Book excerpt: This note discuss how within the context of the Target Acquisition and Analysis Training System (TAATS), the Basic Combat Vehicle Identification (CVI) training program was used to gain insight into the influence of GT scores, verbal skills, and morale on vehicle identification performance. Verbal skills were measured with an instrument created for this study, the Verbal Cue Recognition (VCR) Test. Morale was measured with items drawn from the Commander's Unit Analysis Profile (Palmer et al, 1983), and titled the Training Readiness Questionnaire (TRQ). All soldiers received the same treatment, a standard administration of the Basic CVI Training program following the administration of both the VCR and TRQ tests. A regression model was developed using the VCR test, the TRQ, and the GT for the first sample. Results of the sample indicated that the VCR test, the TRQ, and the GT were correlates of performance with the Basic CVI Training Program. A cross-validation of the model, using the second sample was conducted, and the regression model composed of the VCR, TRQ, and GT showed a weakness as a predictor with the validation sample used.
