• PREDICTION OF SUCCESS FROM EXAMINATION OF PERFORMANCE DURING THE TRAINING PERIOD AI翻译
  作者：SMITH, PC; GOLD, RA
  摘要：Production during early weeks of the learning period was correlated with average production after completing learning for a group of power sewing machine operators. In accordance with initial hypotheses, correlations are low during the first few weeks, rising steadily as the learning period progresses, but remaining lower than those obtained in studies using learning performance criteria rather than ultimate level of proficiency.
• THE VALUE OF THE INTERVIEW - AN ORIENTATION AND A PILOT-STUDY AI翻译
  作者：YONGE, KA
  摘要：The most valuable interview is reported to be a standardized one, designed to assess complex, dynamic constellations of traits rather than relatively isolated, static traits. A standardized preemployment interview yielding six attitude scores was given to 46 workers, and validated against supervisory ratings. It is concluded that, properly used, the interview can play a reliable part in the overall assessment of an individual''s qualities..
• DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS OF MOTION .9. COMPARISON OF VISUAL AND NONVISUAL CONTROL OF COMPONENT MOVEMENTS AI翻译
  作者：HUISKAMP, J; SMADER, RC; SMITH, KU
  摘要：Twelve Ss practiced a knob-turning control panel task while blindfolded and another 12 without blindfolds. A final set of trials was run in which the visual conditions were reversed for the Ss. Time of travel (hand movement) to reach the knobs, and time of manipulation, were recorded electronically. For both components, the non-blindfold group did better; practice did not compensate for loss of vision.
• THE EFFECT OF LACK OF INFORMATION ON THE UNDECIDED RESPONSE IN ATTITUDE SURVEYS AI翻译
  作者：DUNNETTE, MD; UPHOFF, WH; AYLWARD, M
  摘要：The undecided response in attitude inventory items may be selected because of actual neutrality, item ambiguity, lack of information, Antagonism to the test procedure, or a need to straddle. The major determiners are probably actual neutrality, fence-straddling attitudes, or lack of information.
• FACTORIAL ANALYSIS OF COMPLEX PSYCHOMOTOR PERFORMANCE AND RELATED SKILLS AI翻译
  作者：FLEISHMAN, EA; HEMPEL, WE
  摘要：A factor analysis of 23 test variables (16 apparatus psychomotor tests and 7 printed tests designed as possible substitutes for apparatus tests) and a flying training criterion is reported. 9 factors rotated to an orthogonal simple structure are described. There are certain broad group factors of psychomotor skill which may account for performance on a wide variety of different psychomotor tasks. Although some of the factors defined in psychomotor tests may also be sampled by printed tests, th...
• TRADE SCHOOL NORMS FOR SOME COMMONLY USED TESTS AI翻译
  作者：OTTERNESS, WB; PATTERSON, CH; JOHNSON, RH; PETERSON, LR
  摘要：Normative data on the AGCT, Bennett, and Revised Minnesota Paper Form Board tests are reported for 1,011 students enrolling in a large, privately endowed industrial institute. The norms are compared with those for other groups given in the manuals for the tests. Some data on test-retest reliabilities are also given. These data are part of a larger study of the prediction of success in trade school courses by means of tests and background factors..
• CAR-DRIVING CONSISTENCY AND MEASURES OF PERSONALITY AI翻译
  作者：VENABLES, P
  摘要：Three groups of Ss[long dash]10 skilled police driving instructors, 10 skilled car club drivers, and 6 drivers of lesser skill[long dash]were studied to determine the relationship of driving consistency to neuroticism and to introversion-extroversion. The driving consistency measures (based on vehicle acceleration and deceleration) were found to be negatively related to the two personality measures for the skilled police drivers and the lesser-skilled drivers, but not for the skilled car club ...
• VOCATIONAL INTERESTS OF MALE AND FEMALE SOCIAL-WORKERS AI翻译
  作者：MCCORNACK, RL
  摘要：For a sample of 496 male social workers, a key was constructed for the Strong VIB that differentiated them from a Men-in-General group with only 16% overlap. A key for female social workers (N = 464) differentiated them from Women-in-General with only 29% overlap.
• THE EFFECT OF SCALE INTERVAL LENGTH AND POINTER CLEARANCE ON SPEED AND ACCURACY OF INTERPOLATION AI翻译
  作者：CHURCHILL, AV
  摘要：To study the effect of interval length and pointer clearance on the speed and accuracy of interpolating to tenths of a scale interval, 10 Ss each reported readings for nine pointer positions for 36 combinations of scale interval length (0.25 to 2.0 inches) and pointer clearance (0.0 to 2.0 inches). Reading time and errors of interpolation decreased significantly as interval length increased from 0.25 to 1.5 inches, and clearance decreased from 2.0 to 0.125 inches.
• A CRITICISM OF STUDIES COMPARING ITEM-WEIGHTING METHODS AI翻译
  作者：MCCORNACK, RL
  摘要：Some authors conclude that because 2 weighting keys for a test or inventory have a high intercorrelation, they must necessarily have equivalent validities for any given criterion. A formula is derived showing that this is not necessarily true. 16 references.
