Research effort resulted in the implementation of a number of operational measures of military trainability: successive forms of the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) and the Enlistment Screening Test (EST) and supplementary screening measures for more specific aptitudes, the Army Qualification Battery (AQB); and tests for women applicants, the Armed Forces Women's Screening Test (AFWST), Women's Enlistment Screening Test (WEST), and Women's Army Classification Battery (WACB). With the introduction of a number of new and replacement tests during FY 1962-63, task activity turned to new approaches to screening problems and to contributions of screening activities to classification and other manpower management functions. Research plans were formulated to study seasonal and regional fluctuations in AFQT score distributions, the aptitude composition of the civilian manpower pool, new approaches to the detection of deliberate failures, feasibility of shortened screening tests, and practicability of automated testing.
In response to continuing requirements of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel (DCSPER), Department of Army, the INPUT QUALITY Task directed its research efforts to developing new approaches to screening problems and to contributions of screening activities to classification and other manpower management functions. Successive forms of general military trainability measures--Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) and Enlistment Screening Test (EST)--and supplementary measures of specific aptitudes (Army Qualification Battery, AQB)--were developed and produced to aid in more effectively determining enlistment eligibility.
Research responsive to the Army requirement for maintenance and continued development of the aptitude area system of differential classification of enlisted men is reviewed. Research effort of the NEW CLASSIFICATION TECHNIQUES Task has been devoted substantially to improved measures for the Army Classification Battery (ACB) and identification of combinations of tests which are the most effective differential predictors of success in occupational areas and subareas. Additional Task objectives encompass (1) identifying potential career enlisted men; (2) screening and assignment of enlisted men of relatively low ability, (3) developing physical proficiency measures to classify EM for combat and combat-support MOS with unusual physical demands. New Classification tests developed and ready for comprehensive evaluation as potential components of the ACB include: aptitude and ability tests for Electronics, General Maintenance, Motor Maintenance, and Clerical job areas; three information tests for Construction and Mechanical-Electrical jobs; and personality-interest measures.
