Approximately half of all recruits drop out of Marine recruit training. Identifying associated and predisposing factors for dropout would be helpful to understand dropout patterns and induce preventive strategies. Grit has been suggested to be a predictor of who is likely to succeed and who is not. We aimed to investigate the association between baseline grit scores and dropout of Marine recruit training in the Netherlands Armed Forces. We performed an exploratory study using data of three platoons Marine recruit training of the Royal Netherlands Marine Corps. Individual grit levels were measured using the NL-Grit scale, including two subscales. The primary outcome of this study was successful completion or dropout of Marine recruit training. Data were available from 270 recruits, of whom 119 (44%) dropped out of training. The odds ratio for dropout were 1.01 (95% CI 0.84-1.21, = .917) and 1.07 (95% CI 0.89-1.29, = .481) per standard deviation increase of and , respectively. Our study did not confirm the proposed association between baseline grit levels and dropout of Marine recruit training in Dutch Marine recruits using the NL-Grit scale.
大约一半的新兵会在海军陆战队新兵训练中退学。识别退学的相关因素和诱发因素将有助于了解退学模式并制定预防策略。有人认为毅力是预测谁可能成功、谁可能失败的一个因素。我们旨在调查荷兰武装部队海军陆战队新兵训练中,基线毅力得分与退学之间的关联。我们利用荷兰皇家海军陆战队三个新兵排的训练数据进行了一项探索性研究。使用NL-毅力量表(包括两个子量表)来测量个人的毅力水平。本研究的主要结果是海军陆战队新兵训练的成功完成或退学。共有270名新兵的数据可供分析,其中有119人(44%)退学。每增加一个标准差的[具体指标1]和[具体指标2],退学的比值比分别为1.01(95%置信区间0.84-1.21,P = 0.917)和1.07(95%置信区间0.89-1.29,P = 0.481)。我们的研究未证实使用NL-毅力量表时,荷兰海军陆战队新兵的基线毅力水平与新兵训练退学之间存在所提出的关联。
