Book excerpt: Screening and initial assignment of non-prior-service enlistees in the United States Air Force is based primarily on relative standing on any one of four aptitude composites, each derived by a simple summation of scores on certain subtests of the Airman Qualifying Examination (AQE). The present report describes a study designed to determine the increase in validity for prediction of performance in technical training courses which might be obtained by the use of (a) aptitude composites derived from optimally weighted subtests along with additional information, or (b) separate aptitude composites derived for each technical course, or (c) separate aptitude composites derived for enlistees from different geographical areas, or (d) various combinations of these variables. Data from 46,000 enlistees and 88 technical courses were analyzed. It was concluded that both the addition of information to the aptitude composites and the utilization of separate composites for each technical course would significantly increase the validity of the selection and classification system.

Download or read book AIRMAN QUALIFYING EXAMINATION 66 ADMINISTERED AS A CONFIDENCE TEST written by and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Airman Qualifying Examination-66 was readministered as a Valid Confidence test to 61 basic airmen. Airmen understood the method of confidence testing and yielded data containing information over and above that available from choice testing. There is no evidence that confidence testing disrupted the test-taking process. Wide individual differences were observed in airmen's ability to evaluate information. Observed patterns of confidence indicate that airmen would be guessing on about one-fourth of the items if AQE-66 had been administered as a choice test. Confidence test administration served to increase reliability of AQE-66 to the extent that it was equivalent to a choice test about twice as long as the current test. Confidence test administration served to increase predictive validity of AQE-66 as measured by the correlation between AQE-66 and AFQT.
Download or read book Equivalence of Scores from Three Airman Classification Devices written by William B. Lecznar and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Airman Classification Battery, AC-2A, and Airman Qualifying Examination, Forms D and E, were administered in various combinations to groups of examinees. Aptitude composite scores from the several samples were compared for normative purposes and to verify certain differences found in the data obtained during the development of Airman Qualifying Examination, Form E. The results indicate some isolated variations appeared and some of the deviations found during the Form E development were not replicated. The data did not suggest that AQE-E norms should be revised.
