A Dynamic Model of Navy Enlisted Retention

Abstract

In recent years, models have been developed to assess the impact of military and civilian pay, sea duty, and other socioeconomic variables on first- term and subsequent retention. This report outlines a new, dynamic model of Navy enlisted retention behavior that spans the entire enlisted career with time- dependent pecuniary and nonpecuniary covariates. In addition to elasticity measures, a visual estimate of a career survival curve can be produced. The effects of different policies on survival (retention) can be visually analyzed. Given the results of the model's validation, highly accurate assessments of the effects of different management policies are expected.
