The Relation of Naval Officer Promotion to Commission Source and Billet History.

Abstract

Career paths and commission source are examined for a sample of Naval officers from year groups 1958, 1958, and 1960 to determine their relationship to promotion to commander. Contingency tables and multiple regressions were used to assess the relationships. Significant effects were found for source and for billets as far back as the third billet prior to entering the zone of consideration. The implications of the findings for organizational and individual career planning are discussed and recommendations made. (Author)
