An Investigation of Training to Discriminate between the Tracked and Wheeled Vehicle Signals of the AN/TPS-33 Radar.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not it is possible to teach the discrimination between the signals produced by tracked and wheeled vehicles on the AN/TPS-33 radar. Ten junior grade officers received two day's training on twenty tape-recorded exercises. They were given criterion tests at the end of each day of training. The results showed that it is possible to obtain an average performance which is significantly better than chance. (Author)
