Qualitative Accession Requirements. (A Report on the Qualitative Accession Needs of the Military Services)
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the qualitative accession needs (male and female, non-prior service) of the Services in terms of mental ability as measured by scores on aptitude tests and the Armed Forces Qualification Test for FY 1973, FY 1974, and beyond to the extent practicable and to compare these quality requirements with the estimated supply of personnel by mental ability. In addition, the study considered the feasibility of using supplementary measures of quality. The study is subdivided into four main sub- tasks. The first determined the minimum qualitative needs for new accessions. The second estimated the recruiting capability by mental category for each Service. The third sub-task evaluated the shortages and overages by mental category and by Service. The fourth evaluated the feasibility of using alternative measures of quality for selection of military personnel. (Author)
