Book Improving the Selection  Classification  and Utilization of Army Enlisted Personnel  Annual Report  1987 Fiscal Year

Download or read book Improving the Selection Classification and Utilization of Army Enlisted Personnel Annual Report 1987 Fiscal Year written by John P. Campbell and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes research during the fifth year (FY87) of Project A, the Army's long-term program to develop a complete system for selecting and classifying entry-level enlisted personnel. During the fifth year, data obtained from administering experimental predictor and criterion measures to 9,500 soldiers in the project's concurrent validation stage was used to consider alternatives to the current Aptitude Area composites, evaluate methods for weighting criterion components in a composite index, and estimate the utility of various MOS/performance level combinations. Job analysis of second- tour performance was begun in preparation for future second-tour testing. Beginning the longitudinal validation stage, predictor tests were administered to approximately 48,000 1986/87 accessions in 21 MOS; samples from each MOS will subsequently be tested on first-tour and second-tour performance. This report is supplemented by a U.S. Army Research Institute Research Note (in preparation), which contains technical papers prepared during the year on specialized aspects of the project. Keywords: Aptitude areas; Army-wide measures; Criterion measures; First-tour evaluation; Longitudinal validation; MOS utility; Performance utility; Personnel classification; Personnel selection; Predictor measures; Project A; Rating scales; Second-tour evaluation; Soldier effectiveness; Weighting criteria.

Book Improving the Selection  Classification  and Utilization of Army Enlisted Personnel  Technical Appendix to the Annual Report

Book excerpt: This research note describes in detail research performed during the first year of a project to develop a complete personnel system for selecting and classifying all entry level enlisted personnel. Its purpose is to document, in the context of the annual report, a variety of technical papers associated with the project. In general, the first year's activities have been taken up by an intensive period of detailed planning, briefing advisory groups, preparing initial troop requests, and beginning comprehensive predictor and criterion development that will be the basis for later validation work. Research reports associated with the work reported are included. (Author).

This book was released on 1983 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research report describes a research plan for a project whose objectives are to: (1) validate current and future ASVAB against soldier performance; (2) develop new selection and classification procedures and measures to optimize the match between soldier abilities and MOS requirements; and (3) develop computer-based decision-aids for managers of the Army's manpower processes. The objectives of the research will be met by: (1) developing new ways to measure and collect data on the military applicant pool; (2) developing and evaluating new predictors of soldier performance (e.g., psychomotor, perceptual, cognitive abilities, and biographical information); (3) developing new methods to measure and analyze training performance; and (4) developing and refining adequate, efficient soldier performance measures and predictors of enlisted personnel and NCO success.

Book Modeling Cost and Performance for Military Enlistment

Download or read book Modeling Cost and Performance for Military Enlistment written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1994-02-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a cost/performance trade-off model useful for illustrating the effects of budget decisions on the quality of expected performance in the military enlisted force. The model links recruit quality to job performance on the one hand and personnel costs on the other. Understanding these linkages provides a clear rationale, based on performance and cost differences, for choosing applicants for military service. The book examines trends in the quality of military personnel from the beginning of the All-Volunteer Force in 1974 to the year 2000 and beyond. It discusses technical issues associated with the development of the various components of both cost and performance linkages and presents applications of the fully developed model.

Book Applied Measurement

Download or read book Applied Measurement written by Deborah L. Whetzel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An updated version of Deborah Whetzel and George Wheaton's earlier volume, this text is a well-organized sourcebook for fundamental practices in industrial psychology and human resources management. Applied Measurement describes the process of job analysis and test development with practical examples and discusses various methods for measuring job performance. Its primary purpose is to provide practical, systematic guidance on how to develop the various kinds of measurement instruments frequently used in the fields of industrial psychology and human resources management to assess personnel. With easy to follow guidance written in straightforward language, Applied Measurement contains three new chapters focusing on training and experience measures, assessment centers, and methods for defending the content validity of tests; includes contributions from many prominent researchers in the field, all of whom have had a great deal of applied experience; begins each chapter with an overview describing the job analysis or measurement method; and uses one job, that of an electrician, as an example throughout the book so that readers can easily understand how to apply job analysis data for the purposes of test development and job performance measurement. This practical, concise book is recommended for students and entry-level practitioners in the fields of industrial psychology and human resources.
