The Development of an Attitude Measurement Device for Improvement of Selection/Screening of U.S. Personnel for Overseas Duty

Abstract

The selection and screening of U.S. Navy personnel for overseas duty is an important task. This study researched the ranking of ten qualities of U. S. Navy personnel, by Allied military officers and their wives at the Naval Postgraduate School. The rankings were compared with responses from U.S. officers and enlisted personnel also at the school. Several questions concerning personal interaction by Americans with host-country nationals were asked. The results indicate general agreement on certain attitudes between Americans and non-Americans but that there are some countries that vary significantly.
