Interrupted Timed Sections
Interrupted timed subtests should be flagged for practitioner review rather than silently resumed as normal.
Comparison Limits
Aptitude scores can support comparison only against supported job or training references available to the implementation.
What does GATB produce?
It produces a multi-domain aptitude score profile based on timed subtest performance and supported scoring materials.
Is this an interest inventory?
No. GATB is a multi-aptitude battery, not a vocational interest inventory or job search tool.
Can the demo invent scoring norms?
No. Scoring norms, timing rules, and occupational comparison meanings must come from supported materials.
What happens if a subtest is missing?
The affected domain should be marked incomplete and unsupported full-profile interpretation should be prevented.
