Hogan Business Reasoning Inventory - SCALES AND INTERPRETATIONS

The Hogan Business Reasoning Inventory evaluates two kinds of problem solving, called tactical and strategic reasoning. It evaluates these two kinds of reasoning using basic business data presented in the form of textual, quantitative, and graphic items.

Tactical Reasoning
Concerns solving problems and coming to sensible conclusions once the facts are known. High scorers tend to be disciplined, steady, and precise.

Strategic Reasoning
Concerns the ability to detect errors, gaps, and logical flaws in graphs, memos, diagrams, written reports, numerical projections, and tables of data. High scorers are seen as curious and open-minded, tolerant of ambiguity, and interested in feedback.
