Psychological Test with Sheet, Army General Classification Test. First Civilian Edition. Form AM
- Description
- In September of 1939, President Franklin D. Roosevelt declared a limited national emergency in the United States, increasing the size of the Army and the National Guard. The Adjutant General’s Office consulted with several psychologists about developing tests to sort the new personnel. By the end of 1940, the War Shipping Administration had published this General Classification Test 1a. Three more editions of what came to be called the Army General Classification Test (AGCT) followed. A civilian edition of the test was first published by Science Research Associates in 1947. This is form AM of that test.
