Gilliland, Kirby, Schlegel, Robert, Dannels, Sharon and Mills, Scott (1989): Relationship between Intelligence and Criterion Task Set Performance. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. pp. 888-890.

“Intelligence has been shown to be a mediating factor in the performance of many tasks. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revived (WAIS-R) scores and performance on a multi-task performance battery, the USAF Criterion Task Set (CTS). Performance scores for high and low WAIS-R groups (N=26/group) were compared across each task component of the CTS. Results of this study indicate that there is a fairly strong relationship between intelligence, as measured by WAIS-R, and performance on the CTS central processing tasks. Subjects scoring high on the WAIS-R are likely to be more accurate and faster in their responses than subjects who scored low on the WAIS-R. Verbal and performance subscales of the WAIS-R did not appear to mediate task performance differentially. In general, WAIS-R performance does not seem to be related to perceptual input tasks or motor/output tasks of CTS battery.”

Gilliland, Kirby, Schlegel, Robert and Dannels, Sharon (1987): Relationship between Criterion Task Set Performance and the Personality Variables of Sensation Seeking and Stimulus Screening. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 402-404.

“The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the utility of the Criterion Task Set (CTS) as a method for personality theory testing. Subjects in a large CTS standardization study were administered the Sensation Seeking scale and the Stimulus Screening scale, two personality dimensions based theoretically on perceptual or biological processes that are believed to mediate task performance. Results indicated that high sensation seekers respond faster, but not necessarily more accurately, than low sensation seekers to central processing tasks. No differences were found for input/perceptual or motor/output tasks. Also, no differences were found between screeners and nonscreeners for any CTS tasks. The results of this study suggest that the CTS can be used profitably by personality researchers to test the basic assumptions of the theories of some personality dimensions.”
