The present study has shown important evidence for the incorporation of biographical predictors of success in military aviation training selection. Through the use of discriminant analysis, the ABI was shown to be a valid predictor of success and failure in military aviation training. The main findings using the ABI method with the present sample were: 1. A 2% increase in the base rate of success in Flight Screening Program which translates to three more successful pilots than would have resulted from the use of the Existing method or four less people being entered into training to obtain 100 qualified pilots. 2. In addition, an annual cost savings of over $314,000 was calculated with use of the Autobiographical Inventory in addition to the existing selection methods. Both of these findings will be addressed in the following discussion. This study conformed to the traditional approach to selection error reduction which is in the direction of reduction of false accepts. Reducing the number of applicants that will fail is in the best interest of the organization. (sdw)
