An Exploratory Analysis of Misconduct Behavior within the Radioman Rate and Its Potential Effect on Security

Abstract

An exploratory analysis of misconduct discharges within the Radioman rate was conducted to determine whether these individuals constituted a potential threat to the security of classified information. Two aspects of personnel security examined were pre-service screening procedures and command administrative processes. It was concluded that ASVAB scores and AFQT percentiles were not good predictors of security risks. Pre-service moral character behaviors and in-service interviews did indicate something about an individual's attitude toward rules and regulations. There appeared to be some inconsistency in the application of moral waiver standards. The administrative separation process is deliberate and structured. Commands that provided succinct and accurate recommendations for separation were responded to in a more timely manner. Keywords: Clearances, Stilwell Commission.
