SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: Status of the Forces Survey of 

Active Duty Members; OMB Control 

Number 0704–0624. 

Type of Request: Revision. 

Number of Respondents: 16,500. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Annual Responses: 16,500. 

Average Burden per Response: 20 

minutes. 

Annual Burden Hours: 5,500 hours. 

Needs and Uses: The purpose of the 

Status of the Forces Survey (SOFS) of 

Active Duty Members is to assess the 

attitudes and opinions of active duty 

members and to provide key metrics to 

the OUSD(P&R). Results of this and 

subsequent surveys are used to provide 

direct feedback on key strategic 

indicators such as satisfaction and 

retention. These indicators provide 

primary data on personnel career plans, 

retention decisions, morale, 

commitment, and quality of life and 

historically provide the ability to 

evaluate the impact of policies and 

programs with regard to readiness and 

retention. The surveys are benchmarks 

by which senior DoD officials can track 

trends over time. Data from the surveys 

will be presented to the OUSD(P&R), 

Military Departments, Congress, and 

DoD policy and program offices. 

Analysis will include the Office of 

People Analytics’ (OPA) standard 

products: A tabulation volume (a set of 

relative frequency distributions of each 

question, and cross-tabulations of 

survey questions by key stratifying 

variables), briefing slides and reports 

highlighting key findings, and a 

statistical methodology report. Ad hoc 

analyses requested by the policy office 

sponsors and other approved 

organizations may be conducted as 

needed and based on available staff. 

These projects take approximately one 

year to complete, including assessment 

design and development, fielding and 

administration, and data analysis and 

reporting. In addition, as mandated by 

the National Defense Authorization Act 

for Fiscal Year 2016, Title VI, Subtitle 

F, Subpart 661, the Defense Manpower 

Data Center, now OPA, fields a financial 

literacy and preparedness survey within 

the SOFS annually. Results will be used 

by the Service Secretaries to evaluate 

and update financial literacy training 

and will be submitted in a report to the 

Committees on Armed Services of the 

Senate and the House of 

Representatives. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households. 

Frequency: Annually.

Sexual assault, sexual harassment, 

and gender discrimination remain a 

major concern across the DoD and for 

members of Congress. In February 2004, 

the OUSD(P&R) testified before the 

Senate Armed Services Committee on 

the prevalence of sexual assault in the 

DoD and the programs and policies 

planned to address the issues. In 

accordance with legislative 

requirements, the OUSD(P&R) issued 

memoranda to the Services that provide 

DoD policy guidance on sexual assault 

that included a new standard definition, 

response capability, training 

requirements, response actions, and 

reporting guidance throughout the 

Department. The Sexual Assault and 

Prevention Response Office supported 

implementation of the new policy and 

requires data to assess the prevalence of 

sexual assault in the Department and

members on issues relating to sexual 

harassment, gender discrimination, and 

sexual assault, as well as the culture and

assault that have occurred and the 

number of times in the preceding year; 

(3) the effectiveness of DoD policies 

designed to improve professional 

relationships between male and female 

Service members; (4) the effectiveness of 

current processes for complaints, 

reports, and investigations; and, (5) 

specific issues related to sexual 

harassment, sexual assault, and gender 

discrimination that may inform the 

Department’s prevention and response 

efforts.
