The LPCAT is a dynamic (test-train-retest) instrument for the measurement of learning potential. It measures the existing reasoning ability (cognitive performance levels) of the individual as well as projected, presently non-developed, learning potential of the person based on non-verbal figural reasoning. The Computerised Adaptive Technique has been used, which implies that each individual is tested at the level of his/her performance as the test adapts to the performance level of the individual and selects items of suitable difficulty level to continuously match the estimated ability level of the examinee throughout the test session.
