DUAL

Dual Understanding of Analogies & Logic

The DUAL is a timed reasoning assessment designed to evaluate two complementary forms of cognitive ability: verbal analogical reasoning and numerical sequence reasoning. By combining these domains within a single assessment, the test requires examinees to recognize relationships, identify underlying rules, and apply logical principles across different forms of abstract information.

The verbal items require test-takers to determine the relationship between words or concepts and identify the option that completes an analogous relationship. The numerical items require the identification of underlying patterns, progressions, transformations, or mathematical relationships within sequences.

The test therefore requires flexible reasoning across both linguistic and quantitative information. Rather than relying exclusively on vocabulary or mathematical calculation, the DUAL emphasizes the ability to discover relationships and infer rules from limited information while working under a fixed time constraint.

The test focuses primarily on:

• Verbal analogical reasoning
• Numerical sequence reasoning
• Abstract relationship identification
• Pattern and rule discovery
• Fluid and inductive reasoning
• Rapid analytical problem solving under time constraints
