Preliminary Assessment of the Army's Incentive Program for Recruiters

Abstract

This research was part of a larger data collection effort conducted between August and October, 1981. Recruiters and station commanders were interviewed and surveyed to determine their knowledge of and attitudes about the current incentive awards program. Recruiter attitudes toward the current award system were examined as a function of gender, performance, satisfaction with recruiting, and recognition received from commanders. Recruiter and station commander suggestions concerning changes in performance measurement, consequences of performance (the awards), and system management were examined as well.
