Miniature job training and evaluation situations were developed and administered to 1034 “low aptitude” Navy recruits. Checklist criterion data describing the on‐the‐job performance of the sample were collected after the recruits were on their fleet assignments: (1) nine months, and (2) 18 months. The results confirmed prior findings relative to the predictive validity of the miniature job training and evaluation approach and supported contentions favoring the power of the concept over a paper‐and‐pencil testing approach.
