| Abstract | Although researchers have examined the link between job attitudes and turnover, some studies claim that civilian samples may not be generalizable to military personnel. This paper addresses two central questions: (1) To what extent does job satisfaction, job performance, and reenlistment intentions predict reenlistment behavior?; (2) To what extent does job satisfaction and job performance predict later-term attrition? The sample included soldiers in the U.S. Regular Army, serving their first term of enlistment. Researchers administered job satisfaction, job performance, and reenlistment intention measures to 5,706 participants who had enlisted for two-, three-, or four-year terms. As expected, intention to reenlist accurately predicted reenlistment, whereas job satisfaction and job performance proved to be less consistent and less influential predictors of reenlistment. Data analysis for the three-year enlistment term soldiers revealed that job satisfaction heightened predictive power beyond intention. The variance of enlistment rates by term suggests that soldiers, particularly those with two-year enlistments, might have different motivations for enlisting which in turn influence their decisions regarding reenlistment. Lower levels of job satisfaction and job performance indicated a higher probability of attrition for three and four year enlistments. Further analysis of army personnel turnover and job satisfaction is planned. Eight tables provide statistical summaries. (RJM) |
