Army Personnel Tests and Measurement

Abstract

The purpose of this manual is to provide an understanding of how the Army applies personnel psychology and statistics to its personnel problems. This manual is addressed to two audiences. The first is composed of those officer and enlisted personnel whose assignments entail responsibility for using personnel measurement techniques and procedures or for instructing others in their use, either in schools or on the job. The second audience consists of officer and enlisted personnel interested in gaining a better understanding of technical aspects of personnel management. Technical content of the manual is treated in the light of practical military personnel problems. The solutions to these problems are difficult; therefore, considerable study and thought will be required of the reader. So far as possible, technical terms have been avoided, but where such terms are used, their meanings are explained.
