摘要
Tested 164 men retiring from the Army after 20 yr. of service on the Army General Classification Test-3a. The results were compared with their scores earned 20 yr. earlier, as recorded on their Form 20s. Group means showed very small declines over time. Only on the pattern analysis subtest, a measure of perceptual reasoning, was the decline significant at the 1% level. Individual patterns of change varied widely from man to man. Gains on 1 or more subtests were common. Only 2% of the Ss showed a substantial decline on all subtests. In this sample, changes in test score correlated near 0 with age, with interval between tests, and with a health questionnaire.
