reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1206978 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is used by the Navy to classify Sailors into occupations, or ratings. Periodically, the classification standards in use are re-evaluated for validity, to ensure that the standards are most likely to lead to "A" School success and thereby success in the rating. Training data for the Aviation Ordnanceman rating were evaluated to determine which composite of ASVAB test scores would be most valid for predicting training success. The data analyzed, the processes used to determine the most valid composites, and the final decision of the ASVAB Validation Review Committee are included in this report. Ultimately, the AO composites were not changed.
