abstract="<p>1. The efficiency of a squadron is associated with morale attitudes involving satisfaction with the air site. There is no association indicated between efficiency and such attitude areas as (a) Satisfaction with the Air Force, (b) Satisfaction with the Job, or (c) Personal Commitment to the Mission. The lack of association with these three morale dimensions is explained as due to factors operating outside of the squadron that are attributable to higher headquarters or general social conditions.</p> <p>Deviant combinations of air site morale and efficiency do appear and must be explained by the intervention of various physical and social factors such as specified for Combination B and C.</p> <p>2. The joint occurrence of efficiency and human relations minded leadership is associated with air site morale. The evidence indicates that the joint occurrence of efficiency and human relations minded leadership may increase the relationship with air site morale.</p><p />",
