Job Attitudes of Air National Guard Personnel.

Abstract

This report is a comparison of Air Force and Air National Guard (ANG) demographic information and job attitudinal differences, as measured by the Leadership and Management Development Center's (LMDC) Orgnaizational Assessment Package (OAP). The data from the UMDC data base were analyzed by comparing demographic and attitudinal results from the OAP individually for officers, enlisted personnel, and GS civilians in the Air National Guard with the results for their data base counterparts in the active duty Air Force. The t-test was used as the procedure to determine if the Air National Guard personnel differed from Air Force personnel at the 95% statistical confidence level. When a significant difference was found, it was analyzed to look for trends, consistencies, and inconsistencies. Results showed the factor Job Related Training more positive in the Air National Guard officer, enlisted personnel, and GS civilians than it was with their Air Force counterparts. ANG officers and enlisted personnel enlisted personnel were more favorable in the factors of Job Related Satisfaction, Task Autonomy, and General Organizational Climate than were Air Force officers and enlisted personnel. Air Force officers and enlisted personnel indicate they have common feelings that their jobs are more repetitive than are the jobs of their ANG counterparts.
