Review of Situational Judgment Test (SJT) Prototype Development Process and Materials

Abstract

The U.S. Air Force (USAF) is exploring the use of a situational judgment test (SJT) as a potential augmentation to the Weighted Airman Promotion System (WAPS). SJTs are frequently used to assess complex relational skills, such as interpersonal skills and leadership (e.g., Christian, Edwards, and Bradley, 2010). The Air Force Personnel Center Strategic Research and Assessment Branch (AFPC/DSYX) developed a prototype SJT for use with E-7 (master sergeant) candidates to assess People/Team Competencies listed in Air Force Doctrine Annex 1-1, Force Development (AFPD 36-26; U.S. Air Force, 2015).
