Aptitude and Attitude
For quite a long time now a conflict has been brewing between aptitude and attitude. Which one of the two is more important? Although it has been seen that attitude (and other similar traits) play a large part in the success of a person, the fact remains that it is difficult to measure and analyse that part of the personality. On the other hand, the aptitude of a person can be measured quite easily and accurately.
Aptitude is defined as a natural ability, tendency, talent or capability to learn, understand or acquire a particular skill. An aptitude test [http://www.rogersgroup.com.au] is any examination that attempts to determine and measure a person's ability to acquire, through future training, some specific set of skills (intellectual, motor and so on). The tests assume that people differ in their special abilities and these differences can be useful in predicting future achievements. The various traits that are measured include abstract reasoning, general mental ability, integrity, numerical reasoning and verbal reasoning.
