DEVELOPMENT OF A NON-COGNITIVE BATTERY: PREDICTION OF PERFORMANCE ABOARD NUCLEAR POWERED SUBMARINES

Abstract

A battery of non-cognitive tests was used in an attempt to predict duty performance evaluations aboard nuclear powered submarines. These tests distinguished men categorized as Below Average from men categorized as Average. Best predictions were of evaluations of technical performance. Academic grades at Basic Nuclear Power School were also highly predictive of sub quent performance evaluations aboard a nuclear powered submarine. (Author)
