The Commander's Unit Analysis Profile (CUAP)

Abstract

The Commander's Unit Analysis Profile (CUAP) questionnaire is a diagnostic tool for providing commanders of company-size units knowledge of enlisted attitude related to such factors as Cohesiveness, Training, Leadership, Discipline, Job Satisfaction, Morale, Reenlistment, etc. The questionnaire, which is completed in about 15 minutes, can be read by soldiers with minimal reading skills. Administration procedures require no special training and provide confidentiality for both respondents and commander. Only areas over which commanders exercise control are covered. The CUAP does not replace the commander's responsibility for judging the mission readiness of the unit: rather it identifies attitudinal proclivities that may detract from or contribute to overall operational effectiveness. The purpose of this report is to describe the Commander's Unit Analysis Profile project being conducted by the Army Research Institute's Field Unit at Fort Hood, Texas.
