Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attrition of aviators is of major concern to the Navy because of the costs and numbers involved. The Navy currently forecasts aviator retention and attrition by extrapolating historical trends. This thesis recommends that the Navy replace the current method with two alternative statistical techniques: logistic regression and classification trees. They are recommended for two reasons. First, the proposed techniques make significantly more accurate forecasts of aviator retention than the current method. Second, the proposed techniques, unlike the current method, can identify the significant variables affecting aviator retention. Use of the proposed techniques can therefore lead to the formulation of better aviator retention policies by the Navy. These arguments are demonstrated with a case study of an existing retention database. The variable identified as most significant for aviator retention in this analysis were the geographic location of an aviator' duty station, assignment to non-flying billets, and grade. Policy implications of these findings are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past ten years, maintenance career fields in the U.S. Air Force have been negatively affected by a series of events that have resulted in an experience shortage. Although there has been an improvement in Total Force manning since 2015, several skill levels are still experiencing shortages. To bridge the experience shortfall, the U.S. Government Accountability Office called for an Air Force retention strategy tailored to retain experienced maintainers. The RAND Corporation was asked to explore whether individual characteristics, economic and geographic factors, and the new Blended Retirement System (BRS) could provide additional insights into what predicts retention of this workforce. This report focuses primarily on aircraft maintenance career fields, with some attention to munitions and logistics career fields as resources permitted. The authors undertake two analytic approaches to examine the underlying determinants of retention. First, they use logistic regression to determine how strongly a variety of individual and environmental characteristics are associated with decisions to reenlist, extend an enlistment, or separate from the Air Force; second, they use RAND's Dynamic Retention Model to estimate how the new BRS will affect maintenance, munitions, and logistics career fields when those in the new system reach retention decision points. The authors find that changes in individual characteristics and environmental variables have improved retention in the maintenance, munitions, and logistics career fields. Although much of what influences retention is beyond the Air Force's control, the authors offer a number of recommendations and identify areas of emphasis that could be exploited.
