Book excerpt: "To develop for use in classifying enlisted men to the combat arms new aptitude areas incorporating measures of what the combat man will do as well as what he can do ... A long term program of research involved the experimental testing of approximately 5000 enlisted combat arms personnel-- about 2000 in actual combat, 1000 in Arctic maneuvers, and 2000 in both a training and a later overseas garrison-maneuvers situation"--Preliminary page.

This book was released on 1969 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matching the abilities of men entering the Army to the demands of training courses and jobs is an ever-critical problem facing Army personnel management. Aptitude area composites have been developed to measure the potential of the men, and the scores from these composites are used in making decisions about the men's assignments. The productivity of the men in their training and job assignments can be enhanced by obtaining more accurate assessments of their potential to perform in the different job categories. Based on a longitudinal study of the effectiveness of the Army classification battery (ACB) tests in predicting training success in military occupational specialty (MOS) courses, an improved set of aptitude area composites has now been developed. These composites and the benefits that would derive from their use are described in the present report.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One objective of the FUTURE COMBAT Task, USAPRO is to develop a system of enlisted personnel allocation to maximize individual skills and preferences and at the same time meet Army staffing requirements. After determination that quality of manpower in the combat arms was perceptibly below that in the rest of the Army, computer based plans for allocating basic combat trainees to advanced training were developed and implemented experimentally on a trainee sample. The selection and testing of different allocation techniques, the mathematical bases for selected computerized systems, and results of comparison of three systems are reported. Two alternate plans, one of which takes into account individual training preference, proved more effective than the current procedure and were provided the Data Services and Administrative Systems Command.
Download or read book Research to Improve Enlisted Classification Techniques written by William H. Helme and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research responsive to the Army requirement for maintenance and continued development of the aptitude area system of differential classification of enlisted men is reviewed. Research effort of the NEW CLASSIFICATION TECHNIQUES Task has been devoted substantially to improved measures for the Army Classification Battery (ACB) and identification of combinations of tests which are the most effective differential predictors of success in occupational areas and subareas. Additional Task objectives encompass (1) identifying potential career enlisted men; (2) screening and assignment of enlisted men of relatively low ability, (3) developing physical proficiency measures to classify EM for combat and combat-support MOS with unusual physical demands. New Classification tests developed and ready for comprehensive evaluation as potential components of the ACB include: aptitude and ability tests for Electronics, General Maintenance, Motor Maintenance, and Clerical job areas; three information tests for Construction and Mechanical-Electrical jobs; and personality-interest measures.

Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to furnish infantry, artillery, armor, and combat engineer research information for use in selecting new combat arms aptitude areas based upon the validity of ACB [Army Classification Battery] tests and a group of experimental predictors. Testing was accomplished in the 10th Infantry Division at the start of the training cycle for 1642 enlisted men later trained in combat arms military occupational specialties. Criterion ratings of estimated combat potential were collected after overseas maneuvers, one year after testing"--Preliminary page.
