Criterion identification and measurement is often an afterthought in criterion-related validation research. Yet it is essential in determining what predictor measures to use in operational settings. Accordingly, this special issue discusses recent advances in addressing the "criterion problem" in U.S. military enlisted personnel selection and classification research. In this introductory paper, broad issues regarding criterion identification and measurement in the military and previous research on this topic are reviewed and subsequent papers, which address specific criterion issues and describe an unprecedented joint-service criterion project, are introduced.
在效标关联效度研究中,常事后才考虑效标识别和测量问题。然而,这对于确定在实际应用中应采用哪些预测指标至关重要。有鉴于此,本特刊讨论了美国军人征募人员选拔和分类研究中解决“效标问题”的最新进展。在本引言中,回顾了军事领域中效标识别和测量的广泛问题以及该主题的先前研究,并介绍了后续各篇论文,这些论文探讨了具体的效标问题并描述了一项前所未有的多军种联合效标项目。
