Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This review and critical analysis of attempts at morale measurement presents the first phase of an investigation aimed at developing an effective means for measuring morale among Air Force personnel. The uses of morale measures as predictors and as criteria are noted, and the implications of each usage for measurement are discussed. The problem of scale dimensionality is analyzed, and studies are cited demonstrating the confusion resulting from erroneous assumptions of unidimensionality. An analysis of low intercorrelations among diverse morale relevance emphasizes notions of dimensional relevance and concept relevance. A review of definitions of morale points out such problems as the equating of job satisfaction and morale, individual and group references, and definitions for which no measurement operations presently exist. The collection of methodologies and conceptualizations which, in effect, constitute the body of morale theory, is reviewed with particular attention to conclusions drawn from factor analysis. These results give a basis for a more exact and complete analysis of the dimensions of Air Force morale.

Book excerpt: In an attempt to determine and measure aspects of airman morale, 167 questionnaire items were assembled and administered to a thousand airmen. By cluster and factor-analytic techniques, eight scales were derived, one of them defined as a measure of General Morale. Three of the scales are independent of each other, but closely related to the General Morale Scale; satisfaction with the Air Force as a whole, with Management and Communication, and with the Unit and its Leadership. The remaining four scales are relatively independent of all other scales.

Download or read book Morale Level as a Function of the Subject s Own Definition of Morale written by Rosalie K. Ambler and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was hypothesized that morale level as measured by a self-rating scale would vary as a function of the subject's own definition of morale. During the week of their graduation from training, 560 Naval aviation trainees were administered an anonymous questionnaire that, among other things, asked them to give their own definition of morale. They were then instructed to note the morale of their own group in advanced training on a ten-point scale with their own definition as a frame of reference. A content analysis of the definitions was made, and three definition areas were identified. These can be described briefly as task oriented, group oriented, and feeling oriented. Mean morale rates were obtained for the subjects falling in each of the definition categories. Significant differences among this array of means were demonstrated. The task oriented group yielded the highest mean, with group oriented and feeling oriented following in that order. Hypotheses for further study were developed. (Author)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven hundred and seven naval aviation trainees from three stages of training were administered an anonymous questionnaire that asked them to give their own definition of morale. They were then instructed to rate their own morale on a ten-point scale using their definition as a frame of reference. A content analysis of the definitions identified the following categories: task oriented, group oriented, and self oriented. Mean morale rates were obtained for the subjects falling in each of the definitional categories and stages of training. The results showed that morale increased as trainees progressed from pre-flight to basic flight training, that morale level varied as a function of the definition expressed, and that the definition expressed was a function of the stage of training experienced.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of four papers reporting development of scales for measuring morale among Air Force personnel. Data from published reports of six previously developed scales were reanalyzed and the results compared with those for the scales developed in this project. Factor analyses show nearly all the scales with high loadings on the first centroid factor, indicating a large general factor, termed morale or general attitude tow the organization. The one consistent separate factor was Supervision. Variation of other factors from study to study is attributed in part to differences in attitude structuring among the various samples of workers, but in larger part to differences in the content and organization of the particular scales used. The report includes a discussion of special problems in factoring small matrices.
