The lack of scientific studies on predictive criteria for evaluating the clinical potential of students in radiologic technology led to the current study. Students during a ten-year period was subjected to the ACT examinations. These scores were subsequently compared with the students' scores on the examination of The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists, high school grade point average and earned high-school grades in pertinent subjects to see if any predictive factors were evidenced. The result showed correlation of some of these factors with the Registry score of sufficient statistical significance to warrant using them as part of the process for selecting students for radiologic technology programs.
由于缺乏关于评估放射技术专业学生临床潜力的预测标准的科学研究，因此开展了本研究。在十年期间，让学生参加了美国大学入学考试（ACT）。随后，将这些分数与学生在美国放射技师注册考试中的分数、高中平均绩点以及在相关学科中的高中成绩进行比较，以查看是否能发现任何预测因素。结果表明，其中一些因素与注册考试分数之间存在相关性，其统计显著性足以使其作为选择放射技术专业学生过程的一部分。
