Note. **pc.OOOl. llCombinedlt represents the correlation between<br />

the predictor and the predicted values based on a linear<br />

combination of both predictors.<br />

A second practical concern is the quality of the remaining<br />

recruits to be assigned to the MOS in the 11X series. If all of<br />

the recruits who score high on the additional tests are placed<br />

into one MOS, the remaining MOS will receive less qualified<br />

individuals. It has already been demonstrated that Two-hand<br />

Tracking is as good (if not better) a predictor of TOW gunner<br />

performance as CO. It remains to be shown that selection based<br />

on Two-hand Tracking will lead to less of a decrease in the<br />

quality of the remaining recruits than CO.<br />
