title: Maintaining standards of excellence in radiologic technology admissions: directions for future research on selection predictors.
abstract: The continuing decline in the number of applicants to radiologic technology educational programs is beginning to stress the traditional standards of excellence in admissions. To maintain standards, it is imperative that reliable predictors are developed to assess the full potential for success of all individuals in the restricted applicant pool. This article reviews the research done with noncognitive measures, identifies those that increase predictive efficiency, and proposes directions for future research in this area.
