Occupational Survey Report. Officer Professional Military Education Curriculum Validation Project
Abstract
Three separate survey booklets aimed at collecting four different types of information were administered to separate random samples of officers in all career fields, within paygrades 0-1 through 0-6. Administration took place between November 1979 and April 1980. Survey results are based on data from a total of 11,020 respondents. Analysis of paygrade specific data revealed the manner in which officers' leadership, management, and communicative task involvement increases as paygrade increases. Generally, the data show that the percentage of officers in supervisory positions, the percentage of officers assigned to higher organizational levels, and the percent of total job time spent on leadership, management, and communicative tasks all increase from the 0-1/0-2 level to the 0-6 level. Specifically, each task in the job inventory was analyzed according to the percentage of respondents in each paygrade who perform that task. These data can help to determine the paygrade points at which performance of a task becomes significant enough to suggest some attention in PME curricula.
