Popis: The goal of this project was to create a stage model that can assist instructors in assessing the skill level of Marines working toward mastery in the area of perceptual-cognitive skills. Specifically, this paper describes the design, development, and validation process we followed to create a competency model that defines the levels of performance and behaviors required to develop expertise in each of the taxons delineated in the Perceptual Training and Skills Taxonomy. The paper begins with a description of how the model fits into the overall project and then provides a rationale for the model based on existing research. Following initial development, focus groups were used to validate the Competency Model of Perceptual-Cognitive Skills with experienced military personnel and ensure that it not only reflects current literature but also accurately depicts real-world situations.
