The paper focuses on a test of basic cognitive abilities implemented in the panel survey of the second TREE cohort (TREE2). The inclusion of the test in the TREE2 panel survey provides a database allowing to investigate a wide range of interdependencies between different abilities (mathematics skills, basic cognitive abilities and reading speed). The test relies on the "Kognitiver Fähigkeitstest" (KFT) as developed by Heller & Perleth (2000). TREE has adapted the KFT's N2 subtest on figural analogies to web-administration and translated the test instructions to French and Italian. The paper further informs on conceptional considerations, on details of the adaptations that TREE applied to Heller and Perleth’s original test as well as on test validity and functionality.
