Young (b) Keywords: Open source software; Expectancy-value theory; Expectancy; Valence; Satisfaction; Continuance Abstract: We investigated open source software (OSS) developers' intentions to continue their involvement in future projects. The research goal was to analyze the motivations of OSS developers systematically and identify those factors that influenced their continuation. A work motivation model for OSS developers was proposed and a research model was empirically validated using data from a field survey of 148 OSS participants. The results showed that OSS developers' feelings of satisfaction and their intentions to continue with OSS development was influenced by both helping behavior and economic incentives and also that adequate motivators existed, though OSS developers did not benefit equally and there was substantial room to improve their experiences as OSS developers.

39. A Comprehensive Officer Sabbatical Program: Rethinking the Military Officer Career Path

Author

ARMY WAR COLL CARLISLE BARRACKS PA, Gerlach, James M., ARMY WAR COLL CARLISLE BARRACKS PA, and Gerlach, James M.

Abstract

The military needs to retain its best officers and maximize the skills and abilities of these officers to achieve the more proficient and professional officer corps required in the modern, complex operating environment. Due to externalities affecting retention, limited opportunities for formal and informal education outside the military environment, changing demographics within the greater military family, difficulty competing with characteristics of the civilian workforce, and a growing civilian-military cultural gap, the military has not successfully maximized the quality, proficiency and professionalism of its officer corps. This paper proposes a comprehensive sabbatical program to address these issues. This program would require military professionals, at certain junctures in their careers, to take a hiatus from military service for a 2- or 3-year period to pursue an education, start a family, work in the civilian labor force, or otherwise pursue a life outside the military, before returning to the military to resume their careers., Strategy Research Project.
