✦ Synopsis

This report provides new American age norms for Raven's Progressive Matrices (Raven, 1938), based on the screening of 500 vocational counseling and 2992 psychiatric veteran patients newly admitted to a VA general medical and surgical hospital. Reliability data are acceptable, but indicate the need for revision of the Raven. Within the limits set by current reliability, validity data are presented and are positive.
