Abstract
Abstract : A scaled rating procedure for identifying the physical ability requirements of Army jobs was developed and used to collect data for a sample of incumbent soldiers drawn from four Military Occupational Specialties (MOS). The findings indicated that the instruments and procedures designed to obtain perceived physical ability requirements were reliable. The effort produced profiles outlining the physical ability requirements of each MOS given in this report. A criterion task manual containing the more physically demanding tasks for each strength and stamina factor and a procedures manual describing the steps necessary to establish physical ability requirements for additional MOS are published separately as ARI Research Products 80-5a and 80-5b. If the procedure proves valid, the Army can begin to use the methodology to establish physical ability requirements for all MOS on a judgmental rather than an empirical basis. (Author)
