Download or read book An Evaluation of Personality Testing and the Five-Factor Model in the Selection of Landing Craft Air Cushion Vehicle Crew Members written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of our investigation was to determine if personality testing and a five-factor model could improve the selection of Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) vehicle crew members. Vehicle crew members for the LCAC are currently selected on the basis of their performance on a computer-based psychomotor selection system. The various psychomotor tests in the selection system have demonstrated predictive validity in LCAC crew training. Certain personality characteristics may also be involved in the LCAC vehicle crew training success. In fact, various researchers have found that personality testing may improve the selection of Navy/Marine Corps aviators. There is increasing evidence that a five-factor model may be useful in describing the personality characteristics involved in training success. We believe that a five-factor model may improve the selection system used for LCAC vehicle crew members. A principal component analysis with varimax rotation was conducted to determine the underlying structure of the Adult Personality Inventory (API) with 168 LCAC crew candidates. The resulting factor scores were then analyzed using advanced statistical techniques to determine the relation of the personality factor scores and the performance-based test to an underway grade in training criterion. The results indicated that one personality factor, openness, significantly improved predictions of the criterion (p

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explains the prediction algorithm used by the Landing Craft Air Cushion Vehicle (LCAC) selection system. Five variables from a psychomotor test battery were combined to form a composite score. This composite score was then compared to a threshold score. If a candidate for an LCAC crew position achieved a composite score higher than the threshold score, that candidate was predicted to pass Phase I of LCAC training. Likewise, if a candidate scored lower than the threshold score he was predicted to fail training. The threshold score was determined by Statistical Decision Theory as interpreted from the Bayesian approach. Examples are given showing how the threshold scores can change as a function of the prior probabilities of pass or fail and the values attached to making correct and incorrect predictions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) vehicle operator/engineer selection research activities undertaken since August 1988. Relevant literature and Navy LCAC personnel interviews resulted in a description of entering LCAC operator/engineer trainee skills and knowledges. Based on the literature review and the experience of key NAMRL psychologists an LCAC operator/engineer selection test battery was developed and automated for testing on an Apple IIe computer. The LCAC battery was designed to select those candidate most likely to succeed in training and in operational environments. The battery consists of automated perceptual/cognitive psychological tests including performance-based single and multi-task tests and a personality and biographical inventory. Key tests include Dichotic Listening and Psychomotor tests performed under multiple-task conditions. These tests measure divided attention and eye-hand-feet psychomotor coordination. Other tests include the Manikin, task, one-dimensional tracking and digit cancellation tasks, work and family orientation questionnaire, and the risk taking tests. These tests measure reaction time, spatial orientation, short-term memory, achievement motivation, and risk taking tendencies. (AW).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1966 a Landing Craft Coordinating Group was assembled to discuss and draft specifications for a new landing craft. The work resulted in the Patrol Air Cushion Vehicle (PACV) that saw service in Vietnam. By 1970 designs for an Amphibious Assault Landing Craft (AALC) were on the drawing board. The US Navy ordered the first three LCACs February 1982. LCACs move over rocks and other beach obstacles and have reduced susceptibility to damage from mines. The crew consists of five enlisted personnel: Deck Engineer, Load Master, Navigator, Engineer, and Craft Master. LCACs are not given names, only pennant numbers, to differentiate among them. With an originally specified 30-year life expectancy, LCACs would have begun to retire in 2004 except for a major Service Live Extension Program (SLEP) begun in 2001.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Air Cushion Vehicle Operator Training System (ACVOTS) program is planned to identify and fully define, test, evaluate and document Air Cushion Vehicle (ACV) operator training devices and systems. Two advanced development ACVs, designated JEFF(A) and JEFF(B), are currently being tested under the Navy's Amphibious Assault Landing Craft (AALC) Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT & E) program. These craft were designed and built to develop the technology and assess the feasibility and military utility of employing ACVs in amphibious assault. The follow-on design and procurement of the production craft are being accomplished under the Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC) acquisition program. The LCAC craft are intended to be operated by an all enlisted crew. Follow-on Navy-run training for the LCAC is projected to begin in 1986. (sdw).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although diversity is a twentieth-century term, as the United States continues through the twenty-first century, the issue of diversity in society and in organizations is becoming more complex. Managing Diversity in the Military addresses current equal opportunity and diversity issues and explores how the military is attempting to resolve them.The research presented reflects interests of scholars from various backgrounds who use different models, approaches, and methodologies, many of which are adapted from the study of civilian institutions. The work is divided into five sections ""Contemporary Approaches to Managing Diversity,"" ""Diversifying Leadership: Equity in Evaluation and Promotion,"" ""Gender Integration and Sexual Harassment,"" ""Military Discipline and Race,"" and ""Where Do We Go from Here?"" which proposes future research directions for equal opportunity and diversity management in the armed forces.All of the areas explored in this accessibly written volume have counterparts in the civilian sector. The book offers insights, practical methodologies, and effective management guidelines for commanders, civilian-sector executives, and human resource practitioners responsible for equal opportunity programs and outcomes. This is now the standard social research tool in an area of profound practical concerns.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of an Air Cushion Vehicle Operator Training System (ACVOTS) Problem Analysis. Data were collected from training site visits. The focus of the analysis was on the JEFF B air cushion vehicle. Significant recommendations for development of a Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC) training system that will result in a training and cost effective operator training system are as follows: Conduct an ISD program per MIL-T-29053B(TD), MIL-STD-1379B, or similar specifications; Incorporate 'lessons learned' and training concepts and strategies from both the surface and aviation communities, as well as the existing AALC and Voyageur ACV programs; Assign an education specialist (1710) to the LCAC program; Develop an LCAC operator manuals systems; Develop an LCAC operator instructor training program, and Expand the ISD training development to other LCAC areas to include remaining onboard crew members and all areas of LCAC maintenance.
