Description of the Book:

There has been growing recognition over the past several years that the maintenance of adequate race relations in a unit is best performed and most appropriately performed as a command function. Thus, the day-to-day decisions that a unit commander makes regarding the operation of his unit must be guided by a knowledge of the racial climate in his unit and an appreciation of the effects his decisions might have on that racial climate. To make this possible, however, the commander needs continuing information about the current racial climate in his unit and the changes that occur in this climate over time. The Racial Attitudes and Perceptions Survey (RAPS) was developed to meet this need. It provides the means by which a broad cross-section of a division’s or an installation’s personnel can be surveyed about racial conditions, and information can be gathered about the racial climate of that unit
