Validation of a proposed pilot-trainee selection system.

Abstract

The use of an Aircrew Psychomotor Test Device and the Air Force Officer Qualifying Test have been proposed for the selection of U.S. Air Force pilot training candidates. Random samples of the U.S. Air Force Academy's class of 1978 and the class of 1979 were given the proposed tests and followed through undergraduate pilot training. The results cast serious doubt as to the utility of these tests in selecting U.S. Air Force Academy cadets for pilot training.
