DEVELOPMENT OF AN ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC TEST BATTERY,

Abstract

The report describes the operation and results of an experimental test development approach in the electrical/ electronics occupational area. Concurrent with construction of an Electrical-Electronic Test Battery, the use of a 'Job Element' as a unit for test development puropses was examined. The results of administering the battery to a sample of Air Force civilian employees in the electronics and related job series demonstrated effectiveness of the job element sub-tests in discriminating between various electronic specialities. The final battery is recommended throughout the Air Force as a selection instrument. The job element approach to job knowledge test construction is endorsed as the most practical means of constructing future Air Force tests in the Wage Board area. (Author)
