Abstract

In 1972, the Marland Report included leadership as a domain of giftedness in the first federal definition. Although federal and state descriptions of gifted and talented services still include identifying and developing leadership talent, in many states, services are not mandated or funded. Consequently, leadership development is often left to extracurricular programs (e.g., student organizations, athletics). The Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC) provides school-based military-focused leadership education and opportunities to apply emergent leadership skills. This qualitative study examined leadership talent development in JROTC and the postsecondary paths participants chose. A self-report survey was distributed to graduating seniors enrolled in JROTC in Texas public high schools. The findings highlighted characteristics of students who chose to pursue military-focused education or careers after high school and themes about their leadership development experiences in JROTC. Students benefitted from opportunities for career-related identity exploration, a culture that supported leadership development, and psychosocial skills coaching.

校本领导人才培养:初级预备役军官训练团参与与大专计划考察

1972年，《马兰报告》(Marland Report)将领导力作为天赋的一个领域纳入了第一个联邦定义。尽管联邦和各州对天才服务的描述仍然包括识别和培养领导才能，但在许多州，这些服务并不是强制性的，也没有资金支持。因此，领导力发展往往被留给课外活动(例如，学生组织，体育运动)。初级预备役军官训练团(JROTC)提供以学校为基础的军事领导教育和应用紧急领导技能的机会。本质性研究考察了JROTC的领导才能发展和参与者选择的高等教育路径。一份自我报告调查被分发给德克萨斯州公立高中的JROTC毕业生。研究结果突出了高中毕业后选择以军事为重点的教育或职业的学生的特点，以及他们在JROTC的领导力发展经历的主题。学生们受益于与职业相关的身份探索机会、支持领导力发展的文化以及心理社会技能指导。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
