Factors Influencing Military Affiliation Intentions of First Term Army Enlisted.

Abstract

This thesis examined the military affiliation intentions of first term Army enlistees with less than one year remaining on their active duty obligations. The influence of demographic, experience, economic, and alternative employment factors on affiliation was explored. Results indicated that insights into understanding military turnover can be gained by expanding traditional analysis, wherein active duty reenlistees are contrasted with non-reenlisting peers, to include reserve military service as an option available to soldiers facing the reenlistment decision. Originator supplied keywords include: Retention; Army Reserves; Military Affiliation; Total Army; Career Decisions.
