PREDICTION OF OCS GRADES AND FITNESS REPORT MARKS

Abstract

The report describes research designed to improve two personnel decisions which the Navy must make relative to the input and output of Officer Candidate School (OCS). The first decision considers all relevant applications data in deciding which men to accept and which to reject for entry into OCS. The second decision is made to determine the best assignment for each man OCS graduates. Previously gathered research data were reanalyzed to permit evaluation of the validity of various combinations of OCS selection information. The purpose of the analysis was to improve prediction of future performance both at the time of selection to OCS and at the time of graduation. Multiple regression statistical procedures were used for the analyses.
