Analyses of Recruit Training Practices Related to the Military Performance of Enlisted Navy Women

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to identify aspects of the training of male and female recruits at the RTC Orlando which might lead to differential military performance in the fleet. The intent was to isolate training practices that could be interpreted as unequal treatment based on sex, and also to isolate practices that were, in the practical sense, 'equalized' but producing poor military performance. A goal of the study was to recommend to the RTC changes in the management of recruit training that would help to minimize male-female training differences and enhance female performance.
