Modern Volunteer Army Experiment

Abstract

The present report contains the results of the second major evaluation of VOLAR actions at Fort Benning, but without the comparison with a control post. The primary reason for deletion of the control post from this evaluation, and from all future evaluations, is that Project VOLAR actions were directed to be implemented at that post at the end of FY 1971, so that it could no linger serve as a control post. (It was felt that the desirable effects of implementation of VOLAR at that post would far outweigh the loss of the post for control purposes). Consequently, the present evaluation and all future Fort Benning evaluations will consist basically of comparisons between Fort Benning's earlier data collections and data recently collected concerning attitudes of soldiers toward (1) the Army as a career (2) the four broad attitude areas identified earlier (pride in service, security, leadership, and reduced inequities), and (3) specific VOLAR actions implemented at Fort Benning.
