About the Divergent Association Task (DAT)

A concise introduction — more details coming soon.

What It Measures

The DAT is a short, science‑based assessment of divergent thinking. You enter seven common English nouns. Our AI computes the semantic distance among them and summarizes your creative potential as a single score.

How It Works

Type seven nouns that are broadly unrelated to each other (avoid obvious themes). Larger average distances between words generally indicate stronger divergent thinking. Results include your score and a percentile estimate.

Tips

  • Mix domains: nature, technology, food, places, abstract concepts.
  • Avoid variants or near‑synonyms of earlier words.
  • Prefer concrete, common nouns in singular form.
