N2  - Using the case of a pilot trainee selection problem as a vehicle for demonstration, this paper develops a multiple logistic function (MLF) for screening candidates unfit for the job on the basis of their test scores.Using animated computer graphics on a personal computer, 15 single plus 9 dual tasks involving various perceptual/psychomotor functions and information processing are administered to 105 subjects, and 62 performance measures are collected. By statistically evaluating these measures, 7 most important measures relevant to flight performance are selected to be used as a new pilot trainee selection battery, applicable in the field without much logistic difficulty.Treating the measures from 7 different single tasks as "risk" variables, an MLF involving a linear discriminant function is developed. Retrospective classification demonstrates that the MLF is capable of predicting 80% of the observations correctly regarding their group origin.<p />
