Personnel, advertising, market research. Jenkins is a case of the applied psychologist working in military skill selection and applying these empirical techniques to business leadership questions, procedures considered quite despicable when found in other countries but admired here. This is his main work. Jenkins: PhD Cornell, academic career at the University of Maryland, but his main work is done in the Navy, developing techniques for selecting pilots. Bennett's obituary notes: "The widely discussed "nominating technique" grew out of this work. Whereas this technique was used in the Navy to assess individual performance in a situation too complex for the application of standard measures, it promises to have a much broader application in connection with general problems of leadership, morale and organization.".
