Purpose of Discipline correct answers Given the nature of your duties and responsibilities
associated with your rank, discipline is crucial. You may have witnessed it or have been part of a
group of people that believed structure and discipline are overrated. However, there comes a
point where someone has to step up and give orders/direction. If you don't enforce and maintain
good order and discipline, the mission will fail. In the face of adversity and difficulty, discipline
enables individuals to pursue what's best for those around them, their unit, and the Air Force
Discipline correct answers training expected to produce a specific character or pattern of
behavior, especially training that produces moral or mental improvement. It's a state of training,
resulting in orderly conduct.
Military Discipline correct answers Founded upon respect for and loyalty to properly constituted
authority; it's that mental attitude and state of training which renders obedience instinctive under
all conditions.
Imposed Discipline correct answers Imposed discipline refers to the enforced obedience to legal
orders and regulations. It's essential in combat or in emergencies when there is no time to explain
or discuss an order. Most Air Force training teaches you to carry out orders quickly and
efficiently
self-discipline correct answers A willing and instinctive sense of responsibility that leads you to
do whatever needs to be done; far above your acceptance of imposed discipline, self-discipline
reflects your personal commitment and sense of duty. Examples of self-discipline include getting
to work on time, knowing all aspects of the job, setting priorities, and denying some personal
preferences for more important values, duties, and missions.
Task Discipline correct answers How well you meet the challenges of the job. First, you must
recognize that the job is important, and how well you perform will influence the effectiveness of
your work section and your unit. Task discipline requires a strong sense of responsibility in
performing your job to the best of your abilities, volunteering for the tough jobs, and working
overtime, if necessary, to accomplish your mission as it relates to the Air Force mission
Group Discipline correct answers Since most Air Force jobs require that several people work
effectively as a team, group discipline is very important. Just as you must have a sense of
,responsibility to your job, you should also have a sense of group responsibility and effective
team membership. You must "pull your own weight," and at times you may have to deny some
personal preferences for the good of your group, section, and unit
Unit Discipline correct answers A state of order and obedience existing within a unit that
involves Airmen's willingness to do good for the unit; it demands habitual but reasoned
obedience that preserves initiative and functions even in the absence of the commander.
Remember, it's not about "me" but about "we" and whatever is best for the institution
Preventive Discipline correct answers Processes/actions designed to keep someone from doing
something undesirable. For example, initial feedback sessions are a mandatory process designed
to inform subordinates of policies, procedures, rules, to hopefully prevent potential infractions
and UCMJ violations down the road
Standards correct answers are morals, ethics, or habits established by an authority, custom, or an
individual as acceptable behavior.
Types of Discipline correct answers • Military • Imposed • Self-discipline • Task • Group • Unit
Administration Actions correct answers tools are corrective in nature, not punitive
Punitive Actions correct answers actions are also considered corrective tools, but in most cases,
result in a permanent bad mark in the member's service record
Discipline Model (DM) correct answers is a system of three Arenas that if used correctly can
help uphold standards and discipline in the Air Force. The three Arenas consist of Prevention,
Correction, and Punishment and are intended to build upon one another and if taken seriously,
each preceding Arena can serve to preclude the following Arena.
Prevention correct answers is to "Prevent" or stop problems before they occur. The unethical
behaviors that go against what govern our core values are detrimental to the personnel or
productivity of a work center. Supervisors who exercise preventive measures are less likely to
face as many major discipline issues in their work centers. Prevention is all about setting
standards or "line of acceptability", establishing rapport, and creating a climate of accountability.
,Correction correct answers is designed to address ineffective and inappropriate behavior, and
seek to bring subordinates' behavior back within acceptable boundaries using the least amount of
force necessary
Punishment correct answers purpose is to correct and rehabilitate those who repeatedly or
blatantly violate standards. Only officers on G-series orders can punish enlisted members and
only through Article 15 or courts-martial processes. Commander only discipline (Punishment)
includes Articles 15, courts-martial, administrative demotions, and discharge
characterization/recommendations.
Progressive Discipline Process (PDP) correct answers -Establish Standards
- Monitor
-Apply the PDP
Unfavorable Information File (UIF) Program correct answers commanders, supervisors, and
other persons in authority can issue administrative counseling, admonition, and reprimand. These
actions are intended to improve, correct, and instruct subordinates who depart from standards of
conduct or performance, on or off duty, and whose actions degrade the unit's mission.
Informal counseling correct answers used with minor misconduct and first-time offenses, can be
an effective first step for you. It's a good idea to document verbal counseling sessions with a
"Memo for Record (MFR)" that provides a brief description of matters discussed, then sign and
place in the member's Personnel Information File (PIF).
• Formal counseling correct answers is required when misconduct warrants stronger action than
informal counseling or when the behavior has continued despite previous informal counseling
efforts. Formal counseling is especially important for any behavior that's contrary to Air Force
standards.
Referral counseling correct answers is used when you're aware of a problem a subordinate is
experiencing that goes beyond the scope of the subordinate's and the supervisor's abilities. In this
type of instance, the supervisor would appropriately refer the subordinate to one of the following
individuals or agencies that normally handle referral situations: first sergeant, military personnel
, flight, legal office, area defense counsel, chaplain, family support center, military equal
opportunity, or base clinic/hospital.
Admonition (also known as an admonishment correct answers either verbal or written, is more
severe than counseling. Use it for infractions serious enough to warrant admonishment but not
serious enough to warrant reprimand.
Reprimand correct answers either verbal or written, is more severe than counseling or
admonishment and indicates a stronger degree of official censure
Control Roster (command directed) correct answers is a 6-month observation period for
individuals whose duty performance is substandard or who fail to meet or maintain Air Force
standards.
Article 15 ( command directed) correct answers Although commanders initiate and issue Article
15s, NCOs play a significant role in the process. You're expected to make recommendations to
the commander on the punishment issued to your subordinates. You cannot do that if you haven't
established the rapport you read about in the Prevention Arena of the DM. As a minimum, you
should know enough about your Airmen to make a punishment recommendation that not only fits
the crime but that helps motivate the person to change his or her behavior. Punishment shouldn't
be too easy or too harsh. Always remember prudence over justice.
Seven Rights of Accused correct answers 1. Presumption of Innocence
2. Protection from Compulsory Selfincrimination
3. Pretrial Investigation
4. Representation by Counsel
5. Fair and Impartial Trial
6. Right of Appeal
7. Protection from Double (former) Jeopardy
Presumption of Innocence correct answers Although we may often seem to operate as if someone
is "Guilty" until proven innocent, it's supposed to be the other way around. Treating someone as
innocent until proven guilty requires you to invoke an important element of our core values.
