Mix is known for her cognitive developmental research on number concepts, mathematical reasoning, and symbol grounding. In her book with Huttenlocher and Levine, which focused on quantitative development in infancy through the preschool years, Mix put forth the view that infants begin life without an understanding of discrete numbers, yet are capable of distinguishing and representing ...
Fluid reasoning (Gf): includes the broad ability to reason, form concepts, and solve problems using unfamiliar information or novel procedures. Quantitative knowledge ( Gq ): is the ability to comprehend quantitative concepts and relationships and to manipulate numerical symbols.
Huttenlocher co-authored two books and over 100 research articles on a range of topics including language development, spatial reasoning, memory, and quantitative development. Her book Making space: The development of spatial representation and reasoning, co-authored with Nora Newcombe , provided a comprehensive account of how children actively ...

Nonverbal abstract problem solving, inductive reasoning: Visual Puzzles View a puzzle in a stimulus book and choose from among pieces of which three could construct the puzzle Visual spatial reasoning Picture Completion
The Otis-Lennon is group-administered (except preschool), multiple choice, taken with pencil and paper, measures verbal, quantitative, and spatial reasoning ability. The test yields verbal and nonverbal scores, from which a total score is derived, called a School Ability Index (SAI).
The Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) is a group-administered K–12 assessment published by Riverside Insights and intended to estimate students' learned reasoning and problem solving abilities through a battery of verbal, quantitative, and nonverbal test items.
Fluid intelligence is the ability to solve novel reasoning problems and is correlated with a number of important skills such as comprehension, problem-solving, and learning. [4] Crystallized intelligence, on the other hand, involves the ability to deduce secondary relational abstractions by applying previously learned primary relational ...
