Evaluations
Soldiers were asked to evaluate and rate their satisfaction with the "Battle Buddy Team Assignment Program" in order to gauge whether the program should be implemented by the Army. Surveys were created to assess:
- The role of personality variables
- Self-assessments of successes due to Battle Buddies
- Potential situational influences
- Buddy interactions/assessments
The following table, for example, displays soldiers' ratings of satisfaction with the Battle Buddy system:
| Disliked Very Much | Disliked | Neither | Liked | Liked Very much |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5% | 4% | 10% | 31% | 50% |
This table, on the other hand, shows soldiers' agreement that Battle Buddies are good Army practice:
| Strongly disagree | Disagree | Neither agree nor disagree | Agree | Strongly agree |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5% | 5% | 22% | 24% | 44% |
