As cyber jobs in the Army grow in importance, it becomes essential to have effective selection and classificationprocesses and tools in place. These can ensure that the Army identifies personnel with the aptitude to succeed andassigns them to appropriate jobs. While tests are available that identify personnel who already have key knowledgeneeded for cyber jobs, there are currently no tests that can identify service members who have the potential to dowell in cyber jobs but do not have existing cyber knowledge. The current research developed an innovativeassessment called the Common Cyber Capabilities (C^3) Test to measure seven constructs that were identified inprevious job analysis research as important to success in cyber jobs: Active Learning, Complex Problem Solving,Critical Thinking, Deductive Reasoning, Inductive Reasoning, Selective Attention, and Troubleshooting. Preliminarydata was collected from a sample of 67 subjects who completed the C^3 Test, a small number of related measures,a demographics questionnaire, and a feedback questionnaire. The operationalization of the constructs, validationresults, and recommended next steps are discussed. |
