Abstract:
Objective To study the applicability of Vienna Test System ( VTS) to psychological screening of flying cadets,and to establish a corresponding standard model for flying cadets .Methods VTS and pilot psychological selection system were used to evaluate the mental health of 134 cases of flying cadets , SPSS 13.0 was used to compare their consistency and relevance.Results The results of VTS included the raw score of overall mean duration [(46.68 ±21.06)s] on 2hand test, the correct reaction times (246.54 ±25.88) on DT test, the normal values of overall mean duration [(27.84 ±21.98)s] on 2 hand test,and the correct reaction times (60.57 ±18.61) on DT test and other indexes. Pearson coefficient was calculated as predictive validation .The composite score of VTS was significantly positively correla-ted with the first platform(r=0.46,P<0.0001), the second platform(r=0.27,P<0.05) and the psychological perform-ance of the pilot psychological selection system (r=0.31,P<0.05).Kappa-test showed that the two methods were highly consistent(Kappa=0.53).Conclusion The application of VTS to screening the mental health of flying cadets can yield and quick but accurate results , which are of high reliability and validity .It is undoubtedly of great significance for improving the level of aviation security ,objectivity of selection results and predictive validity .
