Personnel Performance & Training

Abstract

This Project matures and validates applied behavioral and social science technologies that enhance the Soldier Lifecycle (e.g., selection, assignment, training, leader development) and human relations (e.g., unit cohesion). These technologies provide advanced personnel measures that more fully assess potential and predict performance, behavior, attitudes, and resilience. These technologies also provide innovative and effective Talent Management methods to optimize individual and team performance to ensure the Army can meet mission requirements in uncertain and complex environments. This Project evaluates new selection measures, assignment methods, and performance metrics for individuals and units, assesses innovative training methods, and conducts scientific assessments to inform Human Capital policy and programs. Work in this Project will result in effective non-materiel solutions to help the Army adjust to changes in force size and structure, a variety of mission demands and contexts, challenges in human relations, and budgetary constraints. Efforts in this Project support the Army Science and Technology Soldier portfolio. Work in this Project complements and is fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0602785A (Manpower/Personnel/Training Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Science and Technology priorities of the Army Chief of Staff, the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology priority focus areas, and the Army Human Capital Strategy.
