Consultation with the First Cavalry Division, Fort Hood, Texas: 1st Cav Survey.

Abstract

Cohesion is best described as a multi-face construct. Specific survey instruments are required to assess morale and cohesion. The 1st Cav Survey can be described as an instrument having reasonable reliability characteristics. Factor analyses and reliability estimates of item clusters were performed. Convergent validity for the 1st Cav Survey was able to successfully discriminate the soldiers who were scheduled to participate in the field exercise from those who were cut in Phase I. Keywords: Stress; cohesion; morale; population.
