Abstract:

The Propensity Measurement Model Final Report presents analyses of enlistment likelihood and estimates of high and low quality measures using data collected in the Youth Attitude Tracking Study. For the analyses, survey data were matched to military records to develop models for estimating both performance on military qualifying AFQT tests and on the probability of future enlistment. Report includes a review of literature on enlistment intentions, a discussion of methodology used and replication strategy for deriving enlistment behavior from survey data, and models for replicating the study from future data collections. Model, Enlistment intention, AFQT, YATS.
