reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1230727 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Scores from the tests in the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) are used to classify Navy Sailors into occupations, or ratings. Test classification composites for each rating are re-evaluated periodically, and a recent study was undertaken to do a re-evaluation for the Aviation Maintenance Administrationman (AZ) rating as the training changed in 2021. Because of unique aspects of the AZ training, it was determined during this study that normal methods of validation of classification tests were not possible. This report describes initial findings as well as decisions made that continued the use of the existing AZ classification test composite.
