The effect of acquisition and analysis automation failure in a low-fidelity multitasking system

Creator:: Secor, William R.
Abstract:: Research into the effect of automation on human multitasking performance is primarily focused on Decision Automation (a machine suggesting a certain course of action for a human operator to take) and Action Automation (a machine carrying out a certain course of action on behalf of the human operator) while Acquisition...

The Effect of Handedness on User Speed and Accuracy in Interaction with Special-purpose Handheld Digital Devices

Creator:: Bengtson, Lucas
Abstract:: This project studied how a user's handedness affects his or her ability to use a special-purpose handheld digital device such as a digital camera or rangefinder. More specifically, it sought to identify how handedness affects speed and accuracy when navigating within a menu system. 24 participants were given 8 menu...

The effect of uncertainty representation on information integration performance in a simulated ocean surveillance task

Creator:: Chou, Chung-di
Abstract:: Human operator performance was evaluated using two types of displays in a simulated ocean surveillance task. The two types of displays studied included a display in which position uncertainty information was given (polygon display) and a display in which uncertainty was not explicitly shown (line display). The experimental task was...

A paradigmatic framework for flight safety

Creator:: Routledge, Garry L.
Abstract:: Statistically, travel by air is one of the safest forms of transportation. Yet we continue to experience aviation tragedies. Do we fully understand flight safety or is there another way of looking at the problem? In this work a new way of approaching the question of flight safety is developed,...

Cockpit task management errors : an ASRS incident report study

Creator:: Madhavan, Devadasan
Abstract:: The flightcrew of a modern airliner operates in a multi-tasking environment with several tasks competing for the same attentional resources at the same time. Too many tasks vying for the crew's attention concurrently imposes a heavy workload on the flightcrew. This results in the satisfactory execution of some tasks at...

Functional analysis of flight crew performance : a systems engineering perspective on crew resource management

Creator:: Sukhia, Cherag R.
Abstract:: Many failures of interpersonal communication and coordination in the aircraft cockpit have been found to occur as a result of poor management of flightdeck 'resources'. Crew Resource Management (CRM) is a concept that has evolved within the aviation community to specifically address this issue of resource management. The concept of...

A study of the ergonomics of emergency stop pushbuttons

Creator:: Zárate, Patricia B.
Abstract:: Emergency stop controls are essential parts of industrial machinery because they are designed to stop the operation in case of emergencies without risks to operators, equipment, products, or facilities. Current guidelines for emergency stop controls have been formulated based on experience but not on empirical studies. The main objectives of...

The effect of automation on the frequency of Task Prioritization errors on commercial aircraft flight decks : an ASRS incident report study

Creator:: Wilson, Jennifer Rae
Abstract:: Task Management (TM) refers to the function in which the human operator manages his/her available sensory and mental resources in a dynamic, complex, safety-critical environment in order to accomplish the multiple tasks competing for a limited quantity of attention. There is reason to believe that the level of automation on...

The augmented stage model of human information processing : how well do cognitive abilities drawn from the stages in the model predict concurrent task management performance?

Creator:: Nicolalde Flores, Roberto Javier
Abstract:: Research in the aviation domain, driving distractions, anesthesia administration, and nuclear power plant control rooms show that Concurrent Task Management (CTM) is a process that every human operator performs when interacting with complex environments. The need for understanding concurrent task management in a broader perspective more applicable and generalizable to...

The effectiveness of cockpit task management training on task prioritization performance in simulated flight

Creator:: Bishara, Saher A.
Abstract:: The cockpit is an environment in which many important tasks simultaneously compete for pilot attention. Cockpit Task Management (CTM) is the process by which pilots selectively attend to flight tasks in such a way as to safely and effectively complete a flight. CTM has been categorized as a mental function...
