Two experiments were conducted to determine the utility of a microprocessor-based video test for the prediction of tank commander performance. A task analysis identified elements to serve as simulated job samples. Significant correlation coefficients were obtained between test performance and supervisory rankings, but were positive for two groups and negative for two groups. It was concluded that the predictive validity occurred by chance.
