Abstract
Item-level data from Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices was compiled for 12 diverse groups from previously published studies. The method of correlated vectors was used on every possible pair of groups with available data (45 comparisons). Depending on exact method chosen, the mean and mean MCV correlation was about .46/51. Only 2/1 of 45 were negative. Spearman’s hypothesis is confirmed for item-level data from the Standard Progressive Matrices.
