APTITUDE SELECTION STANDARDS FOR THE U. S. NAVY'S FIRST CLASS DIVING COURSE,

Abstract

A correlational analysis of 137 records of recent graduates and failures of the First Class Diver's Course was performed to determine what tests within the Navy's basic test battery--GCT, MECH, ARI, and CLER--could best be utilized as predictors of training success. As determined by a multiple correlation value of .428, the combination of ARI and MECH provided the best results. A combined cur-off score of 80 on these tests was suggested as a requirement for entrance in the First Class Diver's Course. (Author)
