Some Concomitants of Cadets' Use of Their Time,

Abstract

In the Spring of 1971, all cadets were asked to report their use of time on weekdays in nine comprehensive categories, the adjustments in time allocated to each that they recommend as improving their overall development in consonance with the mission of USMA, how they would use an extra 60 minutes if it could be made available, their use of time on weekends, the adequacy of time available for them to meet all typical weekday demands (overall) and for academic study, their usual cumulative fatigue status, the year experienced as the hardest in terms of academic work load and of overall load, and the number of different kinds of extracurricular activities in which they participated actively. They also listed any extracurricular activities to which they then were devoting an average of at least five hours a week. This report presents a summary of the responses to each question and the results of relatively intensive analyses of the interrelationships between the questions, and of relationship between each cadet's responses to relevant questions and his rank in the Corps of Cadets, Corps assignment, time spent studying, academic average for that term, academic potential (CEER), and leadership potential (ASR).
