A Report of HumRRO Activities in Support of Project 'HITVAL'.
Abstract
The report describes activities dealing with human factors principles in the preparation and conduct of HITVAL, a Department of Defense field test evaluating the effectiveness of selected antiaircraft gun systems. The test evaluated hit probabilities for four types of non-U.S. antiaircraft guns firing and fixed and rotary wing aircraft. A task analysis was conducted of the crew positions of each gun system, providing a basis for determining the basic psychological skills and the visual and psychomotor skills required for each duty position. Tests were obtained or designed to test individual skills, and questionnaires were designed to obtain self ratings, peer ratings and supervisor ratings of motivation and morale factors. To assist in assigning the crews for the field test, psychological abilities of each potential crewman were compared with the skills judged to be critical for successful performance of each duty position.
