Longitudinal Applications Of Stepladder Technique For Enhancing Group Performance, Conner Lutterman
Longitudinal Applications Of Stepladder Technique For Enhancing Group Performance, Conner Lutterman
Discovery Day - Prescott
Stepladder technique is intended to improve decision making in small groups by structuring the entry of group members, ensuring that each member contributes to the decision-making process. Previous research has employed the stepladder technique for intellective exercises of short duration. Here, we examined a more realistic application of the stepladder technique to a longitudinal project team engaged in a design/build/ test engineering program. Application of stepladder technique beyond a laboratory/one-time setting is a unique addition to the team performance research. Preliminary data indicates that the stepladder technique is effective in a longitudinal project more aligned to typical organization applications; constraints, …
Study Abroad For Transformational Learning Opportunities To Build Cultural Intelligence, Nicholas Tran
Study Abroad For Transformational Learning Opportunities To Build Cultural Intelligence, Nicholas Tran
Undergraduate Research Symposium - Prescott
Recent research points to questions on the value for students studying abroad while in college. Our conceptual paper links the transformative learning theory to the three dimensions of cultural intelligence to highlight the value of study abroad to provide life-changing learning opportunities. Through disorienting dilemmas and a process of cultivating critical reflection, study abroad students will generate new meaning schemes, or “habits of the mind” to view the world. In addition to critical reflection, the role of emotions plays a critical role in the development of self-awareness. These transformational learning experiences interconnect with the three-dimensional model of cultural intelligence through …
Flight Instructor Professionalism, Kenneth P. Byrnes Ph.D.
Flight Instructor Professionalism, Kenneth P. Byrnes Ph.D.
National Training Aircraft Symposium (NTAS)
The inherent risk associated with aviation demands a high level of professionalism among aviation employees to ensure safety. Professionalism consists of factors such as technical competence, personal competence, neatness and attractiveness of dress, and personal conduct. Many of these factors are able to be taught, measured, or judged. However, conduct is an intangible quality that is not easily taught or quantified. As such, the professional behavior of aviation personnel is difficult for the FAA to mandate and regulate. An individual’s conduct is a learned behavior that originates through culture, role models, and experience. In aviation, conduct is instilled during the …

Social Facilitation And Its Effects On The Errors Of Commission In A Vigilance Task, Sean P. Bowser, Cristina A. Chirino, James L. Szalma
Human Factors and Applied Psychology Student Conference
Vigilance is known as sustained attention over a prolonged period of time in which respondents are required to respond to critical signals. Vigilance is crucial in a variety of settings and situations. However, when placed on a simple and repetitive task, such as security detail scanning bags or watching a radar in an airport control tower, performance on these vigilance tends to decline with time spent performing the task continuously. This pattern is referred to as the vigilance decrement. In addition to the decrement, errors of commission, or “false alarms”, occur more frequently as time on task increases. In the …

Predicting Mobile Mental Telehealth Usability Based On Individual Differences, Alexis R. Dewar, Nicole Crossland, Angelica Whiteley, Tyler P. Bull, Michael A. Rupp, Jessica R. Michaelis, James L. Szalma
Human Factors and Applied Psychology Student Conference
Due to the increased need for the delivery of successful mental health interventions in special populations (i.e., military personnel, rural populations, aging populations, etc.), mobile mental telehealth applications have been developed to supplement patient-practitioner interaction. While there is a great deal of work on both patient and practitioner satisfaction with mobile mental telehealth devices, little is known about the influence of individual differences on user perceptions of usability and usefulness. The present study seeks to better predict the usability of mobile mental telehealth applications by drawing from the Technology Acceptance Model (Davis & Venkatesh, 1996; Venkatesh & Davis, 2000; Venkatesh, …
