Book Description
A study of U.S. Navy officer students who were registered at the Operations Research/System Analyses curriculum at the NPS in spring 1974 was conducted using biographical data, the Strong Vocational Interest Blank and the Graduate Record Examination to develop an equation predicting academic performance of U.S. Navy officer students. Several prediction equations were derived using a development sample and then cross-validated using a hold-out sample; the results were statistically significant. Four of the prediction equations derived were selected to be further analyzed to obtain regression coefficients using the Jackknife procedure. No significant differences were found between the results obtained using the Stepwise Regression procedure and the Jackknife proceudre.

Book Description
Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for lnformation and Numerica/ Data Analysis and Synthesis (C/NDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficia! to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After fi ve years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of ali concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and App/ied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. Ali back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 21 (thesis year 1976) a total of 10,586 theses titles from 25 Canadian and 219 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work.

Book Description
The ability to forecast the academic performance of Naval Officer students in the Operations Analysis curriculum is an issue of importance to the Navy. In the interest of cost effectiveness and achieving the required numbers of operations analysis graduates, this thesis studies the present student selection factors for the OA curriculum and suggests several alternative factors to improve the selection decision. An analysis of variance approach was taken to explore the relationship of the student's academic profile code and several other variables to determine their importance in explaining the OA student's academic performance. A study of 159 OA Navy OA students was completed. The analysis showed the student's overall total college grade point average, the time from completion of college to commencement of work in the OA curriculum (in fact performance does not decrease over time), the student's designator and his college degree to be the most important factors on explaining the variability of student performance.
