Development of the Automated Instructional Management System Data Set of the Officer Longitudinal Research Data Base

摘要

The Officer Longitudinal Research Data Base (OLRDB) was developed to support research on U.S. Army commissioned officers. The Automated Instructional Management System (AIMS) Data Set of the OLRDB provides data on officers' performance in training courses conducted at Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) service schools and training centers. Data were collected from 11 TRADOC schools on officer performance in Officer Candidate School courses and in Officer Basic and Advanced courses for 13 career fields for 1985, 1986, and 1987. This report describes tha contents and development of the OLRDB AIMS data set. The objective of this work was to incorporate AIMS data into a data set that would be compatible with the OLRDB core data set. (kr)
