SUMMARY

A new way of thinking about intelligence... A new way to measure it

The Das-Naglieri Cognitive Assessment System (CAS) is a norm-referenced measure of intelligence based on the PASS theory of cognitive processing. PASS consists of four cognitive components: Planning, Attention Simultaneous, and Successive processes. These are cognitive functions which form a complex and interdependent system. The CAS is appropriate for use with individuals between the ages of five and eighteen years.
