Wiesen Test of Mechanical Aptitude

Wiesen Test of Mechanical Aptitude

The Wiesen Test of Mechanical Aptitude (WTMA) is a brief, written test of mechanical aptitude.

20 Wiesen Test Booklets ($22 each) - $440.00

The WTMA measures basic ability rather than formal schooling or job experience.

It uses pictures and simple sentences to ask questions about everyday objects and situations.

In that way, the WTMA is designed to give all candidates an equal chance to do well, whatever their academic preparation or work experience.

Mechanical aptitude helps people learn about and use tools, machines and equipment.

The WTMA is designed for use in selecting entry-level personnel for jobs involving the operation, maintenance, and repair of mechanical equipment of various types.

The WTMA is available in a self-scoring, and a computer or hand scoring format.

In a group of 80 African American and Hispanic students, there was no significant difference in scores of males and females.

The Wiesen Test of Mechanical Aptitude has 60 questions in a multiple-choice format. Each question uses a diagram with everyday objects to illustrate a mechanical principle or fact. It has been found to be highly correlated with other measures of mechanical aptitude.

Test scores were significantly related to performance as rated by supervisors of 102 employed machine operators. The mean was 63% and standard deviation was 13.88. Test scores were also significantly correlated with performance ratings of 169 employed chemical operators.

Administration manuals generally include information about administering the test, scoring the test, and interpreting the scores. They do not include a sample copy of the test or an answer key.
