An Investigation of the Effect of Training.
Abstract
The average behavioral style of individuals participating in Officer Candidate School training changes during training. There was a significant difference between scores obtained at the time of graduation from Officer Candidate School and those obtained approximately three years later. Although no hypotheses were formulated, an analysis of the data in connection with the study indicated that scores obtained by using the test instrument at the time of entry into the training program effectively discriminate the following: (a) Between those who will eventually graduate and those who will voluntarily depart from the program prior to graduation. (b) Between those who will remain in the Army years later and those who will depart from the Army years later. (c) Between those who will both graduate and remain in the Army years later and those who will not graduate and depart from the Army years later. (Author)
