Book Relationship Between Airman Qualifying Examination and Armed Forces Qualifying Test Norms

Download or read book Relationship Between Airman Qualifying Examination and Armed Forces Qualifying Test Norms written by Lonnie D Valentine (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relationships between armed forces qualifying test norms and airman qualifying examination norms were examined. While the norms are not in perfect agreement, the data suggest that they do not vary from each other to any sizable extent. Estimates (through Project TALENT data) of performance of 15-year-olds, 18-year-olds, and 12th graders were examined, and implications for military test norms were discussed. (Author).

Book Development of Armed Forces Qualification Test 7 and 8

Download or read book Development of Armed Forces Qualification Test 7 and 8 written by A. G. Bayroff and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Armed Forces Qualification Test, the screening test used by all the services, must provide both a measure of general military trainability and measures of specific aptitudes. Following the research design for previous forms, experimental test items in four content areas developed by the separate services were administered to 3000 Armed Forces personnel for item analysis and item selection. Final forms were then administered to standarization samples representative of the mobilization population as a basis for conversion of test scores to percentile norms. AFQT 7 and 8 correlated substantially with preceding operational forms (r = .89 - 90) and are satisfactory alternate forms for screening. Correlation of AFQT 7-8 with years of formal education (r = .53) was slightly less than for the previous forms. Because of the high degree of equivalence of the two forms (r = .94) established in samples totaling 600 cases, a single conversion table was established for AFQT 7 and 8. Based on experimentation, instructions for administering AFQT 7 and 8 have been made shorter and simpler than for previous forms, with no loss in test effectiveness. (Author).

Book Performance Changes on Military Qualification Tests During the First Term of Service

Download or read book Performance Changes on Military Qualification Tests During the First Term of Service written by William McNaught and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper briefly describes the results of a large Air Force experiment conducted during 1972-1973. This experiment analyzed the test performance of airmen after they had completed an initial term of service. Because the airmen were originally tested with the old Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) and secondly with the new ASVAB, we have a unique opportunity to compare these two tests. In these results I find little evidence of bias in the ASVAB. In addition, these results strongly suggest that the AFQT scores received by recruits at enlistment are poor indicators of their later abilities to perform their military tasks. These results do not necessarily conflict with the statements of Pirie. The current difficulties have been attributed to the ASVAB as implemented in 1976, i.e., versions 5, 6, and 7. The results presented here undoubtedly relate to an earlier version of the ASVAB.

Book Relationships Among an Individual Intelligence Test and Two Air Force Screening and Selection Tests

Download or read book Relationships Among an Individual Intelligence Test and Two Air Force Screening and Selection Tests written by and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the implementation of the all volunteer force concept, the Air Force must insure that the objectively measurable range of ability in its manpower pool is being utilized. This is especially true for minority groups who have been categorized and channeled into military career areas based upon their performance on two selection tests: the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) and the Airman Qualifying Examination (AQE). To investigate the relationship of the AFQT and AQE to the general mental ability of different racial groups of airmen, a sample of 100 black and 100 white Air Force basic trainees was administered an established test of general mental ability, the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). The verbal, performance, and full scale IQ scores of the white and black airmen were compared to their AFQT scores and their four AQE aptitude indexes. Significant differences between black and white airmen were found on the AFQT, the four AQE aptitude indexes, and the three WAIS IQs. Regression analyses demonstrated most differences to be interaction effects between race and Air Force test scores. Implications for further research into Air Force airmen selection tests were discussed.

Book Comparison of the Airman Qualifying Examination with the Differential Aptitude Tests

Download or read book Comparison of the Airman Qualifying Examination with the Differential Aptitude Tests written by Howard L. Madden and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the high school testing program of the USAF Recruiting Service, there is occasional reference to the relationship between the Airman Qualifying Examination and civilian tests. Information in this area can be useful in the hands of guidance counselors. This report contains data on the relationships between the Differential Aptitude Tests and the Airman Qualifying Examination. Tables are presented which can be used to estimate DAT scores from the AQE aptitude indexes or to estimate AQE aptitude indexes from DAT scores. It appears that the AQE and DAT measure essentially similar abilities. (Author).

Book The Air Force Officer Qualifying Test

Download or read book The Air Force Officer Qualifying Test written by Chaitra M. Hardison and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Air Force has long recognized the importance of selecting the most qualified officers possible. For more than 60 years, it has relied on the Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT) as one measure of those qualifications. A variety of concerns have been raised about whether the AFOQT is biased, too expensive, or even valid for predicting officer success. The authors conducted a literature search to answer these concerns. They conclude that the AFOQT is a good selection test that predicts important Air Force outcomes and is not biased against minorities or women. The Air Force would not benefit by replacing the AFOQT with the SAT primarily because it would still have to administer subtests that measure specific aptitudes and knowledge needed for predicting pilot and combat systems officer success. However, other valid selection tools, such as personality tests, could be used to complement the AFOQT.
