AN INVESTIGATION OF THE FEASIBILITY OF NAVY AVIATION STRUCTURAL MECHANIC S (STRUCTURES) TRAINING FOR GROUP IV PERSONNEL.
Abstract
The purposes of this research investigation were to determine the appropriateness of current Aviation Structural Mechanic S (Structures) School, Class A, training for Mental Group IV personnel. This training consists of a sequency of three courses. It was found that 50% of the Group IV students would have been dropped from training prior to the completion of the sequency while the normal attrition rate does not exceed 1% in any of the three courses. The Group IV students had their greatest difficulties with relatively abstract materials in the area of mathematics and physics. On performance tests and shop projects their work was on a par with that of the regular students. The current training sequency does not seem to be suitable for use with Group IV students. (Author)
