How do you score a correct answer in Raven Standard Progressive Matrices?

In Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices (SPM), you score a correct answer by selecting the item that completes the pattern or analogy presented in the matrix. There's no partial credit. It's either right or wrong.

The matrix presents a series of figures with a systematic relationship. You must identify the underlying rule or principle governing the changes between the figures and then apply that rule to choose the missing figure from the options provided. Choosing the option that logically completes the pattern earns you one point. Incorrect selections receive no points.
