A convenience sample of 429 respondents in the Republic of South Africa participate…
S. L. A. Marshall’s Men Against Fire: New Evidence Regarding Fire Ratios
T he findings of journalist-soldier S. L. A. Marshall about combat fire ra- tios-particularly that in World War II less than 25 percent of American combat infantrymen in battle fired their weapons-have been controversial since Marshall published them in his 1947 book, Men Against Fire. 1 He continued to apply his methodology-the after-action, group interview with enlisted men-during the Korean War, where he concluded that more than half the front…

African Self-Consciousness and Health-Promoting Behaviors among African American College Students

Right under their noses all along, so to speak, was what I shall call, for want of a better descriptive title, the Food Connection.
