Abstract

With female operators engaged in assembly, performance on a finger dexterity test was found to be related to job success in two kinds of assembly but not in a third; a hand precision test was related to all three, and an intelligence test to none. Vision tests could be used to pick out those workers who produced more than the average but did work of inferior quality. Using the four tests, a multiple correlation of .60 was obtained with ratings of efficiency. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
