Decision-making behaviors of preservice teachers as they plan for social studies in elementary classrooms

Creator:: Basye, Cynthia
Abstract:: Instructional time for social studies in elementary classrooms has decreased since the passage of Goals 2000 and No Child Left Behind, with content contracted to align with reading goals. Consequently, opportunities for preservice teachers to observe and teach social studies lessons have diminished. This qualitative multiple case study examines the...

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...

A preliminary study for task management environment external validation: correlation between continuous, discrete and mixed scenarios

Creator:: Vasquez Aguirre, Carlos Andres
Abstract:: Concurrent Task Management (CTM) can be defined as the process that human operators of complex systems perform to allocate their attention among multiple, simultaneous tasks. A challenge of CTM research is to create an experimental environment which is complex enough to model a real world multitasking situation. Also, this system...

Scientists' perspectives on the importance of scientific communication in natural resource decision-making

Creator:: Shaw, Christine Michelle
Abstract:: Natural resource decisions require consideration at many levels, ranging from how one invertebrate will be affected by a nearby road, to how an entire watershed will be transformed by a massive clearcut. Considerations reach farther than just the local ecological community-human communities, economies, and future impacts on the communities and...

A mathematical modeling framework for scheduling and managing multiple concurrent tasks

Creator:: Shakeri, Shakib
Abstract:: Occurrence of human error in highly complex systems, such as a cockpit, can be disastrous and/or overwhelmingly costly. Mismanagement of multiple concurrent tasks has been observed by researchers to be a type of repetitive human error in previous studies of accidents and incidents. This error may occur in the form...

Information and analysis techniques for making crop selection decisions

Creator:: Bristol, Roger Dale
Abstract:: Twenty managers of large diversified irrigated farms in the Willamette Valley area of Oregon were interviewed about the economic information and analysis techniques they use when making crop selection decisions. Two community college farm management instructors, two agricultural lenders, and two certified public accountants working with farmers were interviewed about...

Development and evaluation of multiple criteria decision-making approaches to watershed management

Creator:: Lamy, France
Abstract:: Decision-making in environmental management is complex due to the multiplicity arid diversity of management objectives and technological choices. This suggests that modelers and experts could utilize (I) multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approaches to assist stakeholder groups in integrating and synthesizing relevant data and information to address ecological and socio-economic concerns and...

Decision support systems for forest biodiversity management : a review of tools and an analytical-deliberative framework for understanding their successful application

Creator:: Gordon, Sean N.
Abstract:: The complexity of forest management has increased with the scope of resources of concern and the level of scrutiny from stakeholders. The design and use of specialized computer software, often referred to as “decision support systems” (DSS), is one method for helping managers deal with this complexity. DSS have proven...

Autonomous Decision Making Facing Uncertainty, Risk, and Complexity

Creator:: Short, Ada-Rhodes
Abstract:: The creation of autonomous decision makers to handle potentially hazardous or logistically complicated tasks is desirable for the purpose of reducing human labor and exposure to risk, and for increasing the general performance of autonomous systems in a wide variety of environments. However, traditional autonomous decision makers perform poorly when...

Reproductive decision-making in young women breast cancer survivors

Creator:: Everson, Courtney Louise
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to use an integrated biocultural perspective to examine the decision-making processes of young survivors as they navigate breast cancer treatment and reproductive health care options. This retrospective study utilizes a mixed-methods approach that integrates quantitative survey data (Phase I) with interview (Phase II) and...
