Recruitment Analysis of Air Force Family Day Care Providers.

Abstract

This thesis is a qualitative, exploratory research effort which seeks to identify the motivators which influence Air Force Family Day Care (FDC) providers at Wright-Patterson AFB to enter and exit the FDC program. Two instruments were developed to measure the degree to which current and former FDC providers were influenced by various motivators identified through literature review and professional observation. Further, this thesis presents the results of the recruitment instrument which indicate the providers in the Wright-Patterson AFB FDC program are primarily motivated by their desire to remain home with their own children. The results also indicate there may be a difference in motivation between those providers who are in the program because they need to earn an income and those providers who are in the program because they want to earn spending money. Last, this thesis suggests areas for future research.
