结论	The methods for establishing physical standards for specific occupations can be described as consisting of a six-stage process. The first four stages contribute to the initial development of the standards — the tests and minimum test scores that will be employed in selecting among applicants for entry into an occupation or among job incumbents for continuation in the job. The last two stages of the six-stage process focus on implementation and sustainment. The last stage, supporting and updating the standards over time, should be an ongoing effort. Each stage is essential for ensuring that the standards accurately reflect the physically demanding work in an occupation, measure physical capabilities needed to carry out that work, and are set at the right level for successful performance on the job. Attention to a wide variety of technical methodological issues at each stage in the process is crucial for ensuring that the resulting standards are valid and fair. Establishing and validating standards is a complex process that requires multiple lines of research. No single research study can address all relevant issues. Amassing evidence to support a standard should be an ongoing effort.
摘要	We stress the importance of documenting the methods used at each stage to develop, implement, monitor, and update occupation-specific physical standards. Documentation is essential to defending the appropriateness and unbiased nature of the standards. The complex technical details of the six-stage process are determined based on the specific characteristics of the occupation, the environment, and any unique statistical needs or other issues encountered by the analysts. Carrying out the work requires expertise in a variety of domains, including industrial and organizational psychology, exercise physiology or a related field, psychometrics, and statistics. These experts rely on the expertise of subject-matter experts from the occupation, who must be carefully selected to cover all types of work and environments, and on appropriate test subjects drawn from the population of applicants, trainees, and job incumbents.
