It is then possible to assess that person’s aptitudes and traits as they compare to others who have proven successful in any given job.  \nThrough this unique assessment and the recognition of strengths, further training and development can enhance his or her effectiveness, productivity and job satisfaction.  \nThe Achiever evaluation booklet is the same professionally developed evaluation instrument previously known as The Profile, the C. I.A. Manpower Evaluation Program and the Personal Evaluation Program, although the questions and format of the evaluation have slightly changed over the years to remain in compliance with state and federal laws.  \nThe Achiever was developed and validated by James E. Moore, Ph. D., formerly of Purdue University, along with other professionals including Dr. James E. Moore, Roger Pryor, Psychology M.S., Dallas; Dr. C. Alan Siebenthall, Ed. D., LPC, a leading psychotherapist of Texas and the southwest; Dr. Max Fogel, Ph. D., LPC, University of Iowa, Senior Medical Research Scientist, Eastern Pennsylvania Psychiatric Institute since 1963, Associate Professor in Psychiatry, University of Pennsylvania; and Dr. Stanley Abrams, a psychologist and medical doctor well known on the west coast for his affiliation with the Kaiser Foundation and for research with polygraphy, encompassed in his book, The Legal Basis of Polygraphy.  \nCreated in 1967, the first evaluation was also published in 1967 and utilized by an extensive test group of companies. Dr. Moore, previously mentioned, directed revalidation of the instrument and it was updated and validated in 1972 and again in 1994.  \nThus, the evaluation has been professionally developed and validated with both Construct and Criterion related validity. The Achiever is not discriminatory, but in compliance with both EEOC and other Federal Regulations, having been established and validated in accordance with the procedures described in “Standards of Educational Psychological Tests and Manuals,” required per paragraph (2) 1607. 6,“Minimum Standards for Validation,” Federal Register Volume 35, dated 8/1/70 .  \nAN OVERVIEW OF THE MENTAL APTITUDES AND  \nPERSONALITY DIMENSIONS OF THE ACHIEVER  \nThe Achiever results are presented graphically in a format known as the Stanine system. Following is a discussion of the Stanine system.  \nUnderstanding the Stanine System  \nStanine stands for STANDARD NINE and is a standardized measurement system. In the Stanine system, a line is set up and broken into nine standardized parts, and then contrasted to the Normal Distribution or Bell Curve. Thus, the general population is divided into 9 equal parts. Generally, scores in the 1–3 area are in the lower third of the general population. Scores in the 7–9 area are in the upper third of the general population, whereas the individuals who score in the 4-6 range represent the majority of the population. It is important to note that scores in a particular range are not necessarily good or bad. A score must be considered relative to the requirements of the job.  \nFollowing are definitions for the Mental Aptitudes and Personality Traits measured by the Achiever with detailed interpretive guidance for each measurement.  \nMENTAL APTITUDES  \nMental Acuity-measures learning, comprehension, judgment, reasoning and problemsolving ability.  \nBusiness Terms-reveals the persons knowledge of basic business terms.  \nMemory Recall -refers to knowledge of current events as an indication of how aware the person is of what’s happening in the world.  \nVocabulary-measures general English vocabulary and gives a","cbCaiii4pc8LAcGW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiii4pc8LAcGW","pdf",220591,21,"English","# Introduction\n# An Overview of the Mental Aptitudes and Personality Dimensions of the Achiever\n## Understanding the Stanine System\n## Mental Aptitudes\n## Personality Dimensions","[{\"question\":\"What is the Achiever assessment used to measure?\",\"answer\":\"It provides numerical scores in six mental aptitudes and ten personality dimensions, allowing comparison of an individual’s aptitudes and traits against others who have been successful in specific jobs.\"},{\"question\":\"How are Achiever results displayed in the Stanine system?\",\"answer\":\"Results are presented graphically using Stanine (STANDARD NINE).
