Cognitive Skill Measure

A Cognitive Skill Measure is an intelligence measure of a cognitive agent's ability to perform cognitive tasks.

• AKA: Cognition Competence.
• Context:
  • output: a Cognition Competence Score.
  • It can (typically) evaluate Mental Processing through task performance.
  • It can (typically) assess Cognitive Function through capability testing.
  • It can (typically) measure Problem-Solving Ability through challenge completion.
  • It can (typically) track Learning Capacity through skill acquisition.
  • It can (typically) gauge Memory Function through recall testing.
  • ...
  • It can (often) analyze Information Processing through cognitive load.
  • It can (often) evaluate Decision Making through choice assessment.
  • It can (often) measure Attention Control through focus testing.
  • It can (often) assess Executive Function through task management.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Basic Cognitive Test to being an Advanced Mental Assessment, depending on its complexity level.
  • It can range from being a Single Domain Measure to being a Multi-Domain Cognitive Assessment, depending on its scope.
  • It can range from being a Specific Skill Test to being a General Cognition Measure, depending on its measurement breadth.
  • ...
  • It can integrate with Performance Tracking Systems for progress monitoring.
  • It can support Cognitive Development through skill assessment.
  • It can inform Learning Strategy through competence analysis.
  • ...
• Examples:
  • Fundamental Cognitive Measures, such as:
    • Basic Mental Processes, such as:
      • Memory Capacity Test for information retention.
      • Attention Span Measure for focus ability.
    • Advanced Cognitive Functions, such as:
      • Numeracy Measure for mathematical thinking.
      • Mathematical Competence for numerical processing.
  • Applied Cognitive Measures, such as:
    • Practical Skill Assessments, such as:
      • Financial Skill Measure for economic reasoning.
      • Problem-Solving Test for analytical ability.
    • Higher-Order Thinkings, such as:
      • Theory of Mind Measure for social cognition.
      • Consciousness Measure for awareness level.
  • Cognitive Load Measures, such as:
    • Processing Demand Tests, such as:
      • Task Complexity Measure for cognitive demand.
      • Mental Workload Assessment for processing capacity.
  • ...
• Counter-Examples:
  • Athletic Skill Measure, which assesses physical capability rather than mental function.
  • Motor Skill Test, which evaluates physical coordination rather than cognitive processing.
  • Physical Endurance Measure, which gauges bodily stamina rather than mental capacity.
• See: Linguistic Competence, Emotional Intelligence, Abstract Thought, Cognitive Assessment Framework, Mental Capability Evaluation.
