Using an Assessment Center to Predict Field Leadership Performance of Army Officers and NCOs by Frederick N. Dyer Pdf

"During 1973 and 1974, the U.S. Army Infantry School (USAIS) Assessment Center (ACTR) at Fort Benning, GA., tested 408 officers and NCOs who were students in USAIS leadership courses. Field leadership performance ratings for these assessees were then obtained at 6- and 18-month intervals following graduation and assignment to new units. Complete rating data was obtained at 6 months for 159 of the original assessees and at 6 and 18 months for 108 of these assessees. Correlations between these ratings at 6 and 18 months averaged .66 for the different assessee groups, indicating a substantial degree of reliability for the rating instrument. Field leadership performance at 6 months was predicted by items in entry interview, a paper and pencil test, and a Person Description Blank. Taken together, however, the results indicate only marginal utility for the USAIS ACTR for prediction of the field leadership performance of junior officers and NCOs. Typically, the more assessor time required for an assessee measure, the less chance that the score would predict field leadership."--Abstract.

Prediction of Job Performance by Robert Vineberg Pdf

Literature pertaining to prediction of enlisted military job performance, 1952-1980, was reviewed. The review excluded studies in which training performance or reenlistment is the criterion. Aptitude was the most frequently used predictor and supervisor ratings the most frequent criterion. Relationships among classes of criteria and between predictors and criteria were examined. Major classes of criteria were job proficiency, job performance, and suitability to military service. The following conclusions are supported by the review: (1) For the great majority of jobs, job knowledge tests appear to provide the most practical method of objective measurement; (2) Because job sample tests are very expensive to construct and administer, their use is not practical unless the job is extremely costly or critical; and (3) Use of supervisors' ratings as the only measure of job performance should be restricted to jobs for which motivation, social skill, and response to situational requirements are the only attributes worth measuring. Two promising approaches to improved prediction are the selective use of miniaturized training and assessment centers and the use of self-paced training performance as a predictor. The review includes abstracts of the studies that were reviewed.

Social Awareness and Leader Influence by Rose A. Mueller-Hanson Pdf

This research entailed developing and testing a detailed program of instruction to help Army leaders improve their social awareness and influence skills. Based on input from Soldier subject matter experts and the behavioral sciences literature, two training programs were developed: a six-hour classroom course and a parallel web-based course. Additionally, four assessments were created: a Social Awareness and Influence Skills Self-assessment to assess self-perceptions of skills, a knowledge test to assess learning in the course, a situational judgment test (SJT) to assess the students? ability to apply social insight and judgment to interpersonal situations, and a web-based role-play to assess the students? ability to apply influence tactics. These courses and assessments were then subsequently tested in two pilot samples. Results of the participant reactions questionnaire indicated that the training programs in both the classroom and web-based formats were well received by the target audience and that participants gained new knowledge as a result of the course. Results also indicated promise for the measures piloted in this project. The outcomes of this effort include a fully developed classroom-based POI and a companion prototype web-based POI that are suitable for first-line Army leaders (E4 to E6 and O1 to O3).
