Logical Reasoning — Grid Rules

Match the grids that share the rule

Two example grids are linked by a rule — the grid is rotated and each symbol is swapped for another. Work out that rule, then pick the two grids (of four) linked by the SAME rule. A correct pick flashes green, a wrong one red. Rule-finding like this is what logical thinking means in the NATS and FEAST batteries.

What to expect

  • Two example grids sharing a rotation + symbol-swap rule.
  • Four option grids — exactly one pair matches the rule.
  • Select two and submit; green/red feedback.

What it measures

  • Inductive rule-finding
  • Mental rotation
  • Tracking a consistent mapping

Instructions

  1. 1Compare the two examples: note the rotation and how each symbol changes.
  2. 2Find the option pair linked by that same rotation and swap.
  3. 3Select both grids and submit.

Tips

  • Check one attribute at a time.
  • If two rules fit, prefer the simpler one.
What the task looks like

Logical Reasoning — Grid Rules

Two example grids are linked by a hidden rule — the grid is rotated and each symbol swapped for another. You work out the rule, then pick the two grids from four that are linked by the SAME rule.

Rule-finding under time pressure is what logical thinking means in these batteries. It is visual rather than verbal, which is why it is shown rather than written out here — a static description of a grid transformation is not a sample of it.
