Microsaint Applications: Documentation of JWGDG MILPERF Performance Assessment System.

Abstract

To make detailed and accurate predictions of the efforts of chemical defense drugs on operational performance will require (1) increasing the detail in which both laboratory and operational performance measures are described and quantified and (2) improving the techniques used to generalize changes observed in the laboratory to tasks performed in operational settings. This final report outlines an approach to developing computational performance models that reflect the structure of laboratory and operational performance. Such models can substantially increase the detail in which performance is quantified. To effectively use such models in prediction will require developing procedures for linking the parameters of laboratory tasks to those of operational tasks. The linking process is discussed, along with some alternative approaches to prediction. Keywords: Human performance; Modeling; Performance assessment; Task analysis; Volunteers. (sdw)
