Analysis and Selection of Items for Biochem and Chemical Information Tests.

Abstract

Technical information tests have been among the most effective differential predictors in the Army Classification Battery (Helme, 1960; Helme and Fitch, 1962). As part of the effort to enhance differential prediction of MOS groups, a large pool of items was constructed to measure information in biology and chemistry (Denton, 1961). These items were tried out on general enlisted input samples and on enlisted input to Army School training courses in the Chemical and Medical MOS groups in order to select the most valid items of appropriate difficulty for experimental tests of operational length. This report describes results of such initial tryout. (Author)
