This study compared female and male Air Force pilots across four differing methodologies. A computerized interview survey indicated several gender differences in attitudes toward military aviation. Males appear to continue to be uncomfortable with mixed squadrons. Females seem to have concerns about flying in combat. An in-depth personality test showed female pilots were in between male pilots and college student controls. A more global personality study showed that there are differences between early and mid-career female pilots with apparent changes across time. Finally, a new test of personality, psychopathology, and crew interaction was developed in order to more specifically quantify gender, selection, training, and retention issues.
