The Ability Requirements Scales developed by Fleishman and his associates have been widely used as a job analysis technique. However, the ability ratings obtained with this technique may be confounded by rater bias effects. Fifteen instrument-phase instructor pilots rated the extent to which 32 basic abilities were required to perform 16 helicopter training tasks. Psychometric analyses showed significant differences in rater distributions. The method of successive intervals was used to transform the ratings to a common, equal-interval scale. Analyses of the transformed ratings indicate that significant task-ability discriminations were made that produced a logical, interpretable pattern of ability and task interrelationships.

To meet the changing educational needs of forestry practice, a clear understanding of what foresters and forest engineers do is required. This paper presents the results of a facilitated DACUM workshop in which 10 foresters and forest engineers from across Canada were asked to define the abilities required by foresters in practice. The DACUM process is a job analysis technique that identifies the tasks and duties performed by a competent practitioner. A consensus was reached by the participants on the following general areas of competence: Demonstrate a level of comfort in the woods; apply basic forest operational practices; demonstrate an understanding of economic and resource values; communicate; interact successfully with people; structure problem-solving and decision-making; supervise effectively; manage a working unit; demonstrate an understanding of forest policy and legislation and demonstrate a commitment to life-long learning. A series of analytical frameworks to evaluate the results are presented and the forestry community is asked to respond. Key words: forestry, professional practice, education, learning, competence, DACUM, job analysis, curriculum, teaching, continuing education, certification

Every educational organization, HR has a very important role because HR is the determinant of the success or failure of the organization in achieving organizational goals. In order for organizational goals to be achieved, it is necessary to have job analysis, employee recruitment and employee selection so that the organization can get employees who perform optimally. This study aims to determine the effect of job analysis, employee recruitment and selection on employee performance. This research was conducted at the State Polytechnic of Malang with a population of 565 non-civil servant permanent employees and a sample of 135 people taken randomly. The analysis technique used is SEM by using the AMOS 16 application. The results of the study concluded that job analysis, recruitment and selection of employees affect performance.

Significant progress towards a fundamental understanding of transformation toughening in composite zirconia ceramics was made possible by the application of a TEM contrast analysis technique for imaging elastic strains. Spherical zirconia particles dispersed in a large-grained alumina matrix were examined by 1 MeV HVEM to simulate bulk conditions. A thermal contraction mismatch arose on cooling from the processing temperature of 1500°C to RT. Tetragonal ZrO2 contracted amisotropically with α(ct) = 16 X 10-6/°C and α(at) = 11 X 10-6/°C and faster than Al2O3 which contracted relatively isotropically at α = 8 X 10-6/°C. A volume increase of +4.9% accompanied the transformation to monoclinic symmetry at room temperature. The elastic strain field surrounding a particle before transformation was 3-dimensionally correlated with the internal crystallographic orientation of the particle and with the strain field after transformation. The aim of this paper is to theoretically and experimentally describe this technique using the ZrO2 as an example and thereby to illustrate the experimental requirements Tor such an analysis in other systems.
