In the present study, the relationships between the correct answering of the JML apti-tude test, i.e. “correct answers”, and the time each participant required to answer for each item, i.e. “time to answer”, were assessed. Both single and combined measures were used to analyse the results that were derived from 1028 participants using the JobMatch Logic Aptitude test instrument. These showed that the correlations between “Correct answers” and “Time to answer” were, to the greater extent, both high and in the negative direction (-0.60 to -0.89), which implied that the “correct answers” related strongly with the shorter intervals within the “time to answer”. One exception though arises concerned the mathematical items (-0.27), wherein the tendency of shorter re-sponse time versus a higher proportion of correct answers, seemed not to reach a level of sufficiency. The combined measure of “Rate of answering” produced even higher, yet positive, correlations with “Correct answers”, than did “Time to answer”, with compa-rable relationships appearing for the other combined measure “Prediction of outcome”. The findings are discussed within the context of intuitive processing among individu-als presenting high-capacity logic reasoning in cognitive performance.
