在训练的早期阶段，对600名海军飞行员学员进行了专门的认知功能测试。从航空训练毕业的海军飞行员学员的视觉空间技能(心理旋转和空间定位点)比退学的学生更高。在文字顺序技能(语言流畅性和顺序记忆)上的表现在两组之间没有差异。视觉空间分数的分布表明，合理的分界点本可以消除比投资于培训之前的毕业生多得多的辍学。Logistic回归还表明，字形顺序技能的高表现提高了视觉空间能力低的飞行员的成功几率，但降低了视觉空间能力高的飞行员的成功几率。
Tests of specialized cognitive function were given to 600 student naval aviators in early stages of training. Visuospatial skills (mental rotation and locating points in space) were higher for student naval aviators who graduated from aviation training than for those who dropped out. Performance on verbosequential skills (verbal fluency and memory of serial order) showed no difference between the groups. Distributions of visuospatial scores demonstrated reasonable cutoff points that could have eliminated considerably more dropouts than graduates prior to investment in training. Logistic regression also showed that high performances on verbosequential skills improved the odds of success for aviators with low visuospatial ability but decreased the odds for those with high visuospatial ability.
