A selection of 21 tests from the French, Ekstrom, and Price battery of cognitive tests and the Cattell 16 PF Test were administered to 54 Army enlisted men. Product-moment correlations and multiple linear regression equations were computed between 16 PF Factor B scores (considered a measure of intelligence) and the 21 cognitive tests. The multiple linear regression equation indicated that 70% of the variance of Factor B scores could be accounted for by the selected cognitive tests.
