Pers Perf & Training
Abstract
This project provides the funding to develop innovative theories, models, and methods to improve personnel assessment, training, and leader development, as well as provide a better understanding of individual, unit, and organizational behavior and performance within the context of complex organizational and operational environments. The research within these domains will enable advances in psychometrics to support the development of the next generation of psychological assessments for selection, classification, and assignment. The research also will target how to improve the assessment of difficult-to-measure skills and enable theoretical advances to inform and support the accelerated development of complex cognitive and social skills. This research lays the foundation for future applications that address the behavioral and organizational dynamics that impact Army flexibility, effectiveness, and resilience. Work in this project complements and is fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0602785A (Project 790) and PE 0603007A (Project 792). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Research and Engineering Science and Technology focus areas and the Army Human Capital Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences (ARI), Ft. Belvoir, VA.
