Enhancement of Human Effectiveness in System Design, Training, and Operation.

Abstract

The Progress Report is concerned with research performance and results on the contract during the period 1 Jul 1973 - 30 June 1974. On a very general classification level, the tasks are of two general types, those dealing with human resources research and those dealing with manned systems research. More specifically, four tasks (2, 4, 5, and 8) deal primarily with pilot selection and training, performance assessment, and the prediction of future operational effectiveness; three tasks (1, 3, and 7) deal with human perceptual and decision processes and with principles of aviation display, control, and computer-assisted manned system design; and Task 6 bridges both major research categories. Furthermore, several of the tasks (particularly 1, 4, 6, 7, and 8) are aimed at advancing human factors research methodology and theory.
