the new interview is criterion-related validity information. Future<br />

validation efforts will be important in evaluating the value of interview<br />

ratings by themselves and in combination with other measures (e.g., colleq<br />

board scores), in predicting important NROTC criteria such as GPA, NSG, 21:<br />

APT, and perhaps attrition from the scholarship program. The interrater<br />

reliability study on the new interview (Borman & Owens-Kurtz, 1989) and<br />

data from Table 1 suggest that the interview has qood potential for<br />

improving the prediction of NROTC student performance. However, validity<br />

data are needed to assess its usefulness in actual practice.<br />
