Abstract

The objective was to determine which if any variables available at time of Officer Candidate School (OCS) selection differentiate between OCS graduates who extend their initial obligated service (3 years) as Naval officers (Retainees) and those who decide to be released from active duty (Separatees). Random samples of Retainees and Separatees (100 each) were compared on 55 background variables, using appropriate statistical significance tests of obtained differences. The variables consisted of 8 Demographic, 3 Aptitude, 8 Military Related, 15 Collegiate, 12 Hobby, and 9 Various Other background variables. (Author)
