To what degree is the suicide trend in the U. S. Army unique to that service, relative to what is observed in the general U. S. population? Researchers investigate how accounting for additional population risk factors beyond age and gender (race/ethnicity, time, marital status, and educational attainment) affects suicide rate differences between soldiers and a comparable subset of the general U. S. population.

In this report, RAND researchers explore an application of artificial intelligence that would enable the U. S. Air Force to leverage existing data for improved human resource management policies and practices. The main purpose of this report is to serve as a worked example for Air Force policymakers as they consider how to approach the potential ways in which artificial intelligence can improve human resource management processes.
