Giacalone and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army Career Transition Survey (ACTS) was an exit survey designed to measure soldier satisfaction with various aspects of Army life and to determine whether dissatisfaction with these aspects was related to leaving the Army. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the current ACTS data, to compare responses to ACTS items with responses to comparable items on the Sample Survey of Military Personnel (SSMP), and to make recommendations about continuing the ACTS. The analysis of the current ACTS data identified high satisfaction items such as Army Community Service programs and low satisfaction items such as amount of time separated from family. Although there were a few demographic differences, most differences involved rank groups (officers more satisfied than enlisted personnel with higher levels of enlisted more satisfied than lower levels) and marital status (married personnel generally more satisfied than single personnel). Major reasons for leaving included amount of time separated from family, respect Army shows for its soldiers, and promotion/ advancement opportunities. A log linear analysis revealed no overall statistical difference between similar items on the ACTS and SSMP. Since the ACTS provides information redundant to that obtained on the SSMP, it was recommended that the ACTS he discontinued. Also included in the report are appendices containing a survey assessing the satisfaction of the users of Army survey data for calculating Return on Investment (ROI) for survey data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From 1990-1995, the U.S. Army Research institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences administered an experimental exit survey to separating soldiers. This instrument was known as the Army Career Transitions Survey (ACTS). The ACTS was designed for use among separating Active Duty Army personnel to measure: (1) satisfaction levels, (2) perceptions of Army leadership, (3) advice for potential recruits, and the (4) reasons for leaving the Army. The Human Resources Research Organization was awarded a contract to develop standardized administration procedures and to review and revise the items on the ACTS. To meet the goals of this research, the approach primarily involved: (1) gathering information through semistructured interviews with pertinent commands and transition site personnel; (2) reviewing the literature on leadership; (3) pilot testing the revised survey instrument; and (4) analyzing the results. Each of these efforts is addressed individually in this report."--DTIC.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The work described in this report is an extension of the STAY project, with a directed focus on officer career continuance. An Officer Transition Survey (OTS) was developed to identify and examine the factors that influence junior officers to continue serving beyond their ADSO or separate from the Active Army. Career continuance factors and separation motives were identified and documented for 169 Active Army junior officers (O1-O3) who were actively out-processing at Army Transition Centers. Data were also collected from proxy samples that were comprised of 485 junior officers who were in the process of deciding whether to serve beyond their service obligation (officer proxy sample) and 68 experts who work closely with junior officers (expert proxy sample). Results indicated the OTS provides valid, empirical information regarding junior officers' career continuance influences and separation motives. Results also show that officer and expert proxy samples can be used to understand and quantify the motives of officers who are separating from the Active Army. These findings have important implications for collecting valid information using a more efficient, streamlined application of survey methodology that expends fewer resources."--P. i.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report summarizes findings from the 1996 Survey on officer Careers (SOC). SOC is a continuation of the Longitudinal Research on Officer Careers (LROC) survey research program. The LROC program called for similar surveys to be mailed to a longitudinal sample of company grade officers each year over a number of years. Surveys were administered in 1988, 1989,1990, and 1992. The SOC was first administered in May of 1996. Samples for SOC included all officers who had responded to any of the LROC surveys and who were still on active duty, as well as a new randomly-drawn cross-sectional sample of officers at all ranks. This report summarizes findings for the new 1996 cross-sectional sample of officers. The SOC continues to provide data on the values, altitudes, family situations, and career experiences of Army officers who are serving in Army Competitive Category branches. SOC results will be used to test models of work, career, family, and personal factors that influence officers' career decisions. The SOC also provides a rich longitudinal database for examining the Army experience from a long-term perspective."--DTIC.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report summarizes findings from the Spring 1995 Sample Survey Military Personnel (SSMP) which focused on soldier satisfaction with aspects of their Army life, jobs, and careers. A total of 15,113 soldiers responded to the survey. There were few if any differences between males and females in their responses to items on Stress, Promotion Potential, and Global Satisfaction (job/career/life). Females were more positive in their responses to items covering Benefits, Family, Equity, Basic Pay, Job Security (officers only), and Job Characteristics (enlisted only). Males were more positive in their responses to items covering Co-Workers. Supervisors, leeadership, Developmental Courses (more likely to have bad courses), and Absence from Duty Station for Military Reasons (more likely to be deployed/TDY/in training). Results from the survey did not identily any clear cut relationships between job satisfaction and career intent for males or females; however, it does appear that separation from family may be an important factor in why some female soldiers decide to leave the Army."--DTIC.

Book excerpt: "With the recent decreases in the U.S. Army of both personnel and resources and with the concurrent increase in missions performed, there has been concern that the amount of time soldiers are away from home station, or Personnel Tempo (PERSTEMPO), may have a negative impact on the attitudes of Active Component soldiers which in turn affect retention, readiness, and morale. This report investigates the relationship between the amount of time soldiers are away from their duty stations and their attitudes toward the Army. Available data from the spring missions of the Sample Survey of Military Personnel from 1994 through 1997 were used. Data were analyzed with respect to time away from duty station. The more time soldiers spend away from their duty stations, the less likely they are to be satisfied with the amount of time a soldier Is separated from family. For those who are leaving or are thinking of leaving the Army, the first most important reason for officers and the third most important reason for enlisted personnel for leaving is the amount of time separated from family. For officers and enlisted personnel as a whole, the amount of time away from the duty station has no statistically significant relationship with Army career intentions, readiness, morale, stress levels, spouse support, family adjustment and job satisfaction. This report provides a baseline from which leaders may gauge future attitudes and intentions in relation to the amount of time a soldier spends away from the duty station for deployments, training, etc."--DTIC.
