14. ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 words):
A Training and Evaluation Outline (T&EO) describes the task, conditions, and standards for training and is the Army standard for training and evaluating individual and collective tasks. There is conflicting evidence on the extent to which T&EOs are used. This effort examined the frequency of T&EO use according to commission type (officers and noncommissioned officers), training environment (Combat Training Center versus Home Station), and Career Management Fields (CMF). Performance on T&EO task steps and performance measures (sub-steps) are evaluated using GO/NOGO, a method that may not be sufficiently discriminative. In order to determine the acceptability of using a numeric scale, preferences for GO/NOGO versus a numeric scale were examined. The results indicate that frequency of T&EO use was bimodal: falling in either < 40% or 60%. There was no strong preference for using GO/NOGO or a numeric scale for the task steps but a strong preference for using GO/NOGO for the substeps. The findings were the same regardless of commission type, training environment, and CMF.
