The CAS uses the PASS theory as a framework to define cognitive processes. PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, Successive) theory is based on cognitive and neurological research and the CAS can be used with special populations including persons who are learning disabled, gifted, as well as individuals with attention deficits and traumatic brain injuries. The standard battery comprises of three subtests in each of the four PASS scales and the basic battery comprises two subtests from each of the scales:
- Planning: matching numbers, planned codes, and planned connections.
- Attention: expressive attention, number detection, and receptive attention.
- Simultaneous: Nonverbal matrices, verbal-spatial relations, and figure memory.
- Successive: word series, sentence repetition, and speech rate (ages 5 – 7), or sentence questions (ages 8 – 17).
