General instructions on submitting answers :

– You will be asked for some data: Name, surname and age (REQUIRED), nationality (optional), gender (optional) and former scores on  supervised and/or untimed tests (optional but very helpful, especially scores on standard supervised psychometric batteries).

–Pricing (through PayPal, to hriqtests-at-gmail.com) :

NGT-F, TN II, NSS-I : Free of charge

-In case of free of charge tests (Contests etc), identity verification is needed (ID, driving license or passport). Relevant documentation must be written in latin or cyrillic alphabet; other kind of documentation or documentation including other languages, won’t be accepted. Name, Surname, Date of birth must be visible. Rest of data can be covered. A fee of 12 Euro (through paypal, to the aforementioned address) may apply as an alternative identity verification method, for everyone that wishes not to share their documentation. In case of fee-requring tests, ID verification is not required, except in cases that paypal address owner and test-requesting person are different. People aged under 18 CANNOT try these tests. Note that, free attempts earned through participation in contests should be used within 6 months of the end of relevant contest.

-Public discussion on tests’ items or proposition of possible answers is strictly prohibited.

-IQ Estimation : High range tests require various aspects of cognitive processing, in order to be solved. However, link to IQ is only theoretical and based on specific statistical processing. Making it simple, if normed well (and if they do fulfil certain conditions, such as high reliability and high validity) they can theoretically lead to one’s rough IQ estimation. One may find many relevant crucial information on each test’s stats page. But they strictly remain mental puzzles and nothing more than that. Such tests do not substitute official standardized batteries, estimated theoretical IQ should be taken with a grain of salt and cannot in any way be used as a proof of someone’s IQ. If you want official estimation of your IQ (for work, health or any reason), do consult a clinical psychologist.
