IS THE CONTENTION THAT YOUNG-uEOD ling- JOT'S ARE MORE
LIKELY TO QUIT THAN OLDER ONES
JUSTIFIED ??
The following chart was prepared as part of a plan to see if
.the above contention is borne out by facts. The figures resulting
should he compared with the TOTAL number of JOT's TAKEN IN in the
1956-63 period, by similar age groups.
IE, there were only five 23-year-old resignees 1956-63; there
were 19 26-year-old ones. If we know the total number of JOT'S taken
in at each age level during the period, we can compare, on a percentage
basis, the number of drop-outs, or rather the rate of same.
The number of dropouts at each age is known, lacking is the
number of JOT's remaining in the Agency, as of 1963, in each age
group, Adding # remaining to # of dropouts would give the total.
The number remaining can be hand-categorized, on a similar
chart to the one following, from the "JOT Master Listing
Updated
25X1A9a which Mr, _ has. As of 31 December 1963"
.
The JOT office apparently does not have records of the EOD
ages of its classes.
This project, if done in conjunction with others in the JOT
field, could either collect data for those others or use the age,
data already collected.
NOTE: This survey should deal only with
non-female, non-military, non-internal
JOT's. JOT's who EOD'd into the JOT
program at less than. GS-7 were also
eliminated from the chart which follows
on dropouts.

Dote on the accomparrkrin chart
This chart covers JOT's who EOD'd in the JOT program from 1956-
1963 inclusive: a period of 8 years.
It covers only non-internal, non-military males. Internals'
retention has been examined already (it is very high), military
retention also (it is too low, and the military program is for
all practical purposes now discontinued), and female retention (also
very low, but L13Y likes 'em, so we'll keep getting -- or gittin' -
'em). -
There were 78 total "dropouts" as of 31 Dec. 1963 among the 1956-
63 JOT'S. The left margin is age at EOD into the JOT program (not
into the Agency). The top margin is the minimum time spent in the
Agency after acceptance and beginning of JOT training.
The little hash marks in the boxes was the counting as the
records were gone through.
