This book was released on 1988 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project was designed to improve the understanding and modeling of the decisions, made each year by thousands of first-term soldiers, to reenlist in the Army or to leave for civilian jobs and school. A model of the reenlistment decision formulated from a decision-analytic perspective was developed, based on an extensive review of the literature in the areas of military personnel, job satisfaction and job change, and decision theory, as well as from focus groups conducted with first-term soldiers at Fort Benning, Georgia. A multicomponent decision-modeling approach incorporating attitudinal, normative, and affective predictors of reenlistment intent was then developed, along with a set of instruments to capture data on these components. Consistent with previous findings for an enlistment task, the analysis of the pilot test data indicated that the three components predicted reenlistment intent in the following rank order: affect, attitudinal, and normative. The results also suggest that the Army has available tools for influencing these reenlistment decisions that are much more varied than the limited set of mainly economic factors that are now predominant in these programs. Specifically, the affective component dominated the economic variables in predicting reenlistment intent for this limited sample of soldiers, and may be an important reenlistment program and policy lever in the future. Keywords: Military personnel, Retention.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army must ensure that retention efforts result in the reenlistment of enough qualified enlisted personnel to maintain force readiness. The purpose of this research was to identify factors that influence soldiers' reenlistment intentions and decisions. A comprehensive model of career decision making was developed and tested using path analysis. The findings indicate that the major determinant of reenlistment intent is organizational commitment, which in turn is influenced by tenure, satisfaction, and perceptions of unattainable needs and aspirations, civilian alternatives, MOS, and demographic and organizational variables on reenlistment intent. Discussion addresses the relevance of the findings to retention policy and career counseling in the Army. Keywords: Job satisfaction, Enlisted personnel, Occupational stress, Work adjustment theory, Multivariate analysis, Path analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report explores organizational and personal correlates of intentions to reenlist or remain on active duty in the Army for both offices and enlisted service members. Prediction of career intention proved to be efficient and parsimonious for enlisted personnel. Only three characteristics (time in service, age, and job satisfaction) comulatively accounted for 48% of the variance in the criterion. Among officers, nine predictors explained only 41% of the variance. Other variables associated with enlisted career intention were certain types of military occupational specialty and units of assignment, education, race, and appraisal of other members of the unit. Officer correlates of career intention were age, time in service, certain types of occupational specialties, and units of assignment, deviance, and assessment of unit readiness. Implications of these correlates are presented from perspectives of possible Department of the Army policy initiatives and considerations in unit personnel management style.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes an extensive investigation of the constructs of motivation, morale, and job satisfaction as they relate to enlisted personnel in the United States Army. A comprehensive literature review helped to delineate definitions of the three constructs and to identify motivation and satisfaction inventories to be tried in the field. In addition to existing inventories, new measures also were developed for field testing. Since the literature review revealed almost no measures explicitly designed to measure morale, another phase of our research was devoted to a series of workshops where Army officers and enlisted personnel recounted actual episodes that they perceived to be indicative of different levels of unit morale. These episodes were used to define eight dimensions of unit morale and to develop scales for rating a unit's morale on those dimensions (Community Relations; Teamwork and Cooperation; Reactions to Adversity; Superior-Subordinate Relations; Performance and Effort; Bearing, Appearance and Military Discipline; Pride in Unit, Army, and Country; and Use of Off-Duty Time). The questionnaires, inventories and rating scales were field tested by administering them to 466 enlisted men (representing 104 platoons and 16 companies) in the Eighth Army (Korea), 614 soldiers (representing 47 platoons and 16 companies) in the Seventh Army (Germany) and 126 men in Minnesota National Guard units.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the reenlistment intentions of enlisted personnel in their second term of military service. Data were taken from the 1979 Department of Defense [Survey of Personnel Entering Military Service]. About 2,500 enlistees (from all services) met the working definition of having less than one year remaining in their second term, having served six to ten years, and having achieved a pay grade of E3 through E7. A statistical analysis (logistic regression model) was tailored to each service; it related the survey respondent's reenlistment intentions to four types of factors: compensation, promotion, location, and job satisfaction. Compensation and promotion emerged as the key factors, the others assuming varying degrees of importance in different services. As a reenlistment incentive, however, guaranteed location of choice emerged as potentially important, along with bonuses, shorter reenlistment periods, and increased probability of promotion.

Data were taken from the DoD Survey of Enlisted Personnel, completed in mid-1979. About 2500 enlistees (from all services) met the working definition of having less than one year remaining in their second term, having served six to ten years, and having achieved a pay grade of E3 through E7. A statistical analysis (logistic regression model) was tailored to each service: it related the survey respondent's reenlistment intentions to four types of factors: compensation, promotion, location, and job satisfaction.
