Frank, an auto mechanic and father of two young children, described how one of his favorite hobbies support his family: i love picking up broken items that others have thrown away and fixing them. one of my favorite times of the year was called “clean up week” when people would throw away broken appliances and other large items to be taken to the local dump. i sometimes had up to six broken vacuum cleaners in my shop and it felt so good to take parts from each to create one working vacuum. i would spend hours in the shed puttering and felt so proud of myself when i managed to successfully fix something. my problem-solving skills saved us money! i once found a tv with no picture and another with no sound. i set them on top of each other - problem solved! what learning pattern best fits frank’s description above?

Answer.

Technical reasoning.

Explanation:

Logical reasoning tests (also known as critical reasoning tests) are designed to assess a candidate's ability at skills such as how to interpret patterns, number sequences or the relationships between shapes.

As such they have much in common with diagrammatic tests, as well as abstract reasoning tests and inductive reasoning tests. There are also verbal versions of logical tests, examples of which we'll cover in more detail below.

Logical reasoning tests assess a candidate's ability to use structured thinking to deduce from a short passage which of a number of statements is the most accurate response to a posed question. This involves the ability to isolate and identify the various components of any given argument.

Logical reasoning tests are frequently used during the application process at investment banks, accountancy & professional services firms and consulting firms, among others.

The tests are usually provided by an external supplier, such as SHL or Kenexa.

The Different Types of Logical Reasoning Test

The most common form of logical reasoning test you'll come across is the diagrammatic version, which we'll cover first. As some employers also like to use verbal logic tests, we cover how to tackle those, with example questions, in the second section.
