diagrams. They offer multiple choice questionnaires. You are not required

specific language skills to solve the problems. Even your acquired knowledge in some particular

field is not tested.

The non verbal reasoning tests have been showing a high level of reliability and a good

predictive validity. They are considered culturally free IQ tests. They are not only used in job

screening process but also to recruit students for different academic trainings.

What is non verbal reasoning?

Simply put non verbal reasoning is all reasoning that is not verbal reasoning and verbalreasoning is the ability of reasoning by using concepts framed in words. So actually non verbal

reasoning is a term which stands for a broad range of reasoning skills like e.g. abstract reasoning

diaghrammatic reasoning, spatial reasoning, numerical reasoning and many more.

Non-verbal reasoning involves drawing conclusions based on a set of facts either fictional or non

fictional. Exercises include activities like describing the similarities and differences between two

pictures, finding the shape that does not belong in a sequence of shapes, predicting what shape

should next appear in the sequence, and so on. Non-verbal reasoning exercises can also include

numerical and aural activities, where non-speech sounds must be matched, differentiated, or

compared and contrasted and even some syllogisms can be categorized as non verbal reasoning.

Fibonicci contains a broad range of these non verbal reasoning problems for you to practice:

abstract reasoning tests

spatial reasoning tests

instrument comprehension tests

number sequences tests

Non verbal reasoning in everyday life

But also in the everyday life even though speech is the most obvious form of communication.One’s non verbal reasoning skills are an invaluable asset, since people are constantly bombarded

by non verbal impulses, signals and gestures. Actually people use their non verbal intelligence

much more then their verbal intelligence. Almost everything you will encounter in life you will

first judge by visual interpretation, because this is simply the easiest, fastest and it can be done

without drawing attention to oneself. So your first impression of something or somebody is

almost always based on your non verbal reasoning skills. For example if you try to judge

somebody on their looks you are actually using non verbal reasoning to do this.

Solutions to Exercise problems:

1.Answer: Option C

Explanation:

In each step, the pin rotates 90oCW and the arrow rotates 90oACW

2.Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In one step, the figure gets laterally inverted and one line segment is lost from the upper end of

the RHS portion of the figure. In the next step, the figure gets laterally inverted and one line

segment is lost from the upper end of the LHS portion of the figure.

3.Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The elements move in the sequence's and alternately.

4.Answer: Option D

Explanation:

All the elements move half-a-side of the square boundary in ACW direction in each step. Also,

first, third and fifth elements are replaced by new elements in one step and second, fourth and

sixth elements are replaced by new elements in the next step. The two steps are repeated

alternately.

5.Answer: Option E

Explanation:

In the first step, the ACW end element moves two spaces (each space is equal to half-a-side of the square boundary) in an ACW direction. In the second step, the CW-end element moves three

are repeated to continue the series.

6.Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The symbols move in the sequence in the first step. In each subsequent step, the symbols

move in the sequence obtained by rotating the previous sequence through 90oACW. Also, in

each step, the symbol that reaches the encircled position gets replaced by a new one.

7.Answer: Option D

Explanation:

In each step, all the elements move to the adjacent corner (of the square boundary) in a CW

direction and the element that reaches the upper-left corner gets vertically inverted.

8.Answer: Option C

Explanation:

In each step, one line segment is lost from the CW-end of the outer element and a new line

segment appears at the ACW-end. Also, the inner 'L' shaped element rotates 90oCW in each step.

9.Answer: Option D

Explanation:

In each step, the first element moves to the third position and gets replaced by a new element; the

second and the third elements move to the first and the second positions respectively and the

entire figure rotates 90oCW.
