Development of ASVAB Norms for the Student Testing Program

Abstract

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is administered in high schools and postsecondary schools as part of the Defense Department's Student Testing Program. Norms for 11th and higher grades are based on a national sample tested in 1980 as part of the Profile of American Youth (PAY) study. Tenth grade norms use, in addition, a nonrandom sample collected in 1984 by the Military Entrance Processing Command (MEPCOM). With the introduction of Forms 18 and 19, scores will be reported on three composites and ten subtests. The objective of this research memorandum is to present norms for these scores.
