Abstract des Autors

This study describes the 1.5-mile test performance of 1,656 young Air Force officers, officer trainees, and cadets who were enrolled in Air Force officer training programs. More than half (51) of the women performed in Coopers best category (superior), and 85 were in the top two categories. However, only 25 of the men scored in the superior category, and 65 scored in the top two categories. These results indicate a relatively higher level of aerobic conditioning in the women. Only one woman (0.4) and three men (0.2) in the sample failed to meet the Air Force minimum requirements. Verf.-Referat
