In this assignment, you begin working toward a culminating assignment in Week 5. This week, you will analyze the position of commercial airline pilot, using the Week 2 readings.
Read the “Making Air Travel Safer Through Crew Resource Management” (CRM) article on the American Psychological Association website, which you will use for assignments throughout this course.
Write a 1,100-word paper that addresses the following:
Select one job analysis method (discussed in Chapter 3–be specific) that would best be used to conduct a job analysis for the position of commercial airline pilot. You can also use information from O*NET OnLine website.
Justify the use of the job analysis method you recommend by comparing it to at least one other job analysis method. (cite textbook). Again, be specific: do not simply say you will use a “job oriented” or “person oriented” approach. The methods discussed in the text are
- Job Components Inventory
- Functional Job Analysis
- Position Analysis Questionnaire
- Task Inventory
· Evaluate various psychological tests and other methods (cite Ch. 5 from text, use other “good” sources if necessary) that would be important to consider when hiring commercial pilots.
· Differentiate between various performance appraisal methods (cite methods from Ch. 4, text) that would be most suitable for this particular job.
Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines
