present situation and problems involved in development of the pilot aptitude test.
This part of the review (Part 2) addresses the present and future of the pilot aptitude test in the United

multitasking ability, development of new pilot aptitude test in the JASDF and applied possibility of the
methods in neurocognitive science. We also discuss the future issues about pilot aptitude test.
Throughout the review, the organization which uses the pilot aptitude test should evaluate the
reliability and predictive validity of the test periodically and flexibly. Then the organization should
consider the improvement plan by using the achievement of the advanced research.
