“…The questionnaire, originally designed to identify competence profiles of airline pilots, was adapted for health care professionals and other groups of professionals [ 30 ]. The design of R-Track is based on the Fleishman Job Analysis Survey (F-JAS) [ 31 ], which is a job analysis instrument of skills and abilities that are relevant for the accomplishment of certain occupational tasks or activities and can be used for all kind of professions [ 32 ].…”

Background The medical specialties are characterised by a great diversity in their daily work which requires different sets of competences. A requirement analysis would help to establish competence profiles of the different medical specialities. The aim of this pilot study was to define competence profiles for individual medical specialties. This could provide a framework as support for medical graduates who wish to choose a medical specialty for their postgraduate training. Methods In February 2020, physicians were invited via the State Chamber of Physicians’ monthly journal to electronically fill out the requirement tracking (R-Track) questionnaire. It contains 63 aspects assigned to six areas of competence: “Mental abilities”, “Sensory abilities”, “Psychomotor and multitasking abilities”, “Social interactive competences”, “Motivation”, and “Personality traits”. The expression of the different aspects was assessed on a 5-point Likert scale (1: “very low” to 5: “very high”). Sociodemographic data and information about the current workplace (hospital or practice) were also collected. Results In total, 195 practicing physicians from 19 different specialities followed the invitation by the State Chamber of Physicians to participate in this survey. For almost all medical specialties, the competence area “Motivation” reached rank 1. “Psychomotor and multitasking abilities” received high ranks among specialties performing surgical activities, while “Social interactive competences” and “Personality traits” were highly rated by specialties with an intense level of patient-physician-interaction. “Mental abilities” were only rated highly by radiologists (rank 2) and physiologists (rank 3) while “Sensory abilities” were generally rated very low with the expression (rank 4) for anaesthesiology and ENT. Conclusions In this pilot study, a first outline of competences profiles for 17 medical specialties were defined. The specific “Motivation” for a medical specialty seemed to play the greatest role for most specialties. This first specialty specific competence framework could provide a first insight into specific competences required by medical specialties and could serve medical graduate as a decision aid when looking for a medical specialty for their postgraduate training.

“…The aim of the second study was to find out the job requirements for the future high-speed train drivers by expert ratings. Therefore, the Fleishman Job Analysis Survey, F-JAS, 31 was distributed to the current job holders via the German Union of Train Drivers (GDL). The return rate for this survey equaled 42% ( N = 21).…”

This study aims at identifying the roles and tasks of a train driver, who operates a highly automated high-speed passenger train, as well as the job requirements in terms of personnel selection criteria. To this end, two studies-a prospective task analysis and a prospective job analysis based on Fleishman-were conducted with two samples of experienced highspeed train drivers from Germany. The results show that cognitive information acquisition and continuous monitoring tasks require mental persistence and sustained attention, thus converting the train driver into a train operator. It is proposed that the future tasks and working conditions should be designed to strengthen the train operators' share in tasks of information integration, strategizing, and decision-making. Thus, the detrimental effects of continuous monitoring tasks, which are well established across transportation industry domains, could be alleviated.

“…To this end, we used the F-JAS developed by Fleishman and colleagues (Fleishman, 1975(Fleishman, , 1995Fleishman & Reilly, 1992, 1995 and considered to be an effective tool for analyzing job-related abilities (for a review, see Wilson, 2007). A specific feature of our studynotably in relation to the work by Lekbir (2005), who created sets of abilities only on the basis of Fleishman's typologyis that it aimed to identify the subset of crucial abilities specific to each of the four air force specialties.…”

The first objective of our study was to identify the common and specific crucial abilities for fighter pilots, transport pilots, fighter weapon systems officers (WSOs), and transport WSOs. The second aim was to prioritize clusters of abilities. We used an online questionnaire to survey 479 expert pilots and WSOs in order to assess the level of requirement of 33 cognitive, psychomotor, and perceptual abilities on a Likert-type scale. Two groups of abilities were identified: a common group and a specific one composed of abilities that are crucial for specific jobs. The prioritization of clustered abilities indicated differences in the level of requirement within the so-called crucial abilities. This study led to the identification of four specific profiles of ordered abilities.
