The Gibson Test of Cognitive Skills

Find the why behind the struggle.

Trouble with reading, memory, focus or learning is often caused by weak cognitive skills. One assessment, under an hour, shows which skills are strong, which are holding things back, and where to start.

For children, teens and adults.

Brain Training

The 'Now everything makes sense' moment

Seeing the result is the 'Aha!' moment the families are waiting for.

Once identified, weak skills can be strengthened through brain training.

Strengthening them typically addresses the root cause and removes obstacles to learning.
  • Root cause, not symptomsIdentifies the underlying cognitive weakness affecting performance, helping address the real challenge rather than its symptoms.
  • An informed decisionProvides clear insights to help you select the most effective support based on individual cognitive needs.
  • Time and money savedAvoids unnecessary interventions by focusing on the specific skills that need improvement from the start.
  • A measurable baselineEstablishes a starting point to track progress and measure improvements through future assessments.

Science

Built on proven science

Designed in 1999 by Dr. Ken Gibson, a specialist in pediatric visual processing, the test is based on Gibson’s Learning Model, grounded in the Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) theory of intelligence.

It has strong psychometric properties that meet or exceed standards for educational tests, and is used by psychologists, educators, neurologists, audiologists, speech and language professionals and brain training specialists worldwide.
