The purpose of this study was to develop a system for the prediction of success or failure in the Naval Flight Officer (NFO) program for use during Basic NFO training. Two initial selection tests (an academic ability test and a mechanical comprehension test) plus two academic performance measures resulted in a multiple correlation coefficient of .45 with a dichotomous criterion of pass/attrite. Decision making regarding the retention of marginal students could be improved by use of the prediction formula generated in this study. (Author)
