The Army Family Research Program: Sampling Plan for the CORE Research Program

Abstract

The Army Family Research Program (AFRP) is a 5-year integrated research program that supports the Chief of Staff of the Army (CSA) White Paper 1983: The Army Family and The Army Family Action Plans (1984-1990) through the development of databases, models, program evaluation technologies, and policy options that assist the Army to retain quality soldiers, improve soldier and unit readiness, and increase family adaptation to Army life. This report provides details of the sampling design for the soldier portion of the world- wide sample of soldiers, leaders, service providers, and spouses that was conducted between February 1989 and May 1990. Specific topics addressed include (1) a description of the population being sampled, (2) the sampling frames used during each of the three sampling stages, (3) the allocation of types of individuals to be sampled, and (4) the rules for selecting potential participants for the survey.
