Improving the Selection Classification, and Utilization of Army Enlisted Personnel: Annual Report, 1986 Fiscal Year

Abstract

This report describes the research performed during the 4th year (FY86) of Project A, the Army's long-term program to develop a complete system for selecting and classifying all entry-level enlisted personnel. During the 4th year, the wide variety of predictor and criterion measures that had been developed and field tested during the first 3 years were administered to 9,500 soldiers in the Concurrent Validation phase of the project. This report describes the data collection and analysis for this phase, which is being followed by a Longitudinal Validation phase in which approximately 50,000 soldiers in 21 Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) will be tested on entry into the Army and during subsequent first-tour job performance. This report is supplemented by an ARI Research Note (in preparation), which contains a number of technical papers prepared during the year on specialized aspects of the project.
