"Joint studies by PRB and HumRRO were undertaken at Ft. Leonard Wood, Mo. using over 2200 limited ability men to evaluate an I and E sponsored special training program to try out special selection tests as predictors of trainability of limited ability men"--Prelim page.
Most ARI research on military delinquency has focused on predicting, at the point of entry, those personnel most likely to commit delinquent acts within a fixed time period (e.g., by the end of Basic Combat Training). Across the variety of investigations which focused on various types of delinquency some consistent findings emerge. Component of service (i.e., volunteers vs. draftees) and several closely associated variables--age at entry, level of education, and mental ability--are associated with delinquent acts; such background data and peer ratings provide the best predictors. Attempts to develop a more precise profile of the military delinquent have not been very successful, and programs aimed at rehabilitation of potential delinquents have actually proved counterproductive. All of these outcomes suggest that future research should concentrate more on the context in which delinquency occurs and less on the characteristics of those who commit delinquent acts.
