The Camel and Cactus Test (CCT) was designed as a way to assess semantic knowledge (Bozeat et al, 2000). The task involves asking people to match a picture (or word) with a matching picture (or word) from a choice of four by their semantic association e.g. matching ‘camel’ with ‘cactus’ rather than ‘tree’, ‘sunflower’ or ‘rose’. It was an extension of the Pyramids and Palm Trees Test (Howard et al, 1992) in which people were asked to choose from only two pictures (or words); the CCT, with 64 items in total, was therefore expected to be more sensitive than its predecessor.
