Physical Performance Standards for Army Jobs: Criterion Task Manual

摘要

This manual provides a listing of the tasks of four Army jobs which were rated by incumbents as the most physically demanding and the most critical, on the following dimensions: upper body strength(static, dynamic, explosive), lower body strength (static, dynamic, explosive), trunk strength, stamina, consequences of inadequate performance, delay tolerance, and learning difficulty. The jobs are Infantryman, Combat Engineer, Armor Crewman, and Military Police. Research has indicated acceptable reliability for the rating procedure, and the manual indicates some additional utility outside of the military setting. (Author)
