Assessment of AFROTC Detachment Effectiveness.

Abstract

This report summarizes a large-scale research effort directed at providing detachment evaluation data to the Air Force ROTC program. Multiple criterion measures were used in the analysis. These included traditional enrollment, production and unit cost data, as well as several longer-range indices of productivity based on graduate performance after entry to active duty (i.e., training elimination rates, on-the-job performance and retention). Criteria were developed by detachment for each year's input from 1964 to 1974(N = 65,000 individual case records). Multiple regression techniques were used to investigate sources of potential influence on the criteria: institutional characteristics of the host-college and program variations unique to the detachments. Applications of results in the assessment of both current detachments and potential host sites are discussed. Implications for policy change are summarized.
