Further Study of Target Handoff Techniques.

Abstract

A series of studies were aimed at improving the performance of aviators engaged in target handoff. This report focuses on selection and training as avenues to improved performance and on the role of long range target recognition and identification. Results indicate that simple unguided practice under simulated conditions may be the most effective means of improving hand-off performance. The report is written for behavioral scientists, although results are of interest to military personnel. (Author)
