To identify the significant predictors associated with Army Dental Corps junior officers' intent to leave (ITL) the military.
A secondary data analysis of the 2009 Army Dental Officer Retention Survey was conducted. Frequencies, bivariate, linear, and logistic regression analyses were calculated.
Forty-six percent of junior officers completed the survey (N = 577; n = 267). Fifty-eight percent of respondents reported an ITL the military before retirement. The following variables were positively associated (p < 0.05) with ITL: unit of assignment, specialty training status or area of concentration, military lifestyle, and residency training. Age and benefits were negatively associated with ITL.
This study suggests that ITL is a multifactorial issue.
确定与陆军牙科部队初级军官离开军队意愿相关的重要预测因素。
对2009年陆军牙科军官留用情况调查进行二次数据分析。计算了频率、双变量、线性和逻辑回归分析。
46%的初级军官完成了调查（N = 577；n = 267）。58%的受访者表示在退休前有离开军队的意愿。以下变量与离开意愿呈正相关（p < 0.05）：分配单位、专业培训状况或专注领域、军队生活方式和住院医师培训。年龄和福利与离开意愿呈负相关。
本研究表明离开意愿是一个多因素问题。
