[quote=Anonymous]So, MAP testing is achievement oriented because it tests things that can be learned directly in an academic environment. In the context of MAP-R that's stuff like reading comprehension and inferences from the text. These are topics on which children receive direct instruction in school. The HGC test isn't purely cognitive, BTW. There are "pure reasoning" aspects of analogies, for example, but the outcome can very much be influenced by vocabulary acquisition/instruction. [/quote]
