The aim of this paper was to test for measurement bias, due to cognitive interference, on cognitive ability tests, using a structural equation modeling technique. The sample consisted of 231 undergraduate students, who were examined with three tests addressed to numerical ability, space visualization and inductive ability, respectively. They were also asked to respond to the Cognitive

In comparing two nested models, one hypothesizing measurement bias due to cognitive interference and one not, results show that the test tapping inductive ability displays measurement bias due to cognitive interference.
