structuredatabas00jarv.pdf (4.564Mb)Abstract
The purpose of this thesis was to create a structure for
analyzing the training school performance of Hispanic-
American enlistees in the Navy. This was accomplished by
developing a computerized data base, utilizing an extract of
the Navy Enlisted Classification Tracking file (NECTRACK)
and the Enlisted Training Tracking file (TRAINTRACK)
,
supplied by the Navy Personnel Research and Development
Center. In addition, a review of literature was undertaken
to provide a summary of available information on factors
that may influence the performance of Hispanic-Americans in
the Navy. Finally, the data base was explored by conducting
a preliminary analysis of the relationship between selected
training outcomes and the educational level of Hispanic
sailors. Several recommendations are offered concerning the
application of the data base and the treatment of research
variables. In addition, further study is recommended using
the data set developed for this thesis.
