Desmond, Richard E.; Weiss, David J.

Journal of Vocational Behavior, 7, 1, 13-26, Aug 75

A modified version of the Minnesota Job Requirements Questionnaire (MJRQ), representing the GATB aptitudes, was used by workers in 11 selected jobs to rate the ability requirements of their jobs. Worker MJRQ ratings were compared with supervisor MJRQ ratings. Reliability of worker MJRQ ratings was comparable to that of supervisor ratings. (Author)
