      ab: The Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices (RAPM) is considered as one of the most successful measure of general intelligence, particularly the problem-solving and reasoning abilities. However, despite of this, there is no attempt to assess its psychometric properties in Malaysia. To bridge this shortage, the present study assessed the psychometric properties of the 23-item RAPM using a sample of 1,793 Malaysian youth. The assessment involved Rasch Model analysis measurement framework using the following criteria: model assumptions, reliability, construct validity evidence, differential item functioning (DIF), and test targeting. The results showed satisfactory findings from the data for most of the criteria, especially the reliability and validity evidence. Nevertheless, the items in the RAPM was found to lack the ability to target the respondents' general intelligence in the measured scale.
