结论	Each service conceived of its physical screening in a slightly different way, and, as a result, the work to validate the physical screening processes varied in focus. The Army and Marine Corps work for ground combat occupations (i.e., the effort not focused on the special operations occupations) and the Air Force's efforts for its special operations occupations were designed specifically to establish gender-neutral standards for selection into these occupations at entry. The work by the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps for their special operations occupations focused most heavily on validating the training content and did not validate the use of physical screening for top-down selection prior to entering training. The Army's combat arms effort (i.e., the effort not focused on the special operations occupations) and Air Force's battlefield airman effort generally pursued methodologies that were well suited to addressing the first four stages of our recommended six-stage process. While the services' efforts to address the remaining occupations (specifically Navy and Army special operations occupations and both the Marine Corps' combat arms and special operations occupations) have marshaled various forms of support for their screening process, some of that support is—to varying degrees—less definitive than that of the Army's combat arms effort and Air Force's battlefield airman effort.
摘要	Ongoing research is a critical step in setting the best standards, so the public and the Office of the Secretary of Defense should expect to see the services continue to investigate the validity of their standards long after implementation. It is legitimate for the military services to continue to make adjustments to the standards informed by that ongoing research and as new information comes to light over time. Continued changes and adjustments to the standards should be not only expected, but also encouraged as more information is amassed. Applicants and applicant qualifications likely will change as people adjust to the opening of the positions and it becomes a more accepted career path for women. As women become interested, they will undoubtedly begin to prepare in earnest to meet the physical demands. As a result, we recommend continuing to collect data on the validity of the screening criteria and alternative measures on samples of both men and women applicants and incumbents in the years following the opening of the positions.
