The Army Research Institute Aviation Research and Development Activity successfully implemented the Multi-Track Test Battery (MTTB) and associated classification functions in 1988. The battery and functions have been used to assign flight students to their combat skills aircraft. The present program determined the applicability of the battery to prediction of student performance in flight training. Performance evaluation in training consists of flight phase grades and academic phase grades. In addition to these grades, Overall Average Grade and Overall Flight Grade were also predicted using Forward Stepwise Multiple Regression procedures. Stepwise Multiple Discriminant Analysis was used to investigate two additional measures, flight deficiency training setback and flight deficiency attrition.
