Abstract
Abstract : The Air Force has three primary organizations that train and screen individuals who wish to become commissioned officers: the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA), located in Colorado Springs, Colorado; the Officer Training School (OTS in San Antonio, Texas; and the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC) at Maxwell AFB, Alabama, with detachments located on nearly 150 college campuses. AFROTC and OTS are subordinate organizations of the Air Training Command (ATC). The Air Force does not accept all applicants for officer training. Each officer training organization subjectively and objectively considers a variety of information to select applicants. In 1989 the commander of ATC directed AFROTC and OTS to consider in their selection processes a recently developed predictor of an individual's propensity to stay (PTS) in the Air Force. Subsequently, Headquarters Air Force Recruiting Service, Officer Accessions, directed this researcher to investigate methods AFROTC might use to implement PTS information into its officer candidate selection process.
