This report is part of the RAND Corporation Annual report series. The Annual Report (AR) series was a product of the RAND Corporation from 1998 to 2012. Documents in this series summarized the activity and achievements in the RAND FFRDC Units. In 2013, the AR series was merged into the Corporate Publication series; annual reports from 2013 onward can now be found under Corporate Publications.
Our mission to help improve policy and decisionmaking through research and analysis is enabled through our core values of quality and objectivity and our unwavering commitment to the highest level of integrity and ethical behavior. To help ensure our research and analysis are rigorous, objective, and nonpartisan, we subject our research publications to a robust and exacting quality-assurance process; avoid both the appearance and reality of financial and other conflicts of interest through staff training, project screening, and a policy of mandatory disclosure; and pursue transparency in our research engagements through our commitment to the open publication of our research findings and recommendations, disclosure of the source of funding of published research, and policies to ensure intellectual independence.
