Talk:Tower of London test

Suggestion
Thank you for explaining the main concept of the Tower of London test. Could you please add a few examples of the tasks the examinee may face? Thank you very much in advance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.108.109.102 (talk) 13:35, 29 November 2007 (UTC)


 * It's not very complicated and works sort of like a game. You're given what amounts to a child's toy with a handful of colored beads on posts -- maybe a red and blue bead on the first post, nothing on the second, and a yellow bead on the third.  You are given a new pattern -- maybe red on the first post, yellow on the next post, and blue on the last post.  You can only move one bead at a time, and you can't take any beads off the "board" (say, to hold one in your hand while you move another).  How many "moves" does it take you to arrange the beads in the correct order?  You might also be asked simple questions, like how many beads of a certain color (or combination of colors) are on the posts.  It's similar to, but easier than, this game.

 * I had the same question, seems like a description of how the task(s) work is in order for the article itself. The Towers of Hanoi article goes into *great* detail about how the game works and multiple strategies for solving it. Critterkeeper (talk) 01:26, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

Scoring
How is it scored? Speed of execution of number of moves needed? Prevalence 01:06, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
