Data Collection on Category IV Enlistee Sample for ACB-2 Longitudinal Study.

Abstract

The present memorandum describes procedures used to obtain initial and follow-up data on the Category 4 ENLISTee sample screened under the ACB-2 program in August-December 1958. Included in the follow-up was an additional sample of enlisted men selected from the same units as the Category 4 ENLISTEE sample. These men were select to serve as controls in subsequent analyses. Data collected will be analyzed to determine the general screening value (prediction across MOS) and classification value (differential prediction) of three types of variables: (1) experimental test variables incorporated in the Classification Inventory, EC-4R which was specifically constructed for screening Category 4 EM; (2) background variables such as years of education and socioeconomic status; and (3) AFQT-ACB composites including the ACB-2 prerequisite currently used in screening inductees (two or more Aptitude Area scores of 90 or above along with a qualifying percentile score of 10 on AFQT).
