“…Moore et al (1996) found that eligibility for the VSI/SSB and higher AFQT scores have a positive effect on the probability of leaving. All else equal, their findings indicated that women are more likely to stay than are men, but married women are more likely to leave than are married men, indicating an interaction of gender with marital status in the effect on retention.…”

“…Some enlisted retention studies deal explicitly with contract extensions, with some treating them as a separate category and others including them in the stayer group, others treating them as a separate category, and still others limiting the sample to those who reenlist or leave. Quester and Adedeji (1991) and Moore et al (1996) use a binary choice, treating enlistees who extended their contract as stayers. In this thesis, extensions could not be distinguished from reenlistments and both groups were considered stayers.…”

“…Quester and Adedeji (1991) and Moore et al (1996) find a negative effect for high AFQT score on enlisted retention behavior. Because the AFQT SCORE is used a predictive proxy of cognitive abilities, Marines who have high AFQT scores have higher opportunity of finding a good civilian job.…”

“…While Quester and Adedeji (1991) and Moore et al (1996) find a positive effect for marriage and number of dependents on enlisted retention behavior, Lee and Maurer (1999) find mixed effects of family status. Family status consists of dummy variables for three facets; being married, having dependents and having a working spouse.…”

“…Study by Moore et al (1996) Moore et al (1996) focused on the effect of the Navy's drawdown programs on second-term retention behavior by comparing retention rates of sailors who were eligible for the Voluntary Separation Incentive (VSI) or Special Separation Benefit bonuses and those who were not. The data for the study included sailors who made retention decisions between FY 1983 and FY 1994.…”

DISTRIBUTION CODE ABSTRACT (maximum 200 words)This thesis develops multivariate logit models to estimate the impact of marital status and the independent effect of dependent children on nuclear submarine officer retention beyond the minimum service requirement (MSR). Using data from the Navy History Promotion File, the Naval Officer Fitness Report Summary File and the Officer Loss File, logit models are specified to analyze the probability of nuclear submarine officer retention beyond the MSR. The probabilities are modeled as functions of marital and dependency status, commissioning source, undergraduate major, age and early performance evaluations. The findings reveal that being married with dependent children at the 0-3 promotion board, being older at commissioning, being commissioned via an enlisted commissioning program and being recommended for accelerated promotion at least once as an 0-2 are all positive indicators of submarine officer retention beyond the MSR Being commissioned via the Reserve Officer's Training Corps (ROTC) and the Officer Candidate School (OCS) are negatively associated with submarine officer retention. Based upon the research results, recommendations are made to conduct further research to determine retention elasticities of submarine officers based on dependency status to determine the most cost-effective means of improving junior officer retention. ] SUBJECT TERMS

Football is not ‘a matter of life and death’. It is far less important than that. Football and the COVID-19 pandemic in England

Football is currently given a significance it just does not deserve. To many fans now, it seems to have an obsessional, unhealthy importance. The current Covid-19 pandemic is an opportunity to gain a renewed perspective on football. It is just a game. We can easily live without it -if we have to. During the Second World War, for example, professional league football stopped in England for seven years. The current disruption of the game may enable us to see and value the game in a different, healthier way. This commentary explores the impact of Covid-19 on the game in England, in part by using a historical perspective, drawing upon events which have significantly disrupted the game in the country in the past. To put events in England in a wider perspective, I also then include some reflections on the impact of Covid-19, other pandemics and other events, which have disrupted football around the world.
