The newest research would suggest that unless you are completing a spatial task this type of reasoning is not as related to math as once thought. For lower level math, or arithmetic, working memory is generally more important. For higher order math fluid reasoning is typically the most important skill. Look at the matrix reasoning subtest as it is a measure of fluid reasoning (unless your child was given a WISC 5, then there will be a fluid reasoning composite).
