RECENT TRENDS IN ATTRITION OF STUDENT AVIATORS IN THE NAVAL AIR BASIC TRAINING PROGRAM.
Abstract
The primary purpose of this research was to compare reasons for withdrawal from the Naval Air Basic Training Program for January 1955 with the reasons in January 1954 and 1953. A comparison of the flight failure - voluntary withdrawal ratio also was made for calendar 1954 and 1953. The findings were: (1) The most stable reasons for withdrawal from the program were the factors associated with flying; less stable were the factors associated with external influences and attitudes toward the military. (2) There has been a striking reduction in the ratio of voluntary withdrawals to flight failures from calendar 1953 to 1954. (Author)
