Abstract:

This study relates AFQT and Aptitude Composite scores to measure of performance in training and on the job. The utility of current performance measures is evaluated. Alternate measures, which are available but not currently utilized, are identified and assessed. In addition, experimental performance measures were developed and tried out to determine their potential as performance measures. The relationship between experimental measures and AFQT ASVAB was then determined. Finally, recommendations are made 1 regarding the use andor improvement of current training and job performance measures and 2 concerning the potential of alternate experimental performance measures as criteria against which AFQTASVAB can be validated.
