Sir Francis Galton, the cousin of Charles Darwin, first popularized the notion of measurable intelligence in the late 1800s. Charles Spearman later discovered that all mental abilities tend to correlate together when statistically analyzed. He called this G. Modern researchers tend to agree that there are two kinds of intelligence, crystallized intelligence (learned knowledge) and fluid intelligence (abstract processing ability). Most non-verbal intelligence tests measure the latter. Some research suggests that fluid intelligence may correlate best to G.
Just another test from Similar Minds, the quiz shows you 15 different sets of number patterns, and you have to work out the next next number in the sequence.
I scored 77% on this test, which apparently means I'm better than 77% of the people who took the test before me. ^-^

4 and 16 aren't odd :P
I assumed the base was increasing by 2, 3, 4... etc each time but for all we know it could have been the Fibonacci sequence or something. o_o
I don't think it works.

I just chose 81, it was the next odd square. :S
loathe maths.
i`d like to be better at it and always mean to brush up on it, but always end up doing something animatey instead.
i can track and alter variables and things when i write scripts, so i`m not a complete dunce, just don`t get on that well with maths.
Another one I didn't get was the 4, 16, 49 one. It seems to be a series of squares but it doesn't hint very clearly what the base is increasing by.

But some of those were just totally cryptic.
