When assessing the psychological suitability for the profession of a pilot, it is important to consider personality traits and psychomotor abilities. Our study aimed at estimating the role of temperamental traits as components of pilots’ personality in eye–hand co-ordination. The assumption was that differences in the escalation of the level of temperamental traits, as measured with the Formal Characteristic of Behaviour—Temperament Inventory (FCB-TI), will significantly influence eye–hand co-ordination. At the level of general scores, enhanced briskness proved to be the most important trait for eye–hand co-ordination. An analysis of partial scores additionally underlined the importance of sensory sensitivity, endurance and activity. The application of eye–hand co-ordination tasks, which involve energetic and temporal dimensions of performance, helped to disclose the role of biologically-based personality traits in psychomotor performance. The implication of these findings for selecting pilots is discussed.

Making use of the earlier designed computer tests assessing the hand dexterity, a study was performed in which the time of task completion was measured in a group of 88 mentally impaired children aged 7-15 and a group 86 of control children. All the children were also asked to take two types of psychological tests: Wechsler test subscales blocks and puzzles and Bender-Santucci test. Results of the computer tests discriminate these groups of children, indicating statistically significant differences between the corresponding mean values. The values of the Pearson coefficient (0.35 ≤ rp ≤ o.57) for the control group point to a relatively high correlation between the computer test results and those of psychological tests. The sensitivity and specificity analysis is also presented to show that the computer tests fulfil the criteria for a screening test.
