Book Description
This report describes a follow-up research effort designed to examine the predictive utility of selected measures of intelligence (Wonderlic Personnel Test - WPT), personality (Jackson Personality Inventory - JPI), and biographical information in predicting the successful completion of Phase I of the Special Forces Qualification course (SFQC). Intelligence, personality, and biographical measures were obtained from 293 soldiers attending Phase I of the SFQC at Fort Bragg, NC. The relationships between two of the selected predictor measures, WPT, and JPI and the Phase I performance criteria were assessed through a correlation-multiple regression strategy. Predictive utility was assessed using a discriminant analysis procedure. Intelligence (WPI) correlated significantly with overall Phase I status and four JIP scales: Energy Level, Anxiety, Risk Taking and Infrequency. The results further suggested that SF candidates who have had prior specialized training emphasizing land navigation, map reading, and patrolling (e.g., Ranger, Reconnaissance, Jungle Warfare) are likely to be much better prepared to complete Phase I successfully than those candidates who have not had such training.

Book Description
"The purpose of this project was to develop an agenda for Special Forces (SF) selection and classification research. Job analysis data, interviews, field observation, and expert judgments about the quality of measures formed the foundation for the Roadmap. The resulting Roadmap is composed of eight projects. Projects 1 and 2, Concurrent Criterion-Related Validation of Readily Available Predictor Measures Against on the Job Performance and Development and Implementation of Content Valid Job Sample Tests, supplement SF selection and classification with measures of leadership, temperament, and communication and analytic skills that could be implemented quickly. Project 3, Validation of Measures of Conventional Army Task Proficiency, Experience and Preference Against Training Performance, addresses the fit between individuals and SF Jobs. Project 4, Validation of Training Performance Against on the Job Performance, would evaluate the usefulness of training data for predicting job performance. Project 5, Predictive Validation of All Predictors Against on the Job Performance, the ultimate test of any selection system, requires maintaining databases for validation purposes. Projects 6-8 involve the development of information to facilitate decision making at the U.S. Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School. The are: Development of a Selection and Training Decision Simulator (Project 6), Review of New Measures of Leader Problem Solving Performance (Project 7), and Training Performance Study (Project 8)."--DTIC.
