Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT) Form T Evaluation: Subtest-Level Analyses

Abstract

The Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT) is used to qualify applicants for officer commissioning and for aircrew training as pilots, combat system officers, air battle managers, and remotely-piloted aircraft pilots. The purpose of this report is to summarize psychometric evaluation of the AFOQT Form T at the subtest level. Data consisted of responses from United States Air Force officer applicants who were administered either AFOQT Form T1 or Form T2 between 2014 and 2020. Overall, the subtest-level results were consistent with previous research in terms of psychometric properties (Morath et al., 2008; Carretta et al., 2016; Aguilar, 2017). However, there were areas where improvements could be made.
