Data provided by the U.S. Navy were analysed to examine differences in successful flight training completion between men and women and among minorities. Results indicated that there were not significant differences between men and women with regard to attrition; however differences in the non‐completion of flight training did exist among those of different racial backgrounds. Consistent with previous studies, white aviators were found to have consistently higher graduation rates than all other racial groups and Blacks were found to have significantly higher rates of attrition than Hispanic student aviators. Recommendations to seek greater understanding of these discrepancies, including the potential for unfair discrimination, are made. |
