	Aptitude - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aptitude and intelligence quotient are related, and in some ways opposite, views of human mental ability.
		In the context of an aptitude test the "high" and "low" scores are usually not far apart, because of the fact that all ability test scores tend to be correlated.
		Aptitudes are generally tested in the form of an Aptitude Battery which tests a large number of aptitudes at one time with a series of small tests for each aptitude.

	Aptitude (program) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the time, two other terminal-based APT front-ends were available: the dselect program, which had been used to install Debian since before APT was created, and the console-apt program, a project that was considered to be the heir apparent to dselect.
		aptitude was created to experiment with a more object-oriented design than that used in console-apt, in the hope that this would result in a more flexible program with a broader set of features.
		aptitude is a package with its priority set at important, while dselect is still a required one, due to backwards compatibility.

	Aptitude Analysed
		While the notion of aptitude no longer occupies centre stage in the work of applied psychologists, it and its near neighbours continue to play somewhat ambiguous roles in the wings, not only for academic writers but also for more mundane controversialists and decision-makers.
		Such aptitudes or as yet unexercised abilities are not likely to be attributed to the social environment that has produced or obstructed achievement, and so it is tempting to see them as somehow innate.
		We may all have an aptitude for languages, but this is hardly worth mentioning, except in a Chomskyan comparison with other animals; when talking within the species, only those whose aptitude is particularly noticeable will be attributed an aptitude and it may be denied to the rest of us.

	Achievement Versus Aptitude Tests in College Admissions
		Unlike achievement tests such as the SAT II, which assess mastery of specific subjects, the SAT I is an aptitude test that focuses on measuring verbal and mathematical abilities independent of specific courses or high school curricula.
		Aptitude tests such as the SAT I have a historical tie to the concept of innate mental abilities and the belief that such abilities can be defined and meaningfully measured.
		Contrary to the notion that aptitude tests are superior to achievement tests in identifying high-potential students in low-performing schools, our data show the opposite: The SAT II achievement tests predict success at UC better than the SAT I for students from all schools in California, including the most disadvantaged.
