Minuteman Personnel Selection Study
Abstract
The report deals with the selection of personnel for assignment as Minuteman Missile Combat Crew Members. The data evaluated consists of biographical data, Officer Efficiency Reports, and Air Training Command Standard Scores obtained on individuals during individual missile training. Two predictors of performance were isolated using a multiple regression technique, which incorporated the use of dummy variables. The importance of this study, however, is not limited only to those variable found to be significant. In fact, an example cited in the study indicates that certain variables which are not predictive of success could have an equally important managerial implication. It is recommended that future research be undertaken to evaluate ORT scores, AFOQT scores, and other pre-service variables such as Grade Point Average as possible predictors.
