Title:

Corporate Author:

Abstract:
The paper examines econometric models of Army enlistment behavior in terms of the enlistment experiences observed for 1958 to 1968, 1969, and 1970 and reports on how the results can be used by policy analysts. It discusses econometric models that were developed to explain the behavior of white Army enlistees in the top three mental categories. The results are used to compare the forecasting accuracy of the models with other simpler models, to assess the effects on enlistments of a shift to the lottery draft, and to make projections of enlistments to 1980.
