"This report documents research to evaluate a realistic job preview (RJP) booklet for soldiers and families interested in U.S. Army Special Forces (SF). The RIP provides accurate, detailed information about important aspects of SF jobs. Recruiters began distributing it in 1994 to potential recruits to encourage informed decisions about joining SF and to help prepare those who volunteer. The evaluation objectives were to: (1) assess and describe booklet implementation, (2) assess the impact on recruits' commitment to joining SF, and (3) document ideas for improvement. We collected survey data from recruiters and from new recruits before and after booklet fielding. The data showed that soldiers who received and read the RJP booklet tended to be located at posts with a strong SF presence and tended to be relatively knowledgeable about SF. The selective nature of our sample of booklet readers made interpretation of the evaluation data difficult. However, the RJP appeared to provide new and important information that was often used in the decision process. Wives in particular seem to have benefited from the information. Recruiters and soldiers reacted favorably overall. The findings supported continuation of the booklet with modifications such as additional detail on Family Support Groups and deployments, and minor formatting changes."--DTIC.

Download Information Needs of Enlisted Soldiers when Making a Special Forces Career Decision Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This research identifies the kinds of additional information enlisted soldiers need when considering a Special Forces (SF) career. Researchers examined existing survey data and findings from SF recruiters and new SF recruits to identify gaps in job information. In addition, they conducted structured interviews and/or surveys with enlisted SF soldiers, SF wives, and commanders and staff within the SF community to determine the specific information that recruits need. Researchers concluded that soldiers need additional information in four key areas: family-related information, Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) and SF Group assignment processes, training and preparation, and SF missions and activities. They suggested ways to address the information gaps in these areas and proposed an outline for an information booklet that could serve as a realistic job preview. The booklet will provide comprehensive, realistic information about SF to prospective recruits and may also support SF recruiter training.

Download Job Analysis of Special Forces Jobs Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This report describes a job analysis of U.S. Army Special Forces (SF) jobs. The overall goal of the project was to gather information that will aid in the development of new SF performance measures. This goal required two types of information-the individual attributes requisite to SF performance and the field performance of SF jobs. The research involved five major steps: (1) development of workshop materials and logistics, (2) administration of workshops to collect critical incidents and task and attribute ratings, (3) analysis of task and attribute data, (4) development of performance categories and behavior-based rating scales, and (5) analysis of linkages between attributes and performance categories. Active duty SF noncommissioned officers (NCOs) and officers and a Subject Matter Expert Panel composed of SF officers and NCOs at the Special Warfare Center (SWC) participated in all parts of the project. The primary products of the project were behavior-based rating scales for SF jobs, definitions of individual attributes important for successful performance in SF jobs, and job task ratings. These products form the foundation for development and validation of selection and classification measures for SF jobs.
