Abstract

"This study obtained multiple correlations showing the relationship between seven pretraining variables (rifle steadiness, firing experience, educational level, two measures of intelligence, mechanical aptitude, and mechanical information) and end-of-training marksmanship substantially as well as all seven variables taken together. It was also found that higher predictability was obtained by using the whole method than by using a part method. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
