This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military has been continuously engaged in foreign conflicts for over two decades. The strains that these deployments, the associated increases in operational tempo, and the general challenges of military life affect not only service members but also the people who depend on them and who support them as they support the nation â€" their families. Family members provide support to service members while they serve or when they have difficulties; family problems can interfere with the ability of service members to deploy or remain in theater; and family members are central influences on whether members continue to serve. In addition, rising family diversity and complexity will likely increase the difficulty of creating military policies, programs and practices that adequately support families in the performance of military duties. Strengthening the Military Family Readiness System for a Changing American Society examines the challenges and opportunities facing military families and what is known about effective strategies for supporting and protecting military children and families, as well as lessons to be learned from these experiences. This report offers recommendations regarding what is needed to strengthen the support system for military families.

Book excerpt: This document describes a set of interrelated surveys administered to 224 Army National Guard and 217 Army Reserve company-sized units. The purpose of the 1979 Reserve Force Studies Surveys was to collect data that would allow analyses of Reserve Force unit manning problems and the assessment of strategies for improving reserve strength. Questionnaires were administered to all unit personnel--both junior and senior enlisted members and unit commanders. The first three sections of this note describe the overall survey design, as well as the procedures used to design and administer the surveys, the model developed for monitoring the data collection and the strategies implemented to increase survey response rates. Section four provides an assessment of the success of the fieldwork procedures. The final section summarizes problems encountered in conducting the survey and includes recommendations for future survey efforts with Reserve Force personnel as well as other military populations. Appendices include copies of a task outline of all steps required to conduct the surveys and letters and notices sent to sample members to encourage survey participation.

Download or read book 1979 Reserve Force Studies Surveys written by Zahava D. Doering and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1979 Reserve Force Studies Surveys were designed to provide the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Reserve Affairs) (ODASD-RA) and the Army Reserve Components with data that can support policy formulation and research on reserve force manning problems. Since the end of the draft, concern about the reserve forces has focused on the continuing declines in Selected Reserve personnel strength, particularly in the Army National Guard and Army Reserve where manpower shortfalls are most severe. The increased concern about reserve supply has led to the implementation of a range of different Selected Reserve programs in the past two years and additional programs are under discussion. However, analyses which identify the approach or mix of approaches which may be appropriate for addressing reserve force manning problems are limited. Data collected in the 1979 Reserve Force Studies Surveys will make possible analyses which focus on reserve force unit manning problems and the assessment of strategies for strength improvement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study program seeks to develop broad strategies and specific solutions for dealing with present and future defense manpower problems. These goals require new methodologies for examining broad classes of manpower problems as well as specific problem-oriented research. In addition to analyzing current and future manpower issues, it is hoped that this study program will contribute to a better general understanding of the manpower problems confronting the Department of Defense. A key component of the program is the development of DoD-wide data bases that can support the policy research and analysis necessary for dealing with present and future defense manpower problems. Such data should include information about the behavior, experiences, attitudes, preferences, and intentions of military personnel. Particularly if collected on a periodic basis, these data would be helpful in assessing the response of military personnel to past or current policy chanes and could be used to identify future areas for policy action. This note provides an overview of the design together with a description of the field procedures for one of the major data bases created in this program.

This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The health and economic costs of tobacco use in military and veteran populations are high. In 2007, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Defense (DoD) requested that the Institute of Medicine (IOM) make recommendations on how to reduce tobacco initiation and encourage cessation in both military and veteran populations. In its 2009 report, Combating Tobacco in Military and Veteran Populations, the authoring committee concludes that to prevent tobacco initiation and encourage cessation, both DoD and VA should implement comprehensive tobacco-control programs.
