The objective of this study was to determine if a statistically significant positive
relationship exists between the cognitive tests (APIL and Critical Reasoning
Test Battery - NCR2 and VCR2) and the academic performance of students
on an MBA programme. A quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted
on a non-probability purposive sample (N=329) of MBA students at an
institution of higher learning in South Africa.
A theoretical relationship was established between the variables. The
empirical relationship revealed statistically significant relationships between
the cognitive tests and academic performance on an MBA programme.
The findings contribute valuable knowledge to the field of psychological
assessment that can be applied in the selection of students for higher
education. / Industrial & Organisational Psychology / M. Com. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology)
