The Highlands Abilities Battery The Highlands Ability Battery™ measures abilities objectively. It does this through actual samples of performance called worksamples. These enable you to know what kinds of tasks and jobs will come quickly and effortlessly and also what kinds of tasks will be more difficult. The results are given as percentiles. This means that the results on each worksample were compared to the results of all persons who have taken the same worksample. The percentile score gives us an objective way to compare how a subject did on the worksample with how other people have done. If the subject scored high in an ability as compared to other people, you can infer that this is a strong ability for them. Remember that it is not important to have high scores on every worksample; rather, it is important to know and understand what each of the scores means for an individual. Everyone has a pattern of abilities, with some strong abilities and some weak
abilities. The measure of the abilities' impact on a subject is the own pattern of
strong and weak abilities. There are no "good" patterns or "bad" patterns. Every
pattern means that some things will be easy for them to do or learn, others more
difficult. In using this information, it's important to move toward roles that
capitalize on the strengths.
