Description
Summary:Results: (1) Typed transcripts of all interviews were delivered to ARI under separate covers in three volumes. (2) Twenty-nine potential CEVs were derived from the interview transcripts and developed so that each contains a title and a descriptor. The potential CEVs were face-validated in this project and are susceptible of further validation and cross-validation by SMEs. Each potential variable was designed to serve as a contributing variable in composite criteria of combat - effectiveness after being evaluated for validity by SMEs. Discussion: The potential CEVs derived in this project are deemed to possess face validity based upon the judgments of three Continental Systems Subject Matter Experts. Here face validity means the potential CEVs make sense and. on the surface seem to be reasonable in a military context. However, before full confidence can he placed in the utility of the CEVs, they need to be validated further.
