Abstract:
This report describes a study that examined the relationship between the attrition histories of training platoons and the performance and attrition of Marine Corps recruits differing in high school graduation status. Non-high school graduates placed in platoons with histories of high attrition had especially high attrition rates. This finding replicates the results of an earlier study. The results suggest that the attitudes and expectations of drill instructors may exert critical influences over the performance and attrition of platoons. (Author)
