Description
Tanja Bipp, Serena Wee, Marvin Walczok, and Laura Hansal published a meta-analysis in twenty twenty-four on game-based tests of thinking skill. Games are used to assess people, but it is not clear if they tap the same skill as standard tests. The team pooled fifty-two samples from forty-four papers, with over six thousand one hundred adults.
Game scores and test scores were linked, with a raw match of point three zero and a corrected match of point four five. The link was stronger when skill was gauged by more than one test. It did not depend on whether the test was on a computer or on paper. Games built to test skill fared no better than games built for other aims. The authors say game tests tap thinking skill but may also tap other traits.
