The comprehensive engineering report is a pilot study | |
which uses Dr. Frederick I. Herzberg's Motivation - | |
Hygiene (M-H) Theory to evaluate U.S. Army recruiters. | |
Six battalions were evaluated. The approach was a | |
comparison between those recruiters selected by their | |
battalion commanders as the battalion's best recruiters, | |
against an equal number of all other recruiters in the | |
battalion. There are 62 best recruiters and 61 others for | |
a total of 123 subjects. Each recruiter was requested to | |
provide both a positive and a negative critical incidents | |
response, resulting in 226 events. Two hypotheses were | |
evaluated using chi square tests. Both hypotheses were | |
statistically significant and were supported at critical | |
levels well beyond 0.005. 1. Army recruiters show a | |
predicted or typical M-H profile to other occupations. 2. | |
Successful recruiters, as judged by the battalion | |
commanders, are more positively related to the typical M- | |
H profile that are the nonselected (others) recruiters. | |
The pilot study was a success, although tighter controls | |
should be implemented for future studies. The findings | |
indicate that further studies could benefit U.S. Army | |
Recruiting Command. | |
