Shortening of Defense Language Aptitude Battery
In: DTIC AND NTIS (1981)
Abstract: The Defense Language Institute, Foreign Language Center (DLIFLC) is the proponent for the Defense Language Aptitude Battery (DLAB), used in screening recruits for aptitude to learn foreign languages. DLIFLC is attempting to shorten DLAB without decreasing its reliability or validity. Item analysis data was used to plan eleven possible shortening strategies with different number of items deleted from original test. One hundred sixty-four answer sheets were rescored and recorrelated with a foreign language course grade after items had been deleted according to each strategy. Tests from another sample will also be rescored and recorrelated with the criterion using each of the test shortening strategies in order to cross-validate the original results. ; This article is from Proceedings of the Annual Conference of the Military Testing Association (23rd) held at Arlington, Virginia on 25-30 October, 1981. Volume 2, ADA130703, p1173-1178.
