Download or read book The 71F Advantage written by National Defense University Press and published by NDU Press. This book was released on 2010-09 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes a foreword by Major General David A. Rubenstein. From the editor: "71F, or "71 Foxtrot," is the AOC (area of concentration) code assigned by the U.S. Army to the specialty of Research Psychology. Qualifying as an Army research psychologist requires, first of all, a Ph.D. from a research (not clinical) intensive graduate psychology program. Due to their advanced education, research psychologists receive a direct commission as Army officers in the Medical Service Corps at the rank of captain. In terms of numbers, the 71F AOC is a small one, with only 25 to 30 officers serving in any given year. However, the 71F impact is much bigger than this small cadre suggests. Army research psychologists apply their extensive training and expertise in the science of psychology and social behavior toward understanding, preserving, and enhancing the health, well being, morale, and performance of Soldiers and military families. As is clear throughout the pages of this book, they do this in many ways and in many areas, but always with a scientific approach. This is the 71F advantage: applying the science of psychology to understand the human dimension, and developing programs, policies, and products to benefit the person in military operations. This book grew out of the April 2008 biennial conference of U.S. Army Research Psychologists, held in Bethesda, Maryland. This meeting was to be my last as Consultant to the Surgeon General for Research Psychology, and I thought it would be a good idea to publish proceedings, which had not been done before. As Consultant, I'd often wished for such a document to help explain to people what it is that Army Research Psychologists "do for a living." In addition to our core group of 71Fs, at the Bethesda 2008 meeting we had several brand-new members, and a number of distinguished retirees, the "grey-beards" of the 71F clan. Together with longtime 71F colleagues Ross Pastel and Mark Vaitkus, I also saw an unusual opportunity to capture some of the history of the Army Research Psychology specialty while providing a representative sample of current 71F research and activities. It seemed to us especially important to do this at a time when the operational demands on the Army and the total force were reaching unprecedented levels, with no sign of easing, and with the Army in turn relying more heavily on research psychology to inform its programs for protecting the health, well being, and performance of Soldiers and their families."

Book Divining Victory  Airpower in the 2006 Israel Hezbollah War

Download or read book Divining Victory Airpower in the 2006 Israel Hezbollah War written by William M. Arkin and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-09-09 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of an airpower-dominated campaign, one that was deeply flawed in its design yet impressive in its efficiency. This quick-look study is based upon visits to damaged sites, villages, towns, and cities; discussions with government and military officials; and experience of having evaluated airpower and its effects in Afghanistan, Iraq, and the former Yugoslavia (and previously in Lebanon). Months of follow-up research included exchanges with Israeli, Lebanese, Hezbollah, and US experts. The intent was to develop a timely airpower narrative to enhance professional military education and planning. About the author: William M. Arkin is an independent military analyst, journalist, and author. He writes the "Early Warning" column for washingtonpost.com (where he previously wrote the "DOT.MIL" column from 1998 to 2003) and is a longtime NBC News military analyst.(Originally published by Air University Press)

Book Literature on Personnel Vetting Processes and Procedures

Download or read book Literature on Personnel Vetting Processes and Procedures written by David Stebbins and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. government vetting processes and procedures for public trust and national security positions are evolving to improve their effectiveness and to incorporate new technological capabilities. The rise of social media and other sources of information not historically used for vetting purposes are increasingly enhancing legacy vetting systems that otherwise might not uncover a prospective government employee's or contractor's propensity to cause harm to national security institutions. This reform effort is intended to protect government systems, information, and assets by ensuring aligned, effective, efficient, secure, and reciprocal processes to support a trusted federal workforce. The authors researched, reviewed, and assembled a selected bibliography of relevant literature related to government and other relevant vetting processes and procedures. The bibliography is organized into 13 categories, each containing a short summary and analysis of the respective literature. The bibliography addresses current U.S. government practices, policies, and procedures, as well as those of the United States' Five Eyes (FVEY) community partners (the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada), and it also highlights research conducted by others within the private sector and by academic institutions.
