Book Description
This study examined the attitudes of Army and Marine Corps officers towards a set of career rewards, investigated the probability that these officers felt they would receive the desired career rewards during their military careers and attempted to determine what relationship existed between the officer's perceptions of important career rewards and their decision to remain in or leave the military. A survey was conducted on a random sample of 92 Army officers from the 7th Infantry Division, Ft. Ord, California and 119 Marine Corps officers from the 1st Marine Division, Camp Pendleton, California. The results indicated that intrinsic rewards were perceived, overall, more important than extrinsic rewards. Further, respondents perceived the probability of receiving these important intrinsic rewards as quite low. This perception was found to correlate highly with the officers' career decisions.

Socioeconomic Factors and Personal Characteristics Affecting the Retention of Officers in the United States Army and United States Marine Corps
Author: Jay D. Steele

Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
This thesis addressed the question of which factors most highly influence the career decision of officers in the U.S. Army and Marine Corps who are between their fourth-year and twelfth-year of service. This was accomplished using data from the 1985 DOD Survey of Officer and Enlisted Personnel in a logistic regression model. Several conclusions were drawn from this study. Intrinsic factors appear to contribute more to the career decision than extrinsic factors. Specifically, promotion probability and satisfaction with current job have the most influence . Extrinsic factors, especially length of service and sex, are also important. The impact of individual factors, however, is generally quite small; so an effective retention program must include a combination of factors. Finally, the Army as a whole, Marine Corps as a whole, and Army medical specialists are not homogeneous and so must be considered separately when determining policy changes intended to increase retention. Keywords: Officer personnel, Personnel retention, Motivation.

Job Satisfaction Among United States Navy and Marine Corps Aviation Officers - A Study of the Impact on Career Retention
Author: Daniel J. Sullivan

Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
United States Naval Aviation Officer retention has been identified by senior-level personnel managers as one of the largest challenges faced by the services in recent years. In robust economic times all branches of the armed forces face the challenge of retaining sufficient highly-trained volunteers. The aviation community is disproportionately affected due to the long lead time associated with aviation officer training and the potential for long-term lucrative civilian job opportunities compared with existing military pay and benefits. This study documents the development of a retention survey aimed to quantify Naval aviation officer attitudes towards job satisfaction and turnover intent. Previous research has indicated that measurements of job satisfaction are the most reliable predictor of one's intent to remain with an existing employer. To best understand this relationship, CART and logistic regression models are proposed to predict Naval aviation officer retention These model were developed using a principal components analysis of survey data elements. Work satisfaction and age were analyzed in terms of their impact as moderators of the relationship between job satisfaction and retention. Work Satisfaction factors were found to be significant in models that predicted turnover intent half again better than if one was to merely provide a sample estimate.

An Analysis of Officer Accession Programs and the Career Development of U. S. Marine Corps Officers
Author: Levent Ergun
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781423503804
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
The purpose of this thesis is to identify and evaluate factors that affect career development of U.S. Marine Corps officers. The analysis includes evaluation of fitness reports, performance at The Basic School (TBS), retention, and promotion to 0-4 and 0-5 ranks. The primary goal is to explain the effect of officer commissioning programs on officers' careers. The personnel database used for the analysis includes more than 28,000 Marines who entered between FY 1980 and 1999. The performance models assume that commissioning programs that provide longer and more intensive pre-commissioning acculturation, or that credit enlisted service experience, will be associated with better performance Performance models are specified and estimated for TBS class rank, retention to 10 years of service, promotion to 0-4 and 0-5, and for a Performance Index (PI) derived from fitness report marks.
