More Book Details

Description of the Book:

The Special Assignment Battery (SAB) was constructed in reponse to requests from the Marine Corps for objective procedures that would improve their ability to select the most qualified Marines for the important jobs of recruiter and drill instructor. Prior to implementing the SAB, Headquarters, Marine Corps, requested additional analyses to verify the results of earlier validity studies of the SAB. Three new investigations were undertaken. Two studies involved the SAB recruiter selection composite, the third concerned the drill instructor selection score. The results from these studies provided strong confirmatory evidence of the positive findings from earlier development work. Based on these findings, the Navy Personnel Research and Development Center recommended implementing SAB as one of the selectors for assigning Marines to recruiter and drill instructor duty. It was also recommended that, if implemented, SAB be revalidated within two years
