This paper reports the psychometric properties of the Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices (APM) among a Libyan student sample from Misurata. The study sample consisted of 400 participants (171 males, 229 females), their age ranged from 12 to 17 years (M = 14.31, SD =1.17). The results showed that item difficulty indices on set II ranged from 10% to 100% (M = 68.56%) and all of them needed to be rearranged according to their difficulty index, and that discrimination indices ranged from .02 to .56 (M = .22). The construct and Criterion validity of APM were confirmed; Moreover, test-retest reliability and Cronbach's alpha reliability values of the APM test were strong. The results were discussed in the light of the related literature
