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 on the Army Family and The Army Family Action Plans 1984-1990 by developing 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 presents a review of the literature on factors that affect readiness and the strength and causal or moderating role of these factors. The report discusses a conceptual model of readiness, the definition and measurement of individual and unit readiness, and the definition and measurement of determinants of readiness.
