PY - 2023 PB - RAND Corporation DB - UniCat UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:143046024 AB - To effectively monitor the needs of U.S. Army families, evaluate whether Army programs and services are reaching those most in need, and inform policy decisions affecting families, the Army needs feedback from family members, particularly Army spouses. The Today's Army Spouse Panel (TASP) offers the opportunity for spouses of Army soldiers to provide valuable feedback for the Army to use in data-driven decisionmaking. A panel based on a survey sample drawn in 2018, used for a TASP proof-of-concept study, was no longer representative of the Army spouse population in 2022 in terms of soldier pay grade, presence or absence of dependent children, and whether respondents were living in the continental United States or outside it. This report describes the methodology used to refresh the panel to be representative of active-component Army spouses. ER -
