Survey of Soldier Quality of Life at Fort Hood

Abstract

A questionnaire was developed and administered in the fall of 1975 to a sample of soldiers at Fort Hood for the purpose of determining lower ranking soldiers' satisfaction with living, working, and training at Fort Hood. Analysis of the results led to the conclusions that areas of soldier dissatisfaction involved problems over which a post commander usually has little relative control, while areas of soldier satisfaction included areas over which a post commander usually has a relatively large amount of control. For several questions there was a significant positive correlation with soldiers' stated intent to make a career of the Army.
