Answer:
The Five Types of MAT Analogical Relationships
The key to success in analyzing any MAT analogy is to recognize the key relationship that makes one pair of terms analogous to the other pair. The test designers group MAT relationships into various types. According to the MAT designers, each MAT question falls into one of five broad categories, based on the relationship type that is key to completing the analogy:
.Semantic — similarity or difference in meaning (synonym, antonym, intensity or degree, definition) or proper word usage
.Classification — category/subcategory, member/group, part/whole, etc.
.Association — object/characteristic, cause and effect, function or purpose, sequential order, etc.
.Mathematical — equality, inequality, proportion (ratio, fraction, percent), etc.
.Logical (non-semantic) — letter patterns, phonetics
