Book Effect of Degree of Familiarity in Job Evaluation

Download or read book Effect of Degree of Familiarity in Job Evaluation written by Raymond E. Christal and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant association between the familiarity of the rater with a job and the ratings he assigns to the job was found for 17 of 50 Air Force specialties. Assuming that the most valid ratings are those given by highly familiar raters, it appears that highly technical jobs tend to be under-evaluated by raters who are unfamiliar with the work performed. On the other hand, some jobs ten to be over-evaluated by raters who are unfamiliar with the work performed. These findings point to the necessity for controlling the level of familiarity when job evaluation is conducted.

Book Appraisal of Educational Requirements for Airman Specialties

Download or read book Appraisal of Educational Requirements for Airman Specialties written by Chester J. Judy and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educational requirements for airman specialties are given in Air Force Manual 35-1. This study examines the role of some of these gross indicators of academic achievement in predicting technical school grades. Attention was restricted to the educational information shown on testing and assignment record cards completed for a sample of airmen in 13 Air Force specialties. By linear regression techniques it was found that the joint contribution of this limited amount of information permits the prediction of a large part of the variance in technical school grades. High school graduation was the best single predictor among the educational variables. Completion or noncompletion of particular high-school-level courses, although individually and generally predictive of the criterion measures, consistently did not reach a level of practical significance for any specialty when the effects of other information were controlled. Further validation of educational requirements for Air Force specialties should start with better basic information on academic achievement.

Book Final United States Air Force F 35A Operational Beddown Air National Guard Environmental Impact Statement

Download or read book Final United States Air Force F 35A Operational Beddown Air National Guard Environmental Impact Statement written by and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) analyzes the potential environmental impacts associated with the United States (U.S.) Air Force (USAF) proposed beddown of F-35A aircraft at two of five alternative Air National Guard (ANG) locations. The F-35A would replace the existing F-15, F-16, or A-10 fighter attack aircraft at the two selected installations. This action would involve the beddown of one F-35A squadron consisting of 18 Primary Aircraft Authorized (PAA) with2 Backup Aircraft Inventory(BAI) at each of the two selected locations, thereby establishing two F-35A operational locations. Five alternative ANG locations (Figure ES-1) are being considered for this beddown: [1] 115th Fighter Wing (115 FW) at Dane County Regional Airport, Madison, Wisconsin, [2] 124th Fighter Wing (124 FW) at Boise Air Terminal (Boise Airport), Boise, Idaho, [3] 125th Fighter Wing (125 FW) at Jacksonville International Airport (IAP), Jacksonville, Florida, [4] 127th Wing (127 WG) at Selfridge Air National Guard Base (ANGB), Michigan, [5] 187th Fighter Wing (187 FW) at Montgomery Regional Airport, Montgomery, Alabama The ANG has both federal and state missions. These dual missions result in each guardsman holding membership in the National Guard of his or her state as part of the ANG unit acting in the capacity of a Reserve Component of the USAF. The ANG's federal mission is to maintain well-trained, well-equipped units available for prompt mobilization during wartime and to provide assistance during national emergencies (such as natural disasters or civil disturbances). During peacetime, the combat-ready units and their support units are assigned to most USAF major commands (MAJCOMs) to carry out missions compatible with training, mobilization readiness, humanitarian and contingency operations. Each of the five alternative ANG F-35A beddown locations evaluated in this EIS have a fighter mission that is assigned to the USAF Air Combat Command (ACC) MAJCOM for their federal missions, and as such they implement a training syllabus associated with ACC"--From executive summary.

Download or read book Reliability Growth written by Panel on Reliability Growth Methods for Defense Systems and published by National Academy Press. This book was released on 2015-03-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high percentage of defense systems fail to meet their reliability requirements. This is a serious problem for the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), as well as the nation. Those systems are not only less likely to successfully carry out their intended missions, but they also could endanger the lives of the operators. Furthermore, reliability failures discovered after deployment can result in costly and strategic delays and the need for expensive redesign, which often limits the tactical situations in which the system can be used. Finally, systems that fail to meet their reliability requirements are much more likely to need additional scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and to need more spare parts and possibly replacement systems, all of which can substantially increase the life-cycle costs of a system. Beginning in 2008, DOD undertook a concerted effort to raise the priority of reliability through greater use of design for reliability techniques, reliability growth testing, and formal reliability growth modeling, by both the contractors and DOD units. To this end, handbooks, guidances, and formal memoranda were revised or newly issued to reduce the frequency of reliability deficiencies for defense systems in operational testing and the effects of those deficiencies. "Reliability Growth" evaluates these recent changes and, more generally, assesses how current DOD principles and practices could be modified to increase the likelihood that defense systems will satisfy their reliability requirements. This report examines changes to the reliability requirements for proposed systems; defines modern design and testing for reliability; discusses the contractor's role in reliability testing; and summarizes the current state of formal reliability growth modeling. The recommendations of "Reliability Growth" will improve the reliability of defense systems and protect the health of the valuable personnel who operate them.
