本研究的主要目的在於探討飛訓生之人格特質與其飛行訓練表現之關係。於本研究中,飛行表現的指標有二:一為完訓與否(即通過或淘汰),另一則為通過飛訓者之術科成績(即高分或低分通過)。綜合兩類的分析結果顯示:通過鑑定飛行(實際飛行十至十二小時)之初階飛訓生在卡氏十六種人格量表上之反應,具有較高的穩定性、恃強性、與興奮性,且在樂群性、敏感性、與憂慮性上之反應較技停組低;而在已經通過鑑定飛行之學生中,高術科成績者較低分者具有較高的有恆性、敢為性、及幻想性等特質。綜合兩項分析之結果顯示出:為了提升飛訓教育的成效,於甄選飛訓生時不僅應以能否通過鑑定飛行為考量,而且應須更進一步地以長遠的訓練成果為著眼點,甄選飛行表現較優者,期能提升飛訓生之素質。再者,依據本研究的結果茲提供四項建議。其中之一即是基於招生的現實困境,面對飛訓生的來源窄化,建議以主動式輔導的推展,主動地發現可能發生學習上瓶頸的學生(即低效能者),給予適時的協助,以助其順利的完成飛訓課程。如此透過主動式輔導的應用,結合心理測驗與輔導,應能提升飛訓之成效並降低飛訓之成本。
The current study aims to explore the relationship between a cadet's personality and his flight performance. There are two indexes for flight performance in this study: one is passed or failed at the flight training courses; the other is a cadet's score for the flight training courses (i. e., high passed or low passed). The results show that the passed beginners have higher scores on ”ego strength”, ”dominance”, ”elation”, and have lower scores on ”warmth”, ”emotional sensitivity”, and ”guilt proneness” in comparison with the failed candidates on their scores of 16PF. In addition, comparing the high passed with the low passed, the results show that the high passed ones have higher scores on the ”persistence”, ”boldness”, and ”bohemianism” than that of the low passed. The current results suggest that pilot selection should not only focus on the pass or failure at the flight training, but also should consider cadets' flight performances among the passed ones. However, in the current epoch, it is very difficult to recruit high potential candidates for air force academy in Taiwan. In this regard, it is important to combine psychological tests, counseling, guidance, and education to enhance cadets' flight performances.
