INTRODUCTION
The RAND Corporation is a nonprofit research organization providing objective analysis and effective solutions that
address the challenges facing the public and private sectors around the world. It conducts studies in the public interest
supported by the United States government, by local and state governments, by private foundations, and by its own funds
derived from earned fees. The work involves most of the major disciplines in the physical, social, and biological sciences,
with emphasis on their application to problems of policy and planning in domestic and foreign affairs.
The methods and findings of RAND research are reported chiefly in RAND’s publications. Many RAND studies
appear also as articles in professional, scholarly, and technical journals (published in our Reprint series), and as books
published by other commercial publishers and university presses. Selected RAND Abstracts (SRA) is a complete guide to
current unclassified RAND publications.
The numbered publication series includes:
MG
TR
CF
CT
DB
RGSD
RP
OP
RB
CP
WR
LRP
Monograph
(Technical) Reports
Conference Proceedings
Testimony
Documented Briefings
Dissertations
Reprints
Occasional Papers
Research Briefs
Corporate Publications
Working Papers
Library Reprints
The Monograph and the Technical Report are the principal publications documenting and transmitting RAND’s major
research findings. Monographs strive to be comprehensive or analyze a problem from a variety of perspectives. Technical
Reports may include research findings on a specific topic that is limited in scope or intended for a narrow audience;
present discussions of the methodology employed in research; provide literature reviews, survey instruments, modeling
exercises, guidelines for practitioners and research professionals, and supporting documentation; or deliver preliminary
findings. Conference Proceedings, Testimony, and Documented Briefings report on those events after the fact.
Dissertations emanate from the Pardee RAND Graduate School. The Reprint series reproduces previously published
journal articles and book chapters. Occasional Papers may include an informed perspective on a timely policy issue, a
discussion of new research methodologies, essays, a paper presented at a conference, or a summary of work in progress.
Research Briefs are policy-oriented summaries of published RAND research. Corporate publications describe the nature of
RAND and its work as a whole. Working papers are intended to share the authors’ latest research findings and solicit
informal peer review. LRPs are articles or book chapters written by RAND authors but not available from RAND.
In addition to these numbered series, some RAND research is published in book form by other commercial or
academic presses or as articles in journals or other books.
Selected RAND Abstracts is divided into an index section and an abstract section.
INDEX SECTION
Each issue of SRA contains subject, author, and title indexes covering all the material abstracted in the current volume.
Subject Index. Each publication is indexed under one or more appropriate subjects. The lines that follow the
subject headings are titles. The publication number following the modifier refers the user to the abstract appearing in the
abstract section.
Author Index. The entries under the authors’ names give the numbers and titles of their publications abstracted
in this volume of SRA.
Title Index. Each title is followed by its document number.
ABSTRACT SECTION
vi
Abstracts are arranged serially by publication number. A complete serial list of publications included in this volume
appears immediately preceding the subject index.

Welfare Reform: Effects of a Decade
of Change. J. Grogger, L. A. Karoly. 2005.
During the 1990s the United States undertook the greatest
social policy reform since the Social Security Act of 1935.
In Welfare Reform: Effects of a Decade of Change,
Jeffrey Grogger and Lynn Karoly assemble evidence from
numerous studies, including nearly three dozen social
experiments, to assess how welfare reform has affected
behavior. To broaden our understanding of this wideranging policy reform, the authors evaluate the evidence in
relation to an economic model of behavior. The evidence
they collect reveals the trade-offs that policymakers face
in achieving the conflicting goals of promoting work,
reducing dependency, and alleviating need among the
poor. Finally, the authors identify numerous areas where
important gaps remain in our understanding of the effects
of welfare reform. The book will be a crucial resource for
policy economists, social policy specialists, other
professionals concerned with welfare policy, and students.

How Much Is Enough? Shaping the
Defense Program, 1961–1969. A. C. Enthoven, K. W.
Smith. 2005.
A work of enduring value and lasting relevance, this book
is both a classic account of the application of powerful
ideas to the problem of managing the Department of
Defense (DoD) and a cautionary history of the
controversies inspired by that successful effort. Robert S.
McNamara took office in 1961 convinced that the
Secretary of Defense, rather than the services, should
control the evaluation of military needs and should choose
among alternatives for meeting those needs. His device
was a new system for allocating defense resources, the
Planning, Programming, and Budgeting System (PPBS),
which was based on six fundamental ideas: (1) Decisions
should be based on explicit criteria of national interest, not
on compromises among institutional forces. (2) Needs and
costs should be considered simultaneously. (3) Major
decisions should be made by choices among explicit,
balanced, feasible alternatives. (4) The Secretary of
Defense should have an active analytic staff to provide
him with relevant data and unbiased perspectives. (5) A
multiyear force and financial plan should project the
consequences of present decisions into the future. (6)
Open and explicit analysis, available to all parties, should
form the basis for major decisions. Most of the decisions
that inspired great controversy in the 1960s are taken as
bedrock defense policy today, and the methods adopted
with such pain have become embedded as the DoD’s
approach to defining and resolving issues. This book was
originally published with the same title, New York, N.Y.,
Harper & Row, 1971, and includes a new foreword by
Kenneth J. Krieg and David S. C. Chu. Ordering

Understrength Air Force Officer Career
Fields: A Force Management Approach. L. A. Galway,
R. J. Buddin, M. R. Thirtle, P. S. H. Ellis, J. D. Mele.
2005.
Generating and projecting aerospace power in the 21st
century are technologically complex, requiring a myriad of
different skills. Recruiting, training, and retaining people
with the necessary mix of skills are major challenges for
the U.S. Air Force's personnel community. Many career
fields have been under strength for several years. This
condition, together with the recent sharp increases in
deployments (especially after the September 2001 attacks),
has resulted in "stressed" career fields: too much work for
too few people. This study's original charter was to
examine career fields that have been "chronically and
critically" under strength over time, and to look for root
causes and potential solutions. We initially pursued a casestudy approach, focusing on five varied career fields from
the set of non-rated line officers. Although each selected
career field had its own set of problems, the details of
those problems and potential solutions were widely known
to the managers. However, the managers had little or no
access to relevant policy levers, such as accession and
retention policy, which are the basic components of force
management. This systemic disconnect in force
management lies at the root of many of the current
understrength problems. After consulting with our
sponsor, the Air Force Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel
(AF/DP), we reoriented the project to develop an overall
framework for force management that would identify roles
and organizations that could provide analysis and
diagnosis of understrength conditions and could also
execute appropriate policy interventions to solve the
problems. Determination of personnel requirements,
accessions, retention, education and training, assignments,
and promotions must be managed closely and attentively,
189
and such management must be performed at three different
levels, which we denote by the familiar military terms of
tactical (assignments of individual officers and their
individual careers), operational (individual career fields, or
a set of closely related fields), and strategic (the total Air
Force workforce, including overall force size,
officer/enlisted and component mix, and the balance
between individual career fields). We contend that the root
of understrength problems is gaps in force management,
particularly at the operational and strategic levels, and that
operational-level force management is the key to force
management as a whole-providing both the policy
framework that guides tactical-level management and the
basic informational input for strategic-level decisions. Our
recommendation for the operational-level job is to make
the career field manager a full-time position and to put a
senior functional officer in the position, as well as
providing career field managers with dedicated and
standardized analytic support. Online access:

The United States, the European Union, Russia, and the
United Nations-along with Israel and the Palestinian
Authority-all officially support the establishment of an
independent Palestinian state. This study focuses on a
single analytical question: How can an independent
Palestinian state, if created, be made successful? This
book, a collaboration between two units of the RAND
Corporation-RAND Health and the RAND Center for
Middle East Public Policy-examines what it will take to
put the new state on the road to stability and economic,
political, and social prosperity over the first decade of its
independence. The authors examine options for
strengthening the governance of the new state and the
structures and processes that will ensure its public safety
and security. They describe approaches for promoting the
state's economic development, access to safe and adequate
supplies of water, health and health care, and education,
identifying ways that leverage Palestine's many strengths
and address the many challenges a new state will face.
Finally, the authors estimate the investment required over
the first ten years of statehood to help ensure security,
build infrastructure, and facilitate the success of the new
state. Online access: http://www.rand.org/publications/

The United States, the European Union, Russia, and the
United Nations-along with Israel and the Palestinian
Authority-all officially support the establishment of an
independent Palestinian state. This book summarizes
research conducted by the RAND Corporation from
September 2002 to September 2004 to develop
recommendations, based on rigorous analysis, about steps
that Palestinians, Israel, the United States, and the
international community could take to promote the success
of a new state if it is established. The first study identified
the requirements for a successful Palestinian state. The
study team surveyed a broad array of political, economic,
social, resource, and environmental challenges that a new
Palestinian state would face. They also estimated the
investment required over the first ten years of statehood to
help ensure security, build infrastructure, and facilitate the
success of the new state. The second study explored
options for addressing the housing, transportation, and
related infrastructure needs of a burgeoning Palestinian
population. The study explicitly considered issues related
to potential immigration to a new Palestinian state of a
substantial number of diaspora Palestinian refugees. The
research team developed initial cost estimates for
implementing their recommendations. The cost estimates
developed in these studies suggest that the funding
necessary to implement RAND's recommendations is
within the capacity of combined international resources
and private investors. RAND's analyses assume a peace
accord, but many of the recommendations in both studies
could be implemented constructively prior to Palestinian
independence. Readers in search of more information

Asbestos Litigation. S. J. Carroll, D. R.
Hensler, J. Gross, E. M. Sloss, M. Schonlau, A. F.
Abrahamse, J. S. Ashwood. 2005.
Asbestos litigation is the longest-running mass tort
litigation in U.S. history. Through 2002, approximately
730,000 individuals who had been exposed to asbestos
190
have brought claims against some 8,400 business entities,
and almost as many more future claims are likely.
Defendants and insurers have spent a total of $70 billion
on asbestos litigation through 2002, more than half of
which was consumed by claimants' and defendants'
litigation expenses. This monograph presents the most
comprehensive description to date of asbestos litigation. It
offers detailed analyses of asbestos litigation through 2002
and, in some respects, to summer 2004. The authors report
on what happened to those who have claimed injury from
asbestos, what happened to the defendants in those cases,
and how lawyers and judges have managed the cases, with
an overall focus on how the litigation system has been
performing in resolving asbestos claims. Online access:

Air Power Against Terror:
America's Conduct of Operation Enduring Freedom. B. S.
Lambeth. 2005.
The terrorist attacks of 9/11 plunged the United States into
a determined counteroffensive against Osama bin Laden
and his al Qaeda terrorist network. This report details the
initial U.S. military response to those attacks, namely, the
destruction of al Qaeda’s terrorist infrastructure and the
removal of the ruling Taliban regime in Afghanistan. It
first outlines the efforts of the Bush administration to
prepare for war, including pulling together an effective
coalition, crafting a war strategy, moving forces and
materiel to the region, forging alliances with indigenous
anti-Taliban elements in Afghanistan, laying the
groundwork for a target-approval process, and planning
for humanitarian relief operations. It then follows the
unfolding of Operation Enduring Freedom from its
beginning, starting with air strikes against Taliban early
warning radars, airfields, ground force facilities, and other
fixed targets. The author also explains how allied Special
Operations Forces (SOF) were successfully inserted into
Afghanistan and how those forces, enabled by U.S. air
power, were eventually able to work with indigenous
friendly Afghan fighters in defeating and routing the
Taliban. He then outlines problems that were later
encountered in Operation Anaconda- an initiative by U.S.
Army forces to push into the high mountains of
Afghanistan where hard-core al Qaeda holdouts were
known to be regrouping. This was to be a conventional
ground force operation, but unexpected resistance and
resultant fierce fighting required the emergency
summoning of fixed-wing air power. This air involvement
proved pivotal in producing a successful outcome and, in
hindsight, pointed to the failure of Operation Anaconda’s
planners to make the most of the potential synergy of air,
space, and land power that was available to them. The
author describes some of the friction and conflicts that
arose within U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) over
how best to use air power in the war. Perhaps the most
serious inefficiency had to do with strict rules of
engagement and a resultant target-approval bottleneck at
CENTCOM that often allowed many important but
fleeting attack opportunities to slip away. The author
emphasizes, however, several distinctive achievements in
this war, including the use of SOF-enabled precision
weapons that were effective irrespective of weather, the
first combat use of Predator unmanned aerial vehicles
armed with Hellfire missiles, and the integrated
employment of high-altitude drones and other air- and
space-based sensors that gave CENTCOM unprecedented
round-the-clock awareness of enemy activity. Online

A Preliminary Investigation
of Ship Acquisition Options for Joint Forcible Entry
Operations. R. W. Button, I. Blickstein, J. Gordon, P. A.
Wilson, J. Riposo. 2005.
In the global security environment of the future, sea basing
(loosely speaking, the ability to assemble, equip, and
support forces from sea platforms without relying on land
bases) will be critical to the Navy and Marine Corps'
ability to project-and sustain-forces ashore. With sea
basing, Marine combat power can build up more quickly
in a littoral area, and the need to move large amounts of
supplies ashore will be minimized. As such, sea basing
clearly will be useful in the event of joint forcible entry
operations (JFEOs). This monograph describes the global
environment in which JFEOs might occur and the role of
naval power in that environment. It also examines and
analyzes various options for substituting naval ships built
to commercial standards (so-called black hulls) for those
built to military specifications (so-called gray hulls) to
achieve cost savings or enhanced performance. Online

Urban Battle Command in the 21st
Century. R. W. Glenn, G. Kingston. 2005.
Urban areas are notorious for complicating operational
planning, command, control, and the communications that
facilitate the three. Frequent interruptions of line of sight
due to the prolificacy of man-made structures interfere
with radio and global positioning system signals. They
often combine with extreme noise, dust, smoke, and light
conditions to impede leader control at all echelons. The
density of noncombatants and their potentially crucial
influence on friendly force success further demand
effective employment and synchronization of
psychological operations, civil affairs, public affairs, and
other resources. Savvy use of existent systems, employing
decentralized control procedures, and innovation all have
their place in overcoming these inherent limitations in the
service of achieving objectives across the spectrum of
conflict. Online access: http://www.rand.org/publications/

Dissuading Terror: Strategic Influence
and the Struggle Against Terrorism. K. Cragin, S.
Gerwehr. 2005.
U.S. government decisionmakers face a number of
challenges as they attempt to form policies that aim to
dissuade terrorists from attacking the United States, divert
youths from joining terrorist groups, and persuade the
leaders of states and nongovernmental institutions to
withhold support for terrorists. The successes or failures of
such policies and campaigns have long-lasting effects.
This report attempts to help these decisionmakers see the
potential use of influence campaigns in the war on
terrorism. To do this, the authors gauge the lessons learned
from past U.S. operations, analyzing the "de-Nazification"
efforts of postwar Germany, the psychological operations
conducted during the Vietnam War, and the support of
anticommunist movements and resources in Poland
throughout the Cold War. Although stipulating that
influence campaigns are highly sensitive to their
respective operational environments, the authors arrive at
the following general guidelines for the use of persuasion
in the struggle against terrorism: match objectives,
message, and delivery to the audience; incorporate
feedback mechanisms in the planning stage; and set
realistic expectations. They then apply these guidelines to
three different types of audiences in the Muslim worldYemen, Indonesia, and diaspora communities in Germany.
The authors note that the use of strategic influence is not
and probably never will be a "silver bullet" to removing
the threat of terrorism; however, the research herein
should help bring U.S. decisionmakers closer in refining
how and in what circumstances such campaigns can best
be applied. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

California's K-12 Public Schools: How
Are They Doing? S. J. Carroll, C. S. Krop, J. Arkes, P. A.
Morrison, A. Flanagan. 2005.
California's public schools, once considered to be among
the nation's best, are now being questioned as to their
condition, performance, and ability to meet the needs of
the state's diverse student population. This report describes
the condition and performance of California's K-12 public
schools. It describes the schools' student population, the
resources provided to the schools (finances, teachers, and
facilities), and the schools' outcomes. In looking at the
outcomes, it first focuses on student academic
achievement, as measured by standardized tests, and then
turns to outcomes that schools may influence and that are
inadequately captured in test scores. These include both
educational attainment measures (high school graduation
and continuation on to college) and nonacademic measures
(teenage pregnancy, substance abuse, and delinquency).
The report analyzes trends within the state and compares
California to other states and to the nation as a whole.

Steeling the Mind: Combat Stress
Reactions and Their Implications for Urban Warfare. T.
C. Helmus, R. W. Glenn. 2005.
Combat stress casualties are not necessarily higher in city
operations than operations on other types of terrain.
Commanders and NCOs in the U.S. military should
develop the necessary skills to treat and prevent stress
casualties and understand their implications for urban
operations. Consequently, the authors provide an overview
of combat stress reaction (CSR) in the form of a review of
its known precipitants, its battlefield treatment, and the
preventive steps commanders can take to limit its extent
and severity. In addition, to enhance the understanding of
the risks that urban operations pose to the development of
CSR, the authors interviewed participants in former urban
operations and reviewed historical and contemporary
documents. Many of those interviewed suggest that urban
operations are inordinately stressful and that the risk of
CSR may be high. But historical data from the battles of
Brest, Manila, and Hue, as well as others, show no
evidence of increased rates of stress casualties. The
authors also review treatment and prevention steps from
the perspective of military operations on urbanized terrain.

Lessons from Operation Iraqi Freedom.
K. F. Lynch, J. G. Drew, R. S. Tripp, C. R. Roll. 2005.
Since 1997, RAND has studied options for configuring an
Agile Combat Support (ACS) system that would enable
the achievement of Air and Space Expeditionary Force
(AEF) goals. Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) offered an
opportunity to examine the implementation of new ACS
concepts in a wartime environment. In 2000, Project AIR
FORCE helped evaluate combat support lessons from
Joint Task Force Noble Anvil (JTF NA), the U.S.
component of Operation Allied Force, in Serbia. In 2002,
Project AIR FORCE evaluated combat support lessons
from Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), in Afghanistan.
Some of the concepts and lessons learned from JTF NA
and OEF were implemented in supporting OIF. Supporting
Air and Space Expeditionary Forces: Lessons from
Operation Iraqi Freedom presents an analysis of combat
support experiences associated with Operation Iraqi
Freedom, the war in Iraq, and compares these experiences
with those associated with JTF NA, in Serbia, and the first
100 days of OEF. The analysis offered an opportunity to
compare findings and implications from JTF NA, OEF,
and OIF. Its objectives were to indicate how combat
support performed in the OIF scenario; examine how ACS
concepts were implemented in OIF; and compare JTF NA,
OEF, and OIF experiences to determine similarities and
192
applicability of lessons across experiences and to
determine whether some experiences are unique to
particular scenarios. The report focuses on experiences
from OIF and what those experiences imply for combat
support system design to ensure that AEF goals can be
achieved. Combat support planning and execution (CSC2)
processes and command and control organizational
alignments have improved since JTF NA and OEF. The
implementation of pieces of the future, or TO-BE, CSC2
operational architecture aided in this development,
although integrating deliberate planning processes and
crisis planning activities requires more work. As well,
austere forward operation locations (FOLs) and an
immature theater infrastructure made early planning,
knowledge of the theater, and FOL preparation more
important. Survey information to develop FOLs was more
readily available during OIF because of other ongoing
operations in the region. The Commander, Air Combat
Command (ACC/CC), sponsored this research, which was
conducted in the Resource Management Program of
RAND's Project AIR FORCE, in coordination with the Air
Force Deputy Chief of Staff for Installations and Logistics
(AF/IL). The research for this report was completed in
August 2003. This report should be of interest to
logisticians, operators, and mobility planners throughout
the Department of Defense, especially those in the Air

Outsourcing and Outfitting Practices:
Implications for the Ministry of Defence Shipbuilding
Programmes. J. F. Schank, H. Pung, G. T. Lee, M. V.
Arena, J. L. Birkler. 2005.
The United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence (MOD) is
preparing for the construction of the Royal Navy's two
new Future Aircraft Carriers (CVFs), slated to enter
service in 2012 and 2015, respectively. The CVFs could
be the largest warships ever built in the United Kingdom.
But what will the best construction strategies be, and will
the UK workforce be able to meet the demands posed by
the CVF in addition to the Royal Navy's other ongoing
programmes? At the request of the MOD, the RAND
Corporation looked at the risks of current UK shipbuilding
practices and estimated the cost implications of using
alternative manufacturing options. The researchers
gathered information primarily via surveys sent to major
shipbuilders in the United Kingdom, the United States,
and across Europe. They find, generally, that UK
shipbuilders should continue to use their current
subcontracting practices but also take advantage of
standards such as those used in commercial outfitting in
the rest of Europe and Asia, which focus on installation
and assembly at the earliest possible construction phase.
The researchers also encourage MOD shipbuilding
programmes to identify subcontractors as early as possible
and to subsequently include them in the design process.

Insights and Strategies for
Improving Project Management in the United Kingdom's
Military Shipbuilding Industry. J. F. Schank, H. Pung, G.
T. Lee, M. V. Arena, J. L. Birkler, D. Rushworth, J.
Chiesa, J. Riposo, C. A. Grammich. 2005.
After a decade of reduced demand for naval ships, the
United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence (MOD) is
preparing to embark on an ambitious plan to modernize a
large portion of its fleet. This increase in naval
shipbuilding will present a challenge to the shipbuilding
industrial base, which consolidated and reduced resources
due to the decreased demand for naval ships and the loss
of a commercial market. With an eye to bettering the
processes of military shipbuilding, the MOD's Defence
Procurement Agency (DPA) asked the RAND Corporation
to look at ways in which the agency could gain insights
and understanding into shipbuilding issues with the aim of
strengthening project planning, promoting efficiencies,
and improving management. The series herein provides
insights and answers the following specific questions:
—How could greater use of advanced outfitting to reduce
shipyard workload and of outsourcing to expand the
organizations in the shipbuilding industrial base in the
Future Aircraft Carrier Programme increase the likelihood
of on-schedule completion of that and other DPA
programmes? —What metrics would keep DPA informed
on the progress towards completion of ship construction
projects and why do DPA funded programs tend to lag
commercial projects in on-time completion rates? —How
are military and commercial shipbuilding different, and
what are the implications for diversifying the UK
shipbuilding industry's customer base? These reports
should be of special interest not only to the DPA, but also
to service and defence agency managers and policymakers
involved in shipbuilding on both sides of the Atlantic. It
should also be of interest to shipbuilding industrial
executives in the United Kingdom.

Modeling Reserve Recruiting:
Estimates of Enlistments. J. Arkes, M. R. Kilburn. 2005.
Reserve components are increasingly being called upon to
provide support across the entire spectrum of military
operations and have been key to operations in Iraq and
Afghanistan. Therefore, the issue of their readiness is
critical for national military strategy. The authors examine
reserve recruiting and the likely challenges facing the
reserve components in the future. The authors make a
methodological contribution by separately examining
prior-service and non-prior-service recruits into the
reserves, with the justification that the two types of
recruits are typically at different stages of life and face
193
different choices. With an emphasis on non-prior-service
recruits, the authors estimate a model that incorporates the
simultaneous decisions of recruits to join the reserves,
active duty, or neither. The authors find that several
policy, demographic, and economic factors had sizeable
and significant effects on both active duty and reserve
recruiting. States with educational incentives for National
Guard members have higher numbers of both reserve and
active duty recruits. In general, at lower levels of recruiter
density, both active duty and reserve recruiting benefit
from the addition of another recruiter, but as the number of
recruiters rise, this benefit becomes successively smaller.
In addition, higher unemployment rates boosted both
reserve and active duty recruiting, and larger portions of
minority populations (including black and Hispanic) are
also strong predictors of recruiting success. The authors
examined other variables, including state rates of college
education, state tuition rates, varying characteristics of
civilian employers, and demand of home and family
activities on men's time. The authors found that new
approaches for models that estimate prior-service reserve
recruiting need to be developed that do not rely so heavily
on identifying a state for prior active duty members.

Improving the Army's Management of
Reparable Spare Parts. J. R. Folkeson, M. K. Brauner.
2005.
This report addresses initial efforts to expand the Army's
logistics-process improvement efforts initiative by
applying an integrative approach to improving the
responsiveness, reliability, and efficiency of the Army's
national-level inventory management and depot-level
component-repair processes. The goal of these processes is
to repair sufficient assets to replenish serviceable
inventories to meet the needs of requirements determined
to support equipment readiness. The examination of the
reparable-management process identified three key issues
that need to be addressed: (1) the impact of uncertainty
and variability in customer demands on long-term
planning forecasts; (2) the need for increased emphasis on
near-term replanning for execution; and (3) the inability of
repair responsiveness to meet changing requirements. A
case study of the M88A1 armored recovery vehicle engine
is used to illustrate the integrated process-improvement
approach, and a variety of alternatives for improving both
planning and repair activities are presented. It is suggested
that a pilot effort be undertaken to develop and test
alternative approaches to the implementation of
improvement initiatives. The results obtained in a pilot
implementation could be measured, rules could be
adjusted, and confidence would be developed in the
selected improvement approaches. Online access:

Alternative Futures and Army Force
Planning: Implications for the Future Force Era. B.
Nichiporuk. 2005.
To help the U.S. Army with force planning for the 2025
era, this study uses the tool of alternative futures analysis.
It bounds the future the Army will face by laying out a
representative spectrum of different "future worlds" that
hopefully illustrate the complete universe of future
missions. By mixing and matching possible trends across
five key areas (geopolitics, economics, demographics,
technology, and environment), six alternative futures are
created: "U.S. unipolarity" and "democratic peace" (best
cases), "major competitor rising" and "competitive
multipolarity" (medium-good cases), "transnational web"
(medium-bad case), and "chaos/anarchy" (worst case).
After explaining the main features of each future, the
study creates an appropriate "Army type" for each,
through a three-step process: (1) a representative combat
scenario was created for each future, (2) the strategies-totasks methodology was used to set out the raw capabilities
needed for a given scenario, and (3) the force
characteristics and size required to meet the needs
presented in the capability statements were formulated. All
the needed characteristics were then bundled together to
form a basic Army type for a given future. The report
concludes with a review and discussion of the common
desired characteristics found across the six types. Online

2005.
Community leaders in the Pittsburgh region have long
recognized the critical importance of the health and wellbeing of mothers, infants, and young children and have
made intensive efforts to develop effective communitybased early childhood interventions and support services.
Despite these efforts, in several key areas, mothers and
young children in this community are not receiving the
health care services they need, and the result is premature
illness and preventable death. In 2002, The Heinz
Endowments commissioned the RAND Corporation and
the University of Pittsburgh, in partnership with the
Department of Health and Department of Human Services
in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, to establish a learning
collaborative of local stakeholders to (1) catalyze new
thinking around the best evidence and practice for
maternal and child health care; (2) assess the strengths,
weaknesses, and barriers to improvement in the current
system; (3) identify targets for local policy reform; and (4)
develop a blueprint for action. This report provides an
overview of the community-based approach through

which this work was undertaken, highlights key study
findings, and outlines a vision, strategy, and action plan
for achieving systemwide improvements in maternal and

American Public Support for U.S. Military
Operations from Mogadishu to Baghdad. E. V. Larson, B.
Savych. 2005.
The support of the American public is widely held to be a
critical prerequisite for undertaking military action abroad.
This monograph examines American public opinion about
the use of military force in support of the global war on
terrorism (GWOT). Its purpose is to describe public
attitudes toward wars and other large military operations
over the last decade, to delineate the sources of support
and opposition for each war or operation, to identify the
principal fault lines in support, and to illuminate the
factors that are consistent predictors of support for and
opposition to military operations. Although the focus is on
public opinion toward U.S. military operations in
Afghanistan, Iraq, and other GWOT-related theaters of
action, the authors also examine public opinion on a
number of military operations conducted before the attacks
of September 11, 2001, including the final stages of the
U.S. military intervention in Somalia and the U.S.
interventions in Haiti, Bosnia, and Kosovo. Online access:

Monitoring the Progress of
Shipbuilding Programmes: How Can the Defence
Procurement Agency More Accurately Monitor Progress?
M. V. Arena, J. L. Birkler, J. F. Schank, J. Riposo, C. A.
Grammich. 2005.
As part of the annual assessment of its large projects, the
Defence Procurement Agency (DPA), part of the UK
Ministry of Defence, measures 'slippage'-the delay
between a promised in-service date and the actual or
projected in-service date. In response to the slippage of
some recent shipbuilding programmes, the DPA asked
RAND to analyze how major shipbuilders and contractors
monitor programme progress, to consider what
information would be useful for shipbuilders to provide
the agency,and to understand why ships are delivered late
and why commercial shipbuilders maintain a much better
schedule performance than do military builders. The
researchers surveyed major US, UK, and other European
shipbuilders and found that earned value management was
the more common method used to monitor progress. From
this and other metrics and procedures observed, the
researchers recommend that the DPA consider adapting
some of the current commercial practices, including
incentives for on-time deliveries and the use of on-site
representatives to quickly resolve late decision changes.
The implementation of such recommendations could
reduce cost and improve schedule performance. Online

Differences Between Military and
Commercial Shipbuilding: Implications for the United
Kingdom's Ministry of Defence. J. L. Birkler, D.
Rushworth, J. Chiesa, H. Pung, M. V. Arena, J. F. Schank.
2004.
In the United Kingdom, the shipbuilding industry is
sustained largely by the government's purchases of naval
and naval auxiliary vessels. The desire for a continuing
efficient and robust shipbuilding industry has prompted
the UK Ministry of Defence to ask: Can the United
Kingdom's shipbuilding industry compete more broadly in
commercial or foreign military markets? The prospects for
broadening UK shipyards' customer base appear to be
poor. The United Kingdom would face strong competitors
in attempting to re-enter the commercial shipbuilding
market. Japan and South Korea dominate the market for
ships of low and moderate complexity, mostly cargo ships
and tankers of varying types. EU shipyards dominate the
market for more-complex ships such as passenger vessels,
although that market segment is also under pressure from
Asian shipbuilders. The United Kingdom certainly has a
stronger industrial base to support military sales than it
does in the commercial arena, but the match between most
current UK military ship products and global demand is
not a close one. The military export market is largely a
market for modestly priced frigates and small
conventionally powered attack submarines. It is not clear
that a UK shipyard could build a conventional submarine
at a competitive price; UK warships are, in general, too
sophisticated and expensive to make them interesting to
potential importers. Furthermore, export contracts often
require that most ships in an order be built in the importing
country, thus limiting the benefit such sales may have for
the exporter's construction workforce. Online access:

Options for Reducing Costs in the
United Kingdom's Future Aircraft Carrier (CVF)
Programme. J. F. Schank, R. J. Yardley, J. Riposo, H.
Thie, E. G. Keating, M. V. Arena, H. Pung, J. L. Birkler, J.
R. Chiesa. 2005.
In 2012 and 2015, respectively, the United Kingdom's
Ministry of Defence (MOD) will replace its three
Invincible-class aircraft carriers with two Future Aircraft
Carriers (CVFs), the largest ships ever constructed for the
Royal Navy. In preparation for this project, the MOD
asked RAND to look at the economic implications,
schedule impact, and technical risks of adopting new
technologies and alternative manufacturing options. The
research described in this report, based on the design and
manning data available at the time, focuses on possible
reductions in whole-life costs and manpower requirements
195
of the carriers. Concerning reduced acquisition costs-based
on figures from various cost analysis models-the
researchers suggest options such as using construction
practices from the commercial shipbuilding industry plus
commercial systems and equipment in place of military
standard equipment wherever there is no adverse impact
on operations or safety. Regarding personnel cost savings
and complement-reducing initiatives, the researchers look
towards the practices of private-sector shipbuilding
companies and of navies around the globe. Based on this
analysis, they recommend, for example, promoting a
cross-trained workforce with broad skills and using
civilians to augment the ship's crew for nonwarfare
responsibilities. Options for reducing the complement
examine the trade-offs of increased up-front investments
in technology with the corresponding manpower
reductions. As the CVF Integrated Project Team continues
to explore its many options, the researchers remain
optimistic that, given several factors indicated, the CVF's
targets can be reached. Online access: http://www.

Aging Aircraft Repair-Replacement
Decisions with Depot-Level Capacity as a Policy Choice
Variable. E. G. Keating, D. Synder, M. C. Dixon, E. N.
Loredo. 2005.
Continuing a sequence of RAND Corporation reports
considering aging aircraft and the decision whether to
repair or to replace them, this report presents a model of
the repair-replace decision and data describing the C-5A
cargo aircraft. In the report, the authors examine the
decision whether to modify or retire the C-5A fleet. They
also extend the modeling approach to evaluate prospective
investment in additional depot-level capacity. The study's
preliminary conclusions are that the C-5A's planned
reliability enhancement and re-engining program
modification is worthwhile if it occurs soon, as are
investments in its depot-level capacity. The U.S. Air Force
highly values an available C-5A year. Hence, the model is
averse to large-scale queuing and delay in the C-5A
maintenance system. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

Making Out-of-School-Time Matter:
Evidence for an Action Agenda. S. J. Bodilly, M. Beckett.
2005.
A loosely connected set of providers, clients, sponsors,
and intermediaries make up the local markets referred to
as the out-of-school-time (OST) field. This field and the
actors in it have been evolving in response to shifts in the
economy, the growing demand for services associated
with increased numbers of working mothers in the labor
force, concerns over youth development or the lack
thereof, and increased academic expectations for youth
programs. This report presents the findings of a broad-
ranging literature review intended to identify, frame, and
assess relevant OST issues. Drawing on recent studies the
authors provide an objective view of the politicized debate
over the future of the field. They identify and address the
level of demand for OST services, the effectiveness of
offerings, what constitutes quality in OST programs, how
to encourage participation, and how to build further
community capacity. The report provides
recommendations for improving the current debate

Unexploded Ordnance Cleanup Costs:
Implications of Alternative Protocols. J. MacDonald, C.
Mendez. 2005.
With continued military downsizing and base closures,
cleanup of unexploded ordnance (UXO) at former
weapons ranges has become one of the most costly
environmental problems the military faces. This study
examines cost estimation for UXO remediation conducted
at closed military installations, the difficulties of
accurately estimating cleanup costs, and the major effects
that different cleanup requirements and methods can have
on cost. It assesses previous estimates of UXO cleanup
costs and evaluates the strengths and limitations of the
military's preferred cost-estimation tool, the remedial
Action Cost Engineering Requirements (RACER)
software package. Using a modified method of
implementing RACER, the study shows how costs change
depending on which cleanup protocol is followed. The
results show that the choice of cleanup protocol has major
cost implications. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

Military Reengineering Between the
World Wars. B. D. Steele. 2005.
This study analyzes the contrasting military responses of
various militaries to the internal combustion engine
between World War I and World War II. The Italian,
British, and American armies adopted the tank but left
basic military processes intact. The French army, virtually
all of the naval forces, and the U.S. Army Air Corps
changed their processes (i.e., reengineered) but based their
work on fallacious strategic assumptions. The Red Army,
the German Wehrmacht, and the U.S. Marine Corps,
despite relatively successful reengineering attempts,
discovered serious shortfalls when their new forces were
exposed to combat but were able to use feedback to
correct the errors of their peacetime reengineering efforts.
For the Germans, however, such feedback came too late to
avoid catastrophic defeat. Five conditions are necessary
for successful military reengineering: a willingness to
exploit new technological opportunities systematically; the
ability to anticipate and prepare for the range of future
strategic demands; securing sufficient resources (financial,
196
material, and human) for the reengineering process-both
externally from civilian political authorities and internally
from the military ranks; the ability to balance the skilled,
traditional warrior and the scientific or rational analyst;
and the ability to objectively diagnose weaknesses in the
reengineered processes and to proceed to correct them
expeditiously. The countries' experiences have lessons for
modern-day efforts to transform U.S. military forces.

Examining Gaps in Mathematics
Achievement Among Racial Ethnic Groups, 1972–1992.
M. Berends, S. R. Lucas, T. Sullivan, R. J. Briggs. 2005.
As schools in the United States become more output
driven, students, educators, administrators, and
policymakers are being held accountable for improving the
academic achievement of all students. Federal education
policy now mandates that states, districts, and schools
monitor achievement gaps among students of different
socioeconomic, racial-ethnic, and language groups. This
book examines several nationally representative senior
high school student cohorts between the early 1970s to
early 1990s to understand trends in the mathematics scores
of these different racial-ethnic groups, and analyzes how
changes in family, school, and schooling measures help
explain changes in the test score gaps over time. The
authors find that there were positive changes in some
socioeconomic family background characteristics for black
and Latino students, helping them narrow the gap with
white students. Moreover, although there were few
positive changes between schools, the within-school
experiences of black and Latino students changed for the
better compared with white students when measured by
student self-reported academic track placement. Despite
some beneficial changes for black and Latino students,
inequalities persist. The authors point out the possibilities
of various policies that address improving the
socioeconomic and educational opportunities of students.
Policymakers should think in more creative, coordinated,
and comprehensive ways if the nation is to more
effectively address student achievement gaps. Online

Evaluation of California’s Permanent
Disability Rating System. R. T. Reville, S. A. Seabury, F.
Neuhauser, J. F. Burton, M. R. Greenberg. c2005.
The process for evaluating the severity of permanent
disabilities due to workplace injuries for the purpose of
determining workers' compensation benefits has long been
a matter of considerable controversy in California. The
state's disability rating system has been criticized as being
inconsistent and prone to promote disputes over the
appropriate level of permanent disability benefits. This
monograph follows up on an earlier interim briefing on
California's permanent disability rating schedule. Here, the
authors provide a systematical evaluation of California's
permanent disability ratings system that was used prior to
the state's 2004 workers' compensation reform efforts.
They examine the extent to which workers with higher
disability ratings experience higher earnings losses, and
the extent to which workers with similar ratings for
impairments in different parts of the body experience
similar earnings losses. Among other analyses, they
examine the consistency with which physicians evaluate
the same injuries. They discuss the implication of these
results, for California and potentially for other states, with
a focus on interpreting the results in light of the recent
reforms. Online access: http://www.rand.org/publications/

Modernizing China's Military:
Opportunities and Constraints. K. Crane, R. Cliff, E. S.
Medeiros, J. C. Mulvenon, W. H. Overholt. 2005.
To help the U.S. Air Force assess the resources the
government of the People's Republic of China is likely to
spend on its military over the next two decades, this study
projects future growth in Chinese government
expenditures as a whole and the military in particular,
evaluates the current and likely future capabilities of
China's defense industries, and compares likely future
Chinese expenditures on defense with recent expenditures
by the United States and the U.S. Air Force. Although
economic growth in China is destined to slow, output will
still triple by 2025. In addition, government reforms hold
the promise of improving the weak performance of China's
defense industries. Although the researchers' high-end
forecast of military expenditures is based on the
assumption that the Chinese government would be able to
spend 5.0 percent of GDP on defense, they believe that
197
pressures within China to increase social spending on
health care, pensions, education, and the environment,
coupled with the costs of paying the Chinese government's
liabilities, make it more likely that military spending will
not rise above 2.3 percent of GDP. Using a combination of
projected market and purchasing power parity exchange
rates, the authors forecast that Chinese military spending is
likely to rise from an estimated $69 billion in 2003 to $185
billion by 2025-approximately 61 percent of what the
Department of Defense spent in 2003. Online access:

Success of First-Term Soldiers: The
Effects of Recruiting Practices and Recruit Characteristics.
R. J. Buddin. 2005.
This monograph examines the relationship between
recruiting practices and conditions and the first-term
success of Army soldiers. Success in the first term is
important to the Army because recruiting soldiers is
expensive. If soldiers fail to complete their first terms, the
Army must recruit others to replace them, effectively
doubling the cost. Given the expense of recruiting, the
Army should reassess whether some management
strategies could improve the success rates for first-term
soldiers. Events in a soldier's first term that show a
statistically significant relation to early loss include length
of time in the Delayed Entry Program, gender (women
have consistently higher rates of attrition at each stage of
the first enlistment), and education (soldiers without high
school diplomas drop out at an increased rate beginning
with advanced individual training). Attrition can also vary
depending on the training installation, but high loss rates
during basic training have no effect on subsequent
attrition. Thus, it does not appear that applying higher
standards in basic training reduces subsequent attrition in
the enlistment cohort. All other things being equal,
soldiers in combat arms have higher attrition rates than do
those in other occupations. Finally, promotion correlates
positively with retention. Equally interesting are the
influences that do not appear to make a major difference.
These include participation in the Army College Fund,
term of enlistment, the recruiting environment, and
characteristics of recruiters. Recommendations include
shorter time in the Delayed Entry Program for high school
seniors, a revisiting of the fitness training unit concept,
and imposition of consistent training standards and
policies. The monograph also recommends exploring
policies to help at-risk demographic groups such as
women and recruits who hold GEDs, as well as a review
of the promotion program to ensure that the most able
soldiers are getting promoted. Online access:

Study: The Stryker Brigade Combat Team. D. R.
Gonzales, M. P. Johnson, J. McEver, D. Leedom, G.
Kingston, M. S. Tseng. 2005.
The authors of this report seek to understand how
network-centric operations (NCO) capabilities are a source
of combat power for the Army's Stryker brigade and to
determine the extent to which the tenets of NCO are
realized by the unit. Using a broad range of measures of
effectiveness, the authors compared the performance of a
Stryker brigade with that of a nondigitized light infantry
brigade in certification exercises at the Joint Readiness
Training Center and found that the Stryker brigade's
superior networking capabilities, superior shared
situational awareness, speed of command, and ability to
control the speed of command vastly improved the
brigade's performance in these exercises. Using NCO
measures of effectiveness, this analysis shed light on the
NCO capabilities that made the Stryker brigade a more
agile and effective combat force. The authors conclude by
discussing the potential implications of future NCO
capabilities for future Army forces. Online access:

The Link 16 communications system enables networkcentric operations (NCO) in ways that voice-only
communications cannot. How does Link 16 increase the
mission effectiveness of U.S. air forces in combat translate
into success in the air-to-air battle? More than 12,000
sorties were flown in the Joint Tactical Information
Distribution System Operational Special Project, where
Link 16 and voice-only communications systems were
evaluated. Using a series of NCO performance metrics, the
authors measured results and determined which areas were
improved by the use of Link 16 and by how much
compared to the voice-only system. They employed the
NCO Conceptual Framework to assess the results of the
project and found the framework's inference chains
consistent with the observations of experienced pilots. The
almost threefold increase in force effectiveness with the
Link 16 shows the merits of the system and NCO
concepts. The authors conclude that further case studies
should be conducted to examine more complex mission
areas and provide further understanding of NCO concepts.

Software Cost Estimation and Sizing
Methods: Issues, and Guidelines. S. L. Pfleeger, F. Wu,
R. Lewis. 2005.
Accurate estimates of the software cost are a critical part
of effective program management, particularly for large,
198
complex systems. Predicting the cost of software has
evolved, but the practice of cost prediction is far from
perfect. Military and commercial programs alike are
replete with examples of software cost estimates that differ
significantly from the actual costs at completion. Software
Cost Estimation and Sizing Methods: Issues and
Guidelines recommends an approach to improving the
utility and accuracy of software cost estimates by exposing
uncertainty (in understanding the project) and reducing the
risks associated with developing the estimates. The
approach focuses on characteristics of the estimation
process (such as which methods and models are most
appropriate for a given situation) and the nature of the data
used (such as software size). It describes risks in each of
these factors in terms of symptoms and warning signs, and
mitigation strategies for each. The techniques described in
this report are based on a literature review and on analysis
of software estimation and risk, in addition to general
lessons and guidance adapted from selected programs.
This report should be of particular interest to those
organizations or agencies that use software estimates in
the planning, budgeting, developing, or purchasing of
software-intensive systems. It should also be of value to
those involved in research and analysis of estimation
models and techniques. Online access: http://www.

Policy Measure and Their Effectiveness. R. Hamer, E.
Frinking, E. Horlings, S. Simmons. 2005.
RAND Europe has performed a study for the Dutch
Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. This study
aims to increase the understanding regarding the influence
of societal developments and policy initiatives on the
attractiveness and uptake of science and technology in
higher education. This study consists of an international
comparison across six European countries, examining how
students make decisions about entering a certain study and
assessing whether and how policies are addressing
these factors. The report concludes with a set of
recommendations to improve the low uptake of S&T in

An Assessment of Air Force Data on
Contract Expenditures. L. S. Dixon, C. Shirley, L. H.
Baldwin, J. A. Ausink, N. Campbell. c2005.
For the past several years, the U.S. Air Force has been
using data from the Individual Contracting Action Report
form, also known as the DD350, to analyze its goods and
services expenditures. This analysis is part of the Air
Force's efforts to develop new purchasing and supply
management strategies for important categories of goods
and services. For this study, the authors collected data
from Air Force contracting officers on a sample of fiscal
year 2002 (FY02) DD350 records to assess the adequacy
and accuracy of DD350 data for conducting expenditure
analyses. The authors then extrapolated their findings from
the sample to reflect all Air Force FY02 DD350 contract
actions. Among other findings, the authors determined that
the Product Service Codes (PSCs) used in the DD350
forms are not detailed enough to capture the full range of
various goods and services purchased by the Air Force and
the PSCs for nearly 50 percent of contract actions are
coded inaccurately. Online access: http://www.rand.

Lessons Learned from the F/A-22 and
F/A-18 E/F Development Programs. O. Younossi, D. E.
Stem, M. A. Lorell, F. M. Lussier. 2005.
How can the Air Force and the other services profit from
the experience of these two very different development
programs? The F/A-18E/F is a new platform, but it
incorporates some of the key components of the legacy
platform. The F/A-22, on the other hand, is completely
new, but the authors believe the divergent histories of the
two-the F/A-22 has been delayed 52 months and has
experienced cost overruns while the F/A-18E/F was
developed on time and on budget-have lessons to teach
future acquisition decisionmakers. In this report, the
authors present a detailed history of the two programs and
conclude that these decisionmakers can take several steps
to reduce risk and improve the acquisition process,
including setting realistic schedule and cost estimates,
establishing a stable and experienced development team,
being aware of the risks entailed in concurrent
development of new technology, and carefully monitoring
airframe weight. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

Implementation of the Diabetes Practice
Guideline in the Army Medical Department: Final
Evaluation. D. Farley, G. Vernez, K. J. Dolter, S. Pieklik,

In partnership with the Army Medical Department
(AMEDD), RAND researchers have been working to
implement clinical practice guidelines in treatment of three
common ailments (diabetes, asthma, and low back pain).
This report is an evaluation of the diabetes practice
guideline demonstration. It documents the extent to which
intended actions were implemented, assesses short-term
effects on clinical practices, and measures the quality and
limitations of available data for monitoring practice
improvements and clinical outcomes. The authors found
that, although the implementation scored some notable
successes, resource limitations and organizational barriers
curbed overall progress. They conclude that allowing for
flexibility, providing adequate resources, and learning
from experience are the keys to implementing practice

Risk Management and Performance in the
Balkans Support Contract. V. A. Greenfield, F. A. Camm.
2005.
Is the Army getting what it needs and managing risks
appropriately in its combat service support contracts? This
report uses the Army's Balkans Support Contract and a
continuous risk-management framework to answer these
questions. On the basis of this case study, the authors
conclude that the Army has been getting what it needs,
though it might, at times, be bearing too much cost-related
risk, and that few risks arise directly from the use of
contractors. They also see a need for more training for the
Army's contracting personnel to better plan, coordinate,
and manage contracts. Online access: http://www.rand.

Building a Multinational Global
Navigation Satellite System: An Initial Look. R. Lewis,
M. Kennedy, E. Ghashghai, G. Bitko. 2005.
The European Union plans to have its positioning,
navigation, and timing (PNT) system, Galileo, in initial
operation in 2008. As envisioned, Galileo will function
and perform similarly to the U.S. Global Positioning
System (GPS), the preeminent PNT system now in
existence. Policy leaders and technical experts have been
attempting to find cooperative ways to provide users with
the benefits of both systems in the future, but there is
concern about the kinds of effects the existence of this
new system may have on U.S. economic and security
interests. The authors concentrate on the economic impact
of competition and cooperation that could result from the
implementation and operation of Galileo in the presence of
GPS. The competitive environment is defined in terms of
system interoperability and/or compatibility, strategies that
could be used to foster Galileo adoption, and schedules for
GPS modernization and Galileo development. The
cooperative environment is characterized as variation on
the competitive environment. Information for the study
was gathered through literature reviews, discussions with
domain experts, and industry surveys. Recommendations
for the United States to consider now in anticipation of
Galileo becoming a reality are offered. Online access:

Just Cause or Just Because?
Prosecution and Plea-Bargaining Resulting in Prison
Sentences on Low-Level Drug Charges in California and
Arizona. K. J. Riley, N. Rodriguez, G. K. Ridgeway, D.
Barnes-Proby, T. Fain, N. G. Forge, V. Webb, L. J.
Demaine. 2005
In recent years, Arizona and California overwhelmingly
passed ballot initiatives that were expected to divert minor,
nonviolent drug offenders from incarceration-jail and
prison-to treatment. With respect to the prison population,
it was unknown whether low-level drug offenders had a
violent or lengthy criminal history that made prosecutors
reluctant to drop the low-level drug charge, whether the
quantity or type of drug involved influenced the
prosecution pattern, and whether there were differences
across racial groups in the prosecution of low-level drug
offenders. This study was designed to fill those knowledge
gaps. The evidence from the period before the
implementation of the initiatives supports prosecutors'
hypotheses that offenders sent to prison on low-level drug
charges generally had more severe criminal histories, were
involved with harder drugs, or were caught with
substantial quantities. The report's findings also show that
marijuana offenders are not first- or second-time offenders
and are not treated more "harshly" or more "leniently"
than other drug offenders. The authors generally found no
differences in treatment of racial/ethnic groups, though in
some cases small sample sizes made it difficult to reach
definitive conclusions. Plea-bargaining for prison-bound
low-level drug offenders appears to be used in a manner
consistent with prosecutorial practices aimed at
incarcerating drug offenders who are perceived to present
a greater threat to the community. Online access:

Modernizing the U.S. Aircraft Carrier
Fleet: Accelerating CVN 21 Production Versus Mid-Life
Refueling. J. F. Schank, G. K. Smith, B. Alkire, M. V.
Arena, J. L. Birkler, J. R. Chiesa, E. G. Keating, L.
Schmidt. 2005.
As the Navy builds the last of its Nimitz-class carriers, it
asked RAND to study the trade-offs involved in
accelerating the production of its new CVN 21 carrier
while hastening the retirement of some of the Nimitz fleet.
What are the trade-offs involved in terms of cost,
capability, and fleet size? RAND researchers looked at the
Navy's existing plan and compared it with several
alternatives and discovered that the Navy could modernize
its fleet with the higher-performance, lower-cost CVN 21
at a cost premium no greater than 12 percent over its
current plan. Allowing for the CVN's greater capability
might permit the Navy to justify a smaller fleet size while
it modernizes, and aggressive cost-cutting moves could
reduce the cost premium significantly. The authors find no
industrial base impediments to accelerating the program
and conclude that the importance the Navy attaches to the
increased fleet value premium should determine whether
the increased cost is a good investment. Online access:

Portrait of the Visual Arts: Meeting
the Challenges of a New Era. K. F. McCarthy, E. H.
Ondaatje, A. C. Brooks, A. Szanto. 2005.
The third in a series that examines the state of the arts in
America, this analysis shows, in addition to lines around
the block for special exhibits, well-paid superstar artists,
flourishing university visual arts programs, and a global
expansion of collectors, developments in the visual arts
also tell a story of rapid, even seismic change, systemic
imbalances, and dislocation. Using the performing arts as
a comparison, this book shows that the visual arts appear
better suited to the changing consumption and life styles of
American consumers. Their visual character, for example,
makes them easily and readily experienced. They require
less time commitment than other art forms and their
appreciation can be tailored to Americans’ patterns of
leisure consumption. But is the current picture as rosy as
rising attendance figures and art price indices suggest?
And will this success continue into the future? Using a
systemwide approach to examine the visual arts in the
context of the broader arts environment and to identify the
major challenges they face, this book examines the
possible answers to these questions. Earlier books in the
series include The Performing Arts in a New Era (MR1367-PCT, 2001) and From Celluloid to Cyberspace: The

Reexamining Military Acquisition
Reform: Are We There Yet? C. H. Hanks, E. I. Axelband,
S. Lindsay, R. Malik, B. D. Steele. 2005.
In the Department of Defense, 63 distinct acquisition
reform (AR) initiatives were undertaken in the 1989–2002
period. This monograph classifies the initiatives according
to various criteria: basic AR theme; relationship to
acquisition functions; Army recognition; coverage in the
DoD 5000 series; relationship to Under Secretary
Aldridge's five goals; coverage in Defense Acquisition
University curricula; and relationship to industry
attractiveness and return-on-investment models. The
analysis made use of interviews with industry and Army
Program Management personnel, who were asked: What
has been good about acquisition reform? What has been
bad? What would you change? In general, industry and
Army Program Management personnel acknowledge that
some good has come from some AR initiatives, but they
argue that many serious structural and cultural
impediments still remain that hinder the ability of the
acquisition process to deliver desired outcomes in terms of
cost, schedule, and performance. Online access:

Increasing Participation in Army
Continuing Education: EArmyU and Effects of Possible
Program Changes. B. R. Orvis, L. L. McDonald, B.
Raymond, F. Wu. 2005.
The eArmyU continuing education program allows
enlisted soldiers to earn college credits while on active
duty. This study sought to determine how to make
eArmyU available to more individuals while controlling
program costs. Historically, the primary cost of eArmyU
had been attributed to the laptop computer provided
through the program. This study examined the effects of
the existing eArmyU program and of removing the laptop
or other provisions on outcomes including soldiers'
participation in the program, retention, duty performance,
and quality of life. Four analytical approaches were used:
a pilot test of alternative eArmyU programs, focus groups
at pilot test sites, analysis of personnel records of enrollees
and nonenrollees in eArmyU, and an educational interest
and career plans survey of 8,000 enlisted soldiers. Those
especially likely to enroll in eArmyU include: African
Americans, females, AFQT Category I-IIIA soldiers,
married soldiers, soldiers with dependents, and senior
soldiers. The fully funded laptop is an important element
underlying soldiers' participation in eArmyU; without it,
eArmyU participation rates and the retention benefits of
eArmyU are likely to decline significantly. Personnel
records indicate that the current eArmyU program is
associated with increased retention: eArmyU participants
have one year longer to their ETS date than
demographically similar nonparticipants and 25 to 30
percent of participants extend or reenlist to participate.
Study recommendations include ways to achieve the goals
of increasing enlisted access to education opportunities,
constraining eArmyU costs, and limiting soldiers' risk of
recoupment. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

The United Kingdom's Naval
Shipbuilding Industrial Base: The Next Fifteen Years. M.
V. Arena, H. Pung, C. R. Cook, J. P. Marquis, J. Riposo,
G. T. Lee. 2005.
The United Kingdom has many contracted and prospective
naval shipbuilding programmes on the horizon over the
next two decades, ranging from the Astute-class attack
submarine to the Future Aircraft Carrier (CVF). The UK
Ministry of Defence (MOD) wants to know whether the
United Kingdom's existing naval shipbuilding industrial
base will be able to meet the requirements of the MOD's
future acquisition plan. Using extensive surveys and a
breadth of data, RAND researchers looked at the capacity
of the UK naval shipbuilding industrial base and how
alternative acquisition requirements, programmes, and
schedules might affect this capability. Using the MOD's
current plan, they focused on its potential impact in the
areas of labour, facilities, and supplier demand. Overall,
the researchers find that, using the 2004 planning
assumptions, the overlap of certain large programmes
201
would cause a near-term peak in workload demand,
followed by a steady decline. To minimise such
inconsistencies, they suggest that the MOD in the near
term consider, among other options, shifting the
scheduling of the labour demand (known as "levelloading"); reexamining the current UK Defence Industrial
Policy to allow non-UK firms to meet peak demand; and
using alternative facilities to assist major construction
during peak workload times. For the long term, the
researchers recommend, among other alternatives, that the
MOD make long-term industrial planning outlooks of this
report's nature a regular occurrence, define an appropriate
role for the United Kingdom's supporting offshore
industry, and explore the advantages of interoperable
technologies for sharing design work. Online access:

How Should the Army Use Contractors on
the Battlefield? Assessing Comparative Risk in Sourcing
Decisions. F. A. Camm, V. A. Greenfield. 2005.
Can the Army improve the way it measures the risks of
using civilian contractors in combat? This report proposes
a method for comparing the "residual risks" of using
military and contract sources to perform specific support
activities on the battlefield. It applies the Army's standard
approach to risk assessment, which identifies sources of
risk, or "threat"; the risks the threats present; the
opportunities to mitigate these risks; and the risk that
remains-the residual risk-when the Army chooses a
particular course of action to mitigate risks. The approach
considers choices of military and contract sources, with
appropriate mitigation strategies, as alternative courses of
action and compares the residual risks associated with
each choice. The approach offers an orderly way to
translate relative inherent capabilities of military and
contract sources, terms of applicable status-of-forces
agreements, and threats at any particular place and time on
the battlefield into a comparison of the residual risks
associated with military outcomes, the safety of contract
personnel, resource costs, and other policy factors of
greatest importance outside a particular contingency
setting. Online access: http://www.rand.org/publications/

Air Force Procurement: Approaches for
Measurement and Management. L. H. Baldwin, J. A.
Ausink, N. Nicosia. 2005.
This research is based on a series of interviews with
commercial sector purchasing professionals who are
respected by their peers for their successful creation and
implementation of what are widely accepted as best
purchasing and supply management practices, particularly
in the area of service acquisitions. The authors also
examine such practices through conference participation
and a review of the business literature. They find that
commercial firms rely on results-oriented metrics that
focus on how acquisition activities support corporate
objectives to manage their service acquisition activities.
While not a commercial firm, the Air Force can learn from
commercial firms' experiences in managing its service
acquisitions. The authors recommend a balanced portfolio
of performance metrics for the Air Force based on the five
major categories of results-oriented metrics that appeared
most often in their research: cost, quality, supplier
satisfaction, implementation of new initiatives, and special
interest items. Commercial firms indicated that in addition
to the results-oriented metrics, internal management
metrics that track internal customer satisfaction, personnel
training and retention, and ethics violations are also
important. Selected metrics are reported to top-level
executives on a regular basis. Online access:

Beyond Close Air Support: Forging a
New Air-Ground Partnership. B. Pirnie, A. Vick, A.
Grissom, K. P. Mueller, D. T. Orletsky. 2005.
Recent operations in Afghanistan and Iraq have
reawakened interest in the close air support (CAS) mission
and have led to new efforts to improve the integration of
air power and land power. The Army increasingly views
air power as indispensable to its future warfighting
concepts; the Air Force acknowledges the increasing
importance of counterland operations but wants to ensure
that air power's unique flexibility and versatility are not
lost in efforts to provide on-call fires to ground forces.
Whether air power or land power should predominate
depends on the situation. In particular situations, either
might predominate, and their relationship is likely to shift
over the course of a campaign. This report examines
alternative approaches to integrating air and land power,
addressing three major policy questions: (1) How should
air attack and ground maneuver be integrated? (2) How
should the terminal attack control function be executed?
(3) How should ground maneuver/fires and air attack be
deconflicted? The study recommends that the Army and
the Air Force work together to develop new concepts and
technologies to enhance the effective partnering of air and
ground forces. New processes are needed to effectively
designate targets while ensuring that essential oversight
remains with the terminal air controller, and improved
control mechanisms should be developed to exploit the
benefits of the digital battlefield. As adversaries adapt and
move away from massed motorized forces operating in the
open to dispersed, smaller forces exploiting difficult
terrain, a well practiced and developed air-ground
partnership will be increasingly necessary. Online access:

202
Crane, A. Rathmell, B. D. Steele, R. Teltschik, A. R.
Timilsina. 2005.
Reviews nearly 50 years of UN nation-building efforts to
transform unstable countries into democratic, peaceful,
and prosperous partners. The authors examine the UN's
experience in the Congo, Namibia, El Salvador,
Cambodia, Mozambique, Eastern Slavonia, Sierra Leone,
and East Timor, as well as the U.S. experience in Iraq. The
book complements the authors' earlier study, America's
Role in Nation-Building: From Germany to Iraq (MR1753-RC), which focuses on U.S.-led nation-building
efforts. UN missions are nearly always undermanned and
underfunded, with uneven troop quality and late-arriving
components. But despite these handicaps, the UN success
rate among missions studied-seven out of eight societies
left peaceful, six out of eight left democratic-substantiates
the view that nation-building can be an effective means of
terminating conflicts, insuring against their reoccurrence,
and promoting democracy. The authors conclude that the
UN provides the most suitable institutional framework for
nation-building missions that require fewer than 20,000
men-one with a comparatively low cost structure, a
comparatively high success rate, and the greatest degree of
international legitimacy. American or other major power
leadership is, by contrast, needed for operations which
require forced-entry operations or force levels in excess of
20,000 soldiers. Unfortunately, the United States has been
less successful than the UN in learning from its mistakes
and improving its nation-building performance over time,
and this is reflected in the lower success rate among USled missions studied in this series. Online access:

Framing a Strategic Approach for Joint
Officer Management. H. Thie, M. C. Harrell, R. J.
Yardley, M. Oshiro, H. A. Potter, P. Schirmer, N. Lim.
c2005.
The Goldwater-Nichols Act of 1986 forged a cultural
revolution in the U.S. armed forces by improving the way
in which the Department of Defense (DoD) prepares for
and executes its mission, in part by addressing joint officer
personnel policies and management requirements. In the
past 15 years, successes in Iraq (Operations Desert
Shield/Storm), Bosnia, and Afghanistan, and more
recently in Operation Iraqi Freedom, testify to the
effectiveness of the joint military force and its warfighting
potential. However, recent studies and assessments have
suggested that a strategic approach for joint officer
management in terms of education, assignment, and
promotion is necessary to address the challenges that DoD
confronts in preparing officers to serve in joint
organizations and leadership positions. This RAND
research, sponsored by the Office of the Under Secretary
of Defense (Personnel and Readiness), revisits GoldwaterNichols and defines and frames a strategic approach to
further officers' development in joint matters. Online

Palestinian health system is worthwhile in its own right,
and it may be a relatively cost-effective way to help
demonstrate the tangible benefits of independence and
peaceful relations with neighboring countries. Moreover,
implementation of many of the strategies described can
begin prior to independence. Research for this study was
mainly conducted between December 2002 and July 2003.

The Challenges of Creating a Global

In recognition of the enormous health needs of developing
countries-most notably stemming from infectious diseases
and the lack of basic health care, clean water, adequate
sanitation, and food-and, more recently, of the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs)-which call for a dramatic
reduction in poverty and marked improvements in the
health of the poor by the year 2015-governments,
international organizations, for-profit corporations, and
nonprofit organizations throughout the world regularly
provide both cash and in-kind health resources to
developing countries. These health resources are not
tracked on a global level, however, which means that
policymakers do not have the comprehensive, accurate,
and timely data they need to identify resource gaps, target
assistance, avoid duplication of effort, and track progress
toward the MDGs. The RAND Corporation assessed
existing systems for tracking health resource flows to and
within developing countries to determine the purpose,
content, strengths, and limitations of these systems, with
the objective of determining the characteristics that a truly
global health resource tracking system must have to meet
the needs of potential users and address the limitations of
current systems. The study involved extensive interviews
with people key to the operation and/or management of all
major health resource data collections, detailed analyses of
these data collections, literature reviews, and a technical

in California and the Impact of SB 740. C. M. Guarino, R.
W. Zimmer, C. S. Krop, D. Chau. 2005.
Charter schools are publicly funded schools that have the
flexibility to operate outside normal district control. They
are designed to provide greater educational choice to
families, reduce bureaucratic constraints on educators, and
provide competitive pressure to induce improvement in
conventional public schools while remaining publicly
accountable. This document reports on an evaluation of
the legislatively mandated (under SB 740) process of
evaluating California's nonclassroom-based (NCB) charter
schools, in which instruction generally takes the form of
independent study, home study, or some combination of
these two with classroom-based instruction. The report
concludes that the impact of SB 740 has been significant
and largely in accordance with the explicit goals of the
legislation. However, despite the financial savings to the
state and adaptations on the part of NCB charter schools to
the requirements of SB 740, the success of the legislation
as a mechanism for improving education for California
students is unclear, and it may have had some harmful as
well as beneficial effects. SB 740 has sent a strong and
important message to NCB schools that they must be
careful regarding the ways in which they use resources or
face strong sanctions. But the regulations need to be
reshaped to fit a newly acquired understanding of how
these schools operate within the context of all public
education and to serve the needs of students more
effectively. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

The Quality of Personnel in the
Enlisted Ranks. B. J. Asch, J. A. Romley, M. Totten.
2005.
As the armed services transform to develop capabilities to
meet a spectrum of uncertain threats, a constant objective
will be to ensure the military's compensation and
personnel systems are structured to attract, retain, and
promote high-quality personnel. This monograph provides
evidence on the military's ability to meet these goals in the
past. We regenerate the quality index for a set of threedigit DoD occupations, and use it to examine whether
high-quality personnel are enlisted, retained, and promoted
to their early and midcareers, specifically to year of
service (YOS) 4, YOS8, and YOS12. We use longitudinal
data provided by the Defense Manpower Data Center
(DMDC). Using the quality index, we find that those who
complete their first terms, who stay until YOS8 or YOS12,
and those who are promoted to higher grades are
significantly higher quality. Our conclusions differ from
those drawn from traditional measures because our
measure, the quality index, is designed to include
information about quality that cannot be predicted at entry
but is instead revealed on the job. Online access:

The United Kingdom's Nuclear
Submarine Industrial Base. Vol. 1, Sustaining Design and
Production Resources. J. F. Schank, J. Riposo, J. L.
Birkler, J. Chiesa. 2005.
The complexity and uniqueness of a nuclear submarine
require special skills, facilities, and oversight not
supported by other shipbuilding programmes. In fact, a
single shipyard, Barrow-in-Furness, designs and builds the
United Kingdom's nuclear submarines, and many of the
vendors that support submarine construction are solesource providers. With such specialisation, in addition to a
limited design and production demand, there is concern
about whether the submarine industrial base can maintain
its viability into the future. This report seeks to determine
what actions should be taken to maintain nuclear
submarine design capabilities and how nuclear submarine
production should be scheduled for efficient use of the
industrial base. Based on their findings, the authors
recommend that the Ministry of Defence determine the
scheduling of construction for future submarine contracts
as soon as possible; plan to retain a design core of
designers, engineers, and draughtsmen during periods of
reduced demand; and take steps towards collaboration
with other countries. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

Submarine Industrial Base. Vol. 2, Ministry of Defence
Roles and Required Technical Resources. J. F. Schank, C.

2005.
For most of its history in submarine building, the United
Kingdom's Ministry of Defence (MOD) exercised
significant authority and responsibility in design and
development and performed the integration role for the
acquisition programme. However, political changes in the
1980s and 1990s-mainly the push for a smaller role of
government-forced the MOD to transfer as much of its
submarine acquisition responsibilities as possible to a
prime contractor (BAE Systems for the Astute programme
currently under way). Now, with cost and schedule
problems confronting the Astute programme, the MOD is
trying to reengage in the process of effectively overseeing
submarine design and production. In light of history and
the recent experience drawn from the Astute programme,
the authors of this book suggest appropriate roles for the
MOD in its partnership with the prime contractor for each
phase of future submarine acquisition. Based on
management best practices, they propose a middle-ground
alternative approach-a 'partnership' model-between the
hands-on and hands-off acquisition models used in the
past. They propose changes to the evolving MOD
205
acquisition structure, new staffing levels, and ways to
address some potential impediments, such as the loss of
submarine expertise within the MOD. Online access:

The United Kingdom's Nuclear
Submarine Industrial Base. Vol. 3, Options for Initial
Fueling. R. Raman, R. Murphy, L. Smallman, J. F.
Schank, J. L. Birkler, J. Chiesa. 2005.
Currently in the United Kingdom, BAE Systems' Barrowin-Furness shipyard builds and fuels new submarines,
while Devonport Management Limited (DML) refuels
existing submarines-once their initial fuel load is depletedand defuels them at retirement. Cost increases in
maintaining regulating licenses at both facilities have led
the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) to consider the
possibility of consolidating its nuclear fuel-handling
capabilities at the existing refuelling site at DML.
Consolidation would, however, have complex implications
for cost and scheduling of the Astute programme, which is
already under way. The authors of this report compare
various aspects of the two shipyards, including facility
conflicts, workload, nuclear regulation, and contractual
issues, in regard to three cases hypothesized for
distributing the share of Astute's fuelling between the
yards. As a result of this analysis, it is recommended that
the MOD not consider refuelling the Astute first of class at
DML. The authors also look briefly at BAE Systems'
recent proposal to fuel the submarines at Barrow in a way
that reduces the risks of nuclear accidents and recommend
that the MOD take immediate action in reviewing this
proposal. They also suggest that the MOD promptly
examine the transportation challenges associated with
moving the Astute submarines from the Barrow docks to
the open sea. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

The Arc: A Formal Structure for a
Palestinian State. D. R. Suisman, S. Simon, G. E.
Robinson, C. R. Anthony, M. Schoenbaum. 2005.
An exploration of options for strengthening the physical
infrastructure for a new Palestinian state, this study builds
on analyses that RAND conducted between 2002 and 2004
to identify the requirements for a successful Palestinian
state. That work, Building a Successful Palestinian State,
surveyed a broad array of political, economic, social,
resource, and environmental challenges that a new
Palestinian state would face. This study, The Arc: A
Formal Structure for a Palestinian State, examined a range
of approaches to siting and constructing the backbone of
infrastructure that all states need, in the context of a large
and rapidly growing Palestinian population. The research
team develop a detailed vision for a modern, high-speed
transportation infrastructure, referred to as the Arc. This
transportation backbone accommodates substantial
population growth in Palestine by linking current urban
centers to new neighborhoods via new linear
transportation arteries that support both commercial and
residential development. The Arc avoids the
environmental costs and economic inefficiencies of
unplanned, unregulated urban development that might
otherwise accompany Palestine's rapid population growth.
Constructing the key elements of the Arc will require very
substantial investment of economic resources. It will also
employ substantial numbers of Palestinian construction
workers. It seems plausible that key aspects of the Arc
design can be pursued, with great benefit, even before an
independent Palestinian state is established. Online access:

Transformation and the Army School
System. M. G. Shanley, J. C. Crowley, M. W. Lewis, R.
Masi, S. Straus, K. Leuschner, S. Hartman, S. Stockly.
2005.
Army Transformation and wider operational demands are
placing increased demands on Army training and The
Army School System (TASS), which is responsible for the
vast majority of institutional training in both the Active
Component (AC) and Reserve Component (RC). This
report identifies policies and options for increasing TASS's
contribution to Army readiness while improving the
integration of the AC and RC training systems. The study
recommends, first, that TASS adopt private sector
practices, organizational models, and technologies to
improve its approach for developing interactive media
instruction (IMI) training (a key form of future training).
The study also recommends that TASS expand its training
delivery options by developing a more effective local
training system to conduct selected courses and support
other unit training needs. Finally, TASS should seek to
leverage available training resources to improve
integration of AC-RC training institutions and provide
additional training options. Suggestions are presented for
three potential pilot studies-low-cost demonstration
projects-that would help assess the costs and tradeoffs
involved in the overall change strategy. Online access:

Expanding Access to Mental Health
Counselors: Evaluation of the Tricare Demonstration. L.
S. Meredith, T. L. Tanielian, M. D. Greenberg, A.
Suâarez, E. Eiseman. 2005.
TRICARE, the program through which military health
system beneficiaries access health care services, provides
coverage for most medically necessary mental health care
delivered by qualified providers. Federal legislation in
2001 required the Department of Defense to conduct a
demonstration project involving expanded access under
TRICARE to a particular type of mental health service
provider—the licensed or certified mental health counselor
206
(LMHC). Under the demonstration, LMHCs could provide
services to covered beneficiaries without physician referral
or adherence to physician supervision requirements, both
of which are otherwise required. This report describes and
presents findings from RAND Corporation's evaluation of
the demonstration. The authors present detailed findings,
based on surveys and interviews with various
stakeholders, on the demonstration's impact on health care
utilization, cost, and outcomes of health care services. The
authors examine and compare pre-demonstration and postdemonstration data, and compare results from military
catchment areas that participated in the demonstration and
catchment areas that did not participate but were studied
for comparison purposes. Online access:

Organizational Learning in Terrorist Groups and Its
Implications for Combating Terrorism. B. A. Jackson, J.
C. Baker, K. Cragin, J. Parachini, H. R. Trujillo, P. Chalk.
c2005
Continuing conflicts between violent groups and states
generate an ever-present demand for higher-quality and
more timely information to support operations to combat
terrorism. Better ways are needed to understand how
terrorist and insurgent groups adapt over time into moreeffective organizations and increasingly dangerous threats.
Because learning is the link between what a group wants
to do and its ability to gather the needed information and
resources to actually do it, a better understanding of the
group learning process could contribute to the design of
more-effective measures for combating terrorism. This
study collects and analyzes the available information on
terrorist groups' learning behavior, combining input from
the organizational learning literature, published literature
on terrorist and insurgent groups, and insights drawn from
case studies and workshop discussions. It describes a
model of learning as a four-part process, comprising
acquiring, interpreting, distributing, and storing
information and knowledge. This analytical framework, by
providing a fuller picture of how terrorist groups try to
adapt and evolve over time, may help in understanding the
behavior of individual groups and the level of threat they
pose; in developing effective counterstrategies to detect
and thwart their efforts; and in appropriately allocating
resources to counter potential and proven adversaries. A

A New Direction for China's Defense
Industry. E. S. Medeiros, R. Cliff, K. Crane, J. C.
Mulvenon. 2005.
Since the early 1980s, a prominent and consistent
conclusion drawn from research on China’s defenseindustrial complex has been that China’s defenseproduction capabilities are rife with weaknesses and
limitations. This study argues for an alternative approach:
From the vantage point of 2005, it is time to shift the focus
of current research to the gradual improvements in and the
future potential of China’s defense-industrial complex.
The study found that China’s defense sectors are designing
and producing a wide range of increasingly advanced
weapons that, in the short term, are relevant to a possible
conflict over Taiwan but also to China’s long-term
military presence in Asia. Part of a larger RAND Project
AIR FORCE study on Chinese military modernization,
this study examines the current and future capabilities of
China’s defense industry. The goals of this study are to (1)
assess recent trends in China’s 25-year-long effort to
reform its defense industry; (2) analyze the individual
strengths and weaknesses of four specific defenseindustrial sectors: missile, aircraft, shipbuilding, and
information technology; (3) explain variations in
performance among different defense-industry sectors,
with a focus on differences in institutional arrangements,
incentives, and exposure to market forces; and (4) evaluate
the prospects for China’s defense industry and its ability to
contribute to military modernization. The information
presented in this report is based on previous RAND
Project AIR FORCE work, and on primary and secondary

Price-Based Acquisition: Issues and
Challenges for Defense Department Procurement of
Weapon Systems. M. A. Lorell, J. C. Graser, C. R. Cook.
2005.
Price-based acquisition (PBA) is a major acquisition
reform measure being used by the Department of Defense
(DoD) in an effort to reduce costs and enhance acquisition
efficiency. The essence of PBA is the simple but radical
notion that DoD should establish "fair and reasonable"
prices for goods and services without obtaining extensive
cost data from suppliers. The thinking is that PBA, with its
more commercial-like market pricing strategy, is more
beneficial to the government than the traditionally used,
heavily regulated cost-based acquisition method, which
bases prices on contractor-provided certified cost data.
Supporters of PBA argue that this approach will eliminate
the "regulatory premium" paid by DoD, motivate suppliers
to cut costs, and encourage civil-commercial firms to bid
on DoD contracts for military-unique systems. The end
result, according to PBA advocates, is that DoD will be
able to procure more-capable, cheaper systems in less
time. DoD has had relatively little real-world experience
with "pure" PBA, but it has undertaken many programs
with numerous PBA-like characteristics. The most
important goal of this research was to systematically
review the available evidence to determine whether PBA
offers the benefits its advocates claim, to ascertain
possible pitfalls inherent in PBA, and to identify the most
appropriate circumstances and strategies for implementing
PBA. The findings are based on extensive structured
interviews with government and private-sector individuals
involved in major PBA-like programs and on a review of
more than thirty case studies of programs having
important PBA-like features. A systematic taxonomy of
PBA-like approaches used by DoD in the past was
developed as an aid for the case study assessment and for
integrating the interview findings. All findings and lessons
learned are enumerated. Online access: http://www.rand.

U.S. Interests in Central Asia: Policy
Priorities and Military Roles. O. Oliker, D. A. Shlapak.
2005.
The republics of Central Asia, which received
comparatively little attention from the United States in
their first ten years of independence, suddenly increased in
value when the United States deployed forces and set up
bases of operation in the region in support of Operation
Enduring Freedom. In that context, the U.S. government
stepped up its cooperation programs with the host
countries. Although the short-term needs of OEF have
seemed clear, long-term U.S. interests in the region require
careful consideration and analysis. This document
identifies the implications for the U.S. Air Force of the
trends in the region and of U.S. and other nations’ interests
in Central Asia. The authors conclude that the U.S.
military should have a relatively minor, but still important,
role in U.S. security policy toward the area. An effective
strategy for future U.S. military engagement in Central
Asia would have three main components: maintenance of
a “semi-warm” basing infrastructure; a carefully chosen
program of military-to-military interactions; and
encouraging basic interoperability between local militaries
and the West. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

Early Childhood Interventions: Proven

Parents, policymakers, business leaders, and the general
public increasingly recognize the importance of the first
few years in the life of a child for promoting healthy
physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development.
Nonetheless, many children face deficiencies between
ages 0 and 5 that can impede their ability to develop to
their fullest potential. The PNC Grow Up Great initiative,
a program financed by PNC Financial, Inc., asked RAND
to prepare a thorough, objective review and synthesis of
current research that addresses the potential for various
forms of early childhood intervention to improve
outcomes for participating children and their families. The
authors consider the potential consequences of not
investing additional resources in the lives of children, the
range of early intervention programs, the demonstrated
benefits of interventions with high-quality evaluations, the
features associated with successful programs, and the
returns to society associated with investing early in the
lives of disadvantaged children. Their findings indicate
that a body of sound research exists that can guide
resource allocation decisions. This evidence base sheds
light on the types of programs that have been
demonstrated to be effective, the features associated with
effective programs, and the potential for returns to society
that exceed the resources invested in program delivery.

Sustainment of Army Forces in Operation
Iraqi Freedom: Major Findings and Recommendations. E.

By virtually every account, the major combat operations of
Operation Iraqi Freedom that toppled Saddam Hussein‚s
regime in the spring of 2003 were a remarkable success.
Yet there is a general belief within the Army and the
broader defense community, supported by RAND Arroyo
Center‚s analysis, that this success was achieved despite
logistics problems that hampered materiel sustainment.
However, moving beyond the initial impressions that
emerged quickly following operations, Arroyo‚s research
has indicated that forces and sustainment capabilities were
sufficiently robust to overcome the problems and
effectively execute missions. This monograph describes
how well the Department of Defense logistics system
supported Army forces in Operation Iraqi Freedom,
documents the major reasons for shortfalls in performance,
provides recommendations for improvement, and points to
questions raised with respect to the design of future forces.

Assessing the Impact of Future
Operations on Trainer Aircraft Requirements. J. A.
Ausink, R. Marken, L. L. Miller, T. Manacapilli, W. W.
Taylor, M. R. Thirtle. 2004.
Developing the requirements and securing the funding for
modern military aircraft can take a significant amount of
time. Given emerging operational demands and the age of
some current Air Force trainer aircraft, it is time to
examine how the skills needed to perform future military
missions might affect the capabilities required of new
aircraft and ground-based systems used in pilot training.
From 1962 until 1992, Air Force pilots learned to fly in an
Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) program in which all
students first flew the subsonic T-37 jet aircraft and then
the supersonic T-38. In 1992 the Air Force began a
transition to Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training
(SUPT), which tracked students after the T-37 phase of
training. Students selected to fly fighters or bombers now
train in the T-38, while those selected to fly tanker or
transport aircraft train in the T-1A, a military derivative of
a commercial business jet. The Air Force began replacing
the T-37 with a new aircraft in 2001, but in the next few
years, it must decide to replace or extend the lives of the
aging T-38 and the newer, but tiring, T-1A. The timing of
these decisions matters not only because the Air Force
aircraft inventory will change dramatically in the next 25
years with the planned introduction of two new fighter
aircraft and more unmanned combat aerial vehicles
(UCAVs), but also because of changes in the demands of
flying missions. Air Force pilots face a future
characterized by around-the-clock global operations
requiring near real-time implementation of airpower
against an enemy, incorporation of precision weapons to
increase mission effectiveness while minimizing exposure
of manned aircraft to threats, mobility missions taking
209
place closer to the enemy, integration of large amounts of
information from disparate sources in real-time conditions,
and flight profiles involving greater physiological
demands. This monograph addresses the question of how
the need to acquire skills necessary for future missions
might affect what is taught in undergraduate flying
training. It also addresses what impact the answer to this
question has on decisions to replace or extend the lives of
current Air Force trainer aircraft. Online access:

The Economics of Investing in Universal
Preschool Education in California. L. A. Karoly, J. H.
Bigelow. 2005.
There is increased interest in California and other states in
providing universal access to publicly funded high-quality
preschool education for one or two years prior to
kindergarten entry. In considering such a program,
policymakers and the public focus on the potential benefits
from a universal preschool program, as well as the
estimated costs. This study aims to inform such
deliberations by conducting an analysis of the economic
returns from investing in preschool education in the state
of California. The benefit-cost analysis undertaken in this
study indicates that there can be positive returns for
California society from investing in a one-year highquality universal preschool program. The authors' baseline
estimate, which is arguably conservative, is that every
dollar invested by the public sector beyond current
spending will generate $2.62 in returns. And this estimate
does not account for an array of other benefits not
captured in their analysis because of data limitations.
Those other potential benefits include lower intangible
losses from crime and child abuse and neglect averted,
reduced reliance on public welfare programs, improved
labor market outcomes for parents of preschoolers,
improved health and well-being of preschool participants,
and the intergenerational transmission of favorable
benefits. Broader economic and noneconomic benefits
may accrue in other areas as well, including labor force
recruitment and participation rates, workforce
performance, economic growth, international

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle End-to-End
Support Considerations. J. G. Drew, R. D. Shaver, K. F.
Lynch, M. A. Amouzegar, D. Snyder. 2005.
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been used
successfully in recent combat operations, such as
operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. These
successes have confirmed the military utility of UAVs and
portend that a greater number of such vehicles may
become part of the DoD's future force posture. However,
because of the rapid acquisition strategy used to get these
UAVs into the field as quickly as possible, the
implications for their long-term support needs are unclear.
The authors examine current support postures for UAV
systems, such as Global Hawk and Predator. Through this
examination, it became clear that there is a gap between
traditional methods of determining logistics requirements
and rapid acquisition processes. A balance needs to be
struck between providing a new capability rapidly and the
effects of that on long-term support of that capability.
Some of the areas the Air Force will need to consider for
future developments are budgeting to resolve issues that
arise during testing and evaluation, training issues, and
planning for standardization with future use of spiral
development. Online access: http://www.rand.org/pubs/

visible is Edison Schools. In 2000, Edison asked RAND to
analyze its achievement outcomes and design
implementation. RAND designed an evaluation to address
the following research questions: What are Edison's
strategies for promoting student achievement in the
schools it manages? How are Edison's strategies
implemented in those schools? How does Edison's
management of schools affect student achievement? What
factors explain differences in achievement trends among
Edison schools? The resources and accountability systems
that constitute Edison's design represent a coherent,
comprehensive, and ambitious strategy to address key
elements relevant to providing high-quality education. The
best-functioning Edison schools demonstrate the promise
inherent in Edison's model, but this monograph reports
considerable variation in the extent to which the schools
realize the Edison ideal. Average rates of student
proficiency in Edison schools improve over time. On
average, gains of Edison schools during the first three
years of Edison operation do not exceed the gains of
matched conventional public schools, but Edison results
improve in years four and five. Edison's average long-term
gains are comparable to or better than those of matched
conventional public schools. Analysis of a number of casestudy Edison schools suggests that schools that effectively
implement the wide-ranging Edison curriculum, establish
Edison's professional environment, and operate with
strong instructional leaders under limited constraints have
positive achievement results. Given that Edison's results
have not been uniformly positive, this monograph suggests
some actions that Edison and its current and future clients
can take to promote greater consistency of results, in terms
of both implementation and student achievement. Online

Chasing the Dragon: Assessing China's
System of Export Controls for WMD-Related Goods and
Technologies. E. S. Medeiros. 2005.
China's export controls on sensitive equipment, materials,
and technologies used to produce weapons of mass
destruction (WMD) have evolved significantly since the
early 1980s. This monograph examines the structure and
operation of the Chinese government's system of controls
on exports of items that could be used in the production of
WMD and WMD-related delivery systems. The author
identifies the key organizations involved in export control
decisionmaking, the laws and regulations that form the
basis of the Chinese government's system of controls, and
the interactions among government organizations involved
in vetting sensitive exports. The author assesses the
strengths and weaknesses of the system's ability to
implement and enforce government export controls and
identifies several challenges that the Chinese government
currently faces in improving the current functioning of its
nascent export control system. Online access: http://www.

Liquid Assets: How Demographic
Changes and Water Management Policies Affect
Freshwater Resources. J. Boberg. 2005.
Human beings' powerful effect on the environment is
becoming increasingly clear. Demographic factors are
commonly recognized as a primary global driver of
human-induced environmental change, along with
biophysical, economic, sociopolitical, technological, and
cultural factors. Concerns about demographic effects on
the environment are fueled by demographic trends such as
global population growth and the exponential growth of
urban areas. These trends have spawned a body of
literature regarding the connections between demographic
trends and natural resources, such as water, much of which
has taken an alarmist view. These reports often limit
themselves to looking at the effects of population growth,
and treat water supplies as static and population as ever
increasing, inexorably leading to a water-availability
crisis. This report attempts to present a more holistic view
of the interaction between demographic factors and water
resources by considering a wider range of demographic
variables as well as a set of mitigating factors that
influence water availability at the local level. The report
focuses primarily on conditions in developing countries,
since that is where the forces of demographics and natural
resources intersect with the fewest social and economic
resources to mediate their impacts. Online access:

Implications of Modern Decision
Science for Military Decision-Support Systems. P. K.
Davis, J. Kulick, M. Egner. 2005.
Decision science concerns understanding human
decisionmaking and methods and tools to assist it. The
first concern includes the distinction between descriptive
and prescriptive: how humans actually decide, versus how
they should decide. Much of the early literature prescribed
rational-analytic methods, such as embodied in systems
analysis and policy analysis. The descriptive literature,
however, has long noted that humans use heuristics
(cognitive shortcuts), which are usually quite valuable, but
which sometimes introduce unintended biases. Efforts
have been made to improve decision support by
"debiasing" the presentation of information. A newer
literature on "naturalistic" decisionmaking, however,
emphasizes the strengths of intuitive decisionmaking
211
based on heuristics and questions the desirability of
debiasing. Our study contrasts the schools of thought and
suggests steps toward a synthesis. Ultimately, decision
support should appeal to both the rational-analytic and the
intuitive capabilities of the decisionmaker, with a balance
of "cold" and story-based presentation of analysis and
recommendations. The particular balance should depend
on characteristics of the decision, the decision
environment, and the decisionmaker. Our study also
discusses new tools emerging for decision support, which
include increasingly realistic models and simulations, such
as virtual worlds, and new methods to help in the creative
and imaginative aspects of strategic planning. Most
important, we note modern methods, such as exploratory
analysis, to encourage decisions and strategies that are
flexible, adaptive, and robust so as to deal well with
uncertainty. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

The Role of Districts in Fostering
Instructional Improvement: Lessons from Three Urban
Districts Partnered with the Institute for Learning. J. A.
Marsh, K. A. Kerr, G. Ikemoto, H. Darilek, M. J. Suttorp,
R. W. Zimmer, H. Barney. 2005.
The current high-stakes accountability environment
brought on by the federal No Child Left Behind Act places
great pressure on school districts to demonstrate success
by meeting yearly progress goals for student achievement
and eventually demonstrating that all students achieve at
high standards. Many urban school districts, in particular,
face great challenges in meeting these goals. This study
analyzes three urban districts' efforts to face these
challenges and assesses the contribution to those efforts
made by an intermediary organization, the Institute for
Learning. It describes the districts' work in four areas:
promoting principals' instructional leadership; supporting
teachers' professional learning, in particular through
school-based coaching models; specifying curriculum; and
promoting data-based decisionmaking for planning and
instructional improvement. For each area, it identifies
constraints and enablers of district success, assesses the
nature and effect of district-intermediary partnerships, and
makes recommendations for districts undertaking similar
instructional reforms. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

Stretched Thin: Army Forces for
Sustained Operations. L. E. Davis, J. M. Polich, W. M.
Hix, M. D. Greenberg, S. D. Brady, R. E. Sortor. 2005.
The United States faces very difficult trade-offs in
responding to the demanding calls now being made on
Army forces for overseas operations in Iraq and
Afghanistan. This report describes the effects of largescale deployments on the Army's ability to provide ready
forces for other contingencies, to ensure that its soldiers
are trained for warfighting and stability operations, and to
preserve the quality of life for its soldiers and families.
The authors found the Army's plans for transforming its
active and reserve brigades and employing its reserves at
reasonable rates help ameliorate the stresses but still leave
shortfalls. Steps available to improve the situation all
involve significant risks or costs. Unless these overseas
requirements recede considerably, the nation is faced with
an Army stretched thin, with no quick fix or
straightforward solution. Online access: http://www.rand.

Developing Iraq's Security Sector:
The Coalition Provisional Authority's Experience. A.
Rathmell, O. Oliker, T. K. Kelly, D. Brannan, K. Crane.
2005.
Following the war in Iraq, the United States and its allies
found that their prewar expectations of security did not
match the actual postwar environment. Iraqi security
forces had largely disappeared, and those that remained
were incapable of countering a rising tide of political
violence and crime. From May 2003 to June 28, 2004
(when it handed over authority to the Iraqi Interim
Government), the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA)
sought to field Iraqi security forces and to develop security
sector institutions. This book-all of whose authors were
advisors to the CPA-breaks out the various elements of
Iraq‚s security sector, including the defense, interior, and
justice sectors, and assesses the CPA‚s successes and
failures. Furthermore, the book identifies six problems
underlying the coalition‚s approach that need to be
addressed if Iraq is to recover from past mistakes. Iraq
needs capable security forces in the near term and
sustainable security institutions for the long term. The
authors emphasize that the onus must remain on the
United States and its international partners to ensure that
long-term institution-building remains on the Iraqi agenda.

An Analysis of Military Disability
Compensation. R. J. Buddin, K. Kapur. 2005.
Disability payments for military personnel have received
much attention recently, in part because of concern over
the long-term economic consequences of injuries in
Afghanistan and Iraq. This research reviews the goals and
effectiveness of current policies for compensating veterans
with military-related disabilities. It identifies trends in
veterans' disabilities, compares the military disability
system with that used by civilian firms, and describes the
effect of military disability on civilian labor market
outcomes. The results show that military disability
payments are adequate to offset most labor-market losses
from military-related disabilities-many of the severely
injured retirees receive substantially larger disability
212
benefits y than their estimated economic losses in the labor
market. In addition, many retirees with a VA disability
rating report no health or disability problem that limits
their work in the civilian labor market. These findings
suggest that the military disability rating system may no
longer be valid. The system is based on the ability to
perform physical tasks that may have limited effects on
labor market success in today's service- and knowledgebased economy. A more coherent and less complex system
is needed to identify the criteria for measuring the
economic loss from an injury and target payments to better
reflect the economic consequences of a militaryrelated disability. Online access: http://www.rand.org/

Establishing Law and Order After
Conflict. S. G. Jones, J. M. Wilson, A. Rathmell, K. J.
Riley. 2005.
In a nation-building operation, outside states invest much
of their resources in establishing and maintaining the host
country's police, internal security forces, and justice
system. Strengthening all these elements is crucial for
achieving sustainable law and order. This book examines
in detail the post-Cold War reconstruction efforts of Iraq,
Afghanistan, and Kosovo, three major cases in which the
United States and its allies have attempted to reconstruct
security institutions. It then compares them with similar
but smaller projects in Panama, El Salvador, Somalia,
Haiti, Bosnia, and East Timor. In doing so, the authors
make three main arguments. First, establishing security
during the "golden hour"—the period immediately
following major combat operations—should be the most
significant concern of policymakers. Second, building a
functioning justice system is a critical and often
overlooked task of rebuilding security. Third, the authors
provide rough guidelines for successfully reconstructing
security after a major combat operation, including
recommended force-to-population ratios, financial
assistance, and duration of reconstruction. For future
policy recommendations, the authors encourage
decisionmakers to consider such principal elements as
negotiating formal peace treaties or surrenders,
establishing of comprehensive post-conflict doctrine, and
using outcome-based metrics to measure success. Online

Placing a Value on the Health Benefit
for Active-Duty Personnel. J. R. Hosek, M. G. Mattock,
M. Schoenbaum, E. Eiseman. 2005.
The availability of health care for active-duty military
personnel and their families is a fundamental component
of the services' commitment to support their personnel. It
represents a substantial benefit to military members and
families, but, despite this clear value, military health care
benefits are not routinely counted as an element of military
compensation. The end result is that military members
may be unaware of the full value of the health care benefit
they receive. RAND used relevant calendar year 2000 data
from Fortune 500 employers from Ingenix, a private health
information company, to quantify military health care
benefits. The accessed claims came from many different
employers, insurance carriers, and health plans, and they
included beneficiaries in most U.S. states. The authors use
these data to describe methods for quantifying the value of
military health care benefits from the perspective of
active-duty members and their families. Even using
conservative estimates, the authors find that the value can
be quite considerable, ranging from hundreds of dollars
per year for healthy single members, who use little health
care but would face health insurance premiums in the
civilian sector that they do not face in the military, to
thousands of dollars for military families. Online access:

Estimating Terrorism Risk. H. H.
Willis, A. R. Morral, T. K. Kelly, J. J. Medby. 2005.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is
responsible for protecting the United States from
terrorism. It achieves this goal partly through the Urban
Areas Security Initiative, which allocates resources to
states and urban areas. Until DHS can know the
effectiveness of available risk-reduction alternatives or
determine reasonable minimum standards for community
preparedness, allocating homeland security resources
based on risk is the next best approach; areas at higher risk
are likely to have more and larger opportunities for risk
reduction than areas at lower risk. This monograph offers
a method for constructing an estimate of city risk shares,
designed to perform well across a wide range of threat
scenarios and risk types. It also proposes and demonstrates
a framework for comparing the performance of alternative
risk estimates given uncertainty in measuring the elements
of risk. Finally, it makes five recommendations for
improving the allocation of homeland security resources:
DHS should consistently define terrorism risk in terms of
expected annual consequences; DHS should seek robust
risk estimators that account for uncertainty about terrorism
risk and variance in citizen values; DHS should develop
event-based models of terrorism risk; until reliable eventbased models are constructed, DHS should use densityweighted population rather than population as a simple
risk indicator; and DHS should fund research to bridge the
