Basic Skill Requirements for Selected Army Occupational Training Courses.

Moore, Nancy K.; And Others

Contemporary Educational Psychology, v10 n1 p83-92 Jan 1985

Results suggest that for all occupational specialties studied, skills related to the learning process are as crucial as academic skills for successful training course completion. (Author/BS)
