Constrained Planning and Wargame Performance in Military and Civilian Teams

Abstract

The TLCAC study, conducted during January 2001, involved two military and three civilian teams conducting planning activities under time constraint and fighting a battle with a designated enemy using the Janus wargame. This report outlines the planning behaviours observed in military and civilian participants, and briefly discusses their possible relation(s) with the wargame outcomes. It is concluded that the current behavioural results show a stronger association with the Recognitional Planning Model than the military appreciation process, indicating a need for further work in the area and a consideration of the foundation model of planning used.
