Procedures used to determine a person’s abilities are:

Maximum performance tests are procedures used to determine a person's abilities, knowledge, or skills. These tests, such as achievement tests or aptitude tests, are designed to elicit the best possible performance from an individual, showing what they *can do*.

• Typical performance tests, like personality inventories or attitude scales, assess what an individual *will do* or usually does, reflecting their preferences or usual behavior, not their maximum ability.
• Norm-referenced tests compare an individual's performance to a norm group, while criterion-referenced tests compare performance to a set standard; both can be types of maximum or typical performance tests, but they describe the interpretation method, not the type of performance measured.
