Great job, ladies! Not only did you achieve last week's goal (125 soldiers), you blew it away! You completed 143 soldiers and their families!

Can you do it two weeks in a row? We're trying to get to 75% of the total sample complete (row 5 of the table above, not counting the heading row), so Dora has enough power in the sample to do some preliminary analysis, so she can get a new grant, so we can all keep our jobs.

Goals for this week:

Good = 125 soldiers (same goal as last week)

Great = 143 soldiers (the number we completed in the past week)

Gold star = 145 soldiers (exceed the number of soldiers we completed this week)

To achieve the great or gold star goals, each person will need to complete about 24 soldiers this week. Of course, people who work more hours will complete more soldiers. Set a personal goal based on the number of hours your work. Good luck! I think we can do it.
