Military Unmanned Aircraft System Operators: Training And Human Performance Issues, Joseph V. Cohn, Brent A. Older ., Dr. Richard D. Arnold, Elizabeth B. O'Neill
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Unmanned Aviation System (UAS) have leveraged considerably from the manned aviation approach. This approach was useful to jumpstart this technology but it is now time to find a more efficient and up-to-date approach, keeping with the capabilities and limitation of the concurrent technology. Three technical areas to mature and address the current limitations are recommended: 1) Selection for UAS Personnel (SUPer), to accurately forecast candidate UAS operator performance across UAS platforms and missions; 2) Distributed, Adaptive & Modular entities for UAS (DyAdeM), to automatically generate realistic & adaptive synthetic environments for simulated UAS training; and, 3) UAS Control Station Human …
Exploring The Boundaries Of Command And Control Models Of Distributed Team Performance In Aviation And Aerospace Operations, Haydee M. Cuevas, Barrett S. Caldwell
Exploring The Boundaries Of Command And Control Models Of Distributed Team Performance In Aviation And Aerospace Operations, Haydee M. Cuevas, Barrett S. Caldwell
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Traditional command and control (C2) models focus on a centralized command managing and directing one or more subordinate elements to perform required functions. However, in distributed C2 environments, a human commander has less ability to fully understand and control the behavior of "agents" (either human domain experts or autonomous automated systems) in real-time operations. In this paper, we explore the situational, information, and human performance issues that constrain the appropriateness of classical C2 system design, and highlight the need for distributed C2 information flow capabilities, in contemporary humanhuman and human-automation teams. We discuss these issues in the context of modern …
Manned-Unmanned Teaming: Training Us Army Unmanned Aircraft System Operators In The Scout-Reconnaissance Role, John E. Stewart
Manned-Unmanned Teaming: Training Us Army Unmanned Aircraft System Operators In The Scout-Reconnaissance Role, John E. Stewart
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Until recently, U.S. Army unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) were intelligence-gathering platforms. The UAS mission has recently changed from strategic intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) to scout-reconnaissance (SR) operations. This shift has produced an increased requirement for coordination between manned and unmanned aircraft. Mannedunmanned teaming (MUM-T) requires that UAS operators become knowledgeable and proficient in the same scout-reconnaissance (SR) skills as pilots of armed helicopters. This paper summarizes the many training challenges consequent to the move from ISR to SR roles. It will review completed and ongoing research efforts by the Army Research Institute (ARI) Fort Rucker element, which investigated (a) …

Structuring, Analyzing And Monitoring Problems And Decision Making Processes At Civil Air Navigation Sets Of A Public Organization, Lisia Maria Espinola Da Silva Pacheco Cabral, Marcos Pereira Estellita Lins
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
This article presents the partial application of a post-graduation doctoral study developed at civil Air Navigation sets of a public organization, on operational work stations: Tower; APP – Approach; and AIS - Aeronautical Information System Room. Its main goal is to demonstrate how Concept Map was used as a Multi-methodology and an instrument of SODA - Strategic Options and Development Analysis, in SOR - Soft-Operational Research, for PSM - Problem Structuring Methods, to contribute for structuring, analyzing and monitoring problems and decision making processes, by optimizing interdisciplinary “iteractions” and interactions to: promote System and Rational Thinking; reduce self-deception and increase …
Using Animated Graphics On Aircraft Navigation Displays; Pros And Cons, Chang-Geun Ph
Using Animated Graphics On Aircraft Navigation Displays; Pros And Cons, Chang-Geun Ph
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
An advantage of animations is improving an operator' ability to reconstruct information space. However, research also shows there can be disadvantages to the use of animation including the mismatch of the operations concepts of speed or motion of the task and the perceptions of the animation. An exploratory study was conducted to determine pilot opinions of whether animation would help them to respond to a route change instructions from Air Traffic Control rapidly and with high levels of interpretation accuracy. Many pilots indicated that animation would support their performance, but that animation should be optional and pilots should be able …
Outcome-Based Risk Pathways: Utilizing Safety Reports To Understand Risks In Air Traffic Control, Katherine A. Berry, Michael W. Sawyer, Edward M. Austrian
Outcome-Based Risk Pathways: Utilizing Safety Reports To Understand Risks In Air Traffic Control, Katherine A. Berry, Michael W. Sawyer, Edward M. Austrian
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Many accident investigation taxonomies have been developed over the years to assist in identifying and classifying causal factors and errors involved in near misses events and accidents. While these taxonomies are often used to better understand individual events, they also offer the potential for quantifying the relationships between causal factors and errors to better understand emerging systemic issues. In an effort to extend beyond traditional frequency-based accident analysis, this work details the relationships among causal factors by examining any differences among outcome types. An analysis of 417 Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) reports yielded five key risk pathways present in …
Design And Evaluation Of A Co-Planar Separation Display, J. Ellerbroek, K.C.R. Brantegem, M.M. Van Paassen, M. Mulder
Design And Evaluation Of A Co-Planar Separation Display, J. Ellerbroek, K.C.R. Brantegem, M.M. Van Paassen, M. Mulder
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
This paper describes the design and evaluation of a co-planar constraint-based airborne separation assistance display. The display is a combination of previous single-plane presentations, with additional visualization of the interactions that exist between these planes. Each of these displays combines a spatial representation of the airspace with a velocity maneuver space, that relates own aircraft maneuver variables to the shape and affordances of the airspace. The evaluation presented in this paper consisted of two experiments: an active conflict resolution task, and a passive SA assessment. Both experiments compare the co-planar concept with a baseline display that is very similar, but …
Evaluating Asap (Anticipation Support For Aeronautical Planning): A User-Centered Case Study, Sami Lini, Christophe Bey, Sylvain Hourlier, Bruno Vallespir, Axel Johnston, Pierre-Alexandre Favier
Evaluating Asap (Anticipation Support For Aeronautical Planning): A User-Centered Case Study, Sami Lini, Christophe Bey, Sylvain Hourlier, Bruno Vallespir, Axel Johnston, Pierre-Alexandre Favier
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
During ISAP 2011, we presented an early work about the theoretical background for the design of an anticipation support for civilian pilots. Two years later, the ASAP (Anticipation Support for Aeronautical Planning) project has grown and a preliminary version of our anticipation support has been implemented. Following a cognitive engineering approach, users were involved at each step of the design. An intermediate study allowed refining the information processing in order to better fit the actual need. On the basis of interviews and activity analysis, functionalities were implemented aiming at improving anticipation skills. In the context of a flight simulator and …
Visualization Of Pairwise Conflict Resolution For Air Traffic Control, M.M. (Rene) Van Paassen
Visualization Of Pairwise Conflict Resolution For Air Traffic Control, M.M. (Rene) Van Paassen
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Air traffic capacity is mainly bound by Air Traffic Controller (ATCo) workload, which leads to problems in the view of the steadily increasing demand for air transport. Additional automation tools to support the ATCo in his current working practices are necessary. Visualization of control possibilities for aircraft by means of the “Solution Space” approach provides a first step in this direction. However, these visualizations focus on the control possibilities for a single aircraft, and a known problem is relating the indicated conflict back to the involved aircraft. This paper discusses the design of a visualization that shows the maneuvering options …

Uas In The Nas: Survey Responses By Atc, Manned Aircraft Pilots, And Uas Pilots, James R. Comstock Jr., Raymon Mcadaragh, Rania W. Ghatas, Daniel W. Burdette, Anna C. Trujillo
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
NASA currently is working with industry and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to establish future requirements for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) flying in the National Airspace System (NAS). To work these issues NASA has established a multi-center “UAS Integration in the NAS” project. In order to establish Ground Control Station requirements for UAS, the perspective of each of the major players in NAS operations was desired. Three on-line surveys were administered that focused on Air Traffic Controllers (ATC), pilots of manned aircraft, and pilots of UAS. Follow-up telephone interviews were conducted with some survey respondents. The survey questions addressed UAS …
Control Of Multiple Unmanned Vehicles: A Capacity Model From A Meta-Analysis, Christopher D. Wickens, Mala Gosakan, Marc Gacy, Lila Laux
Control Of Multiple Unmanned Vehicles: A Capacity Model From A Meta-Analysis, Christopher D. Wickens, Mala Gosakan, Marc Gacy, Lila Laux
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
How many unmanned systems can the operator effectively control and/or supervise before the operator begins to experience higher mental workload, thus losing SA and degrading overall mission performance? In this paper we describe the results of a literature search that was undertaken to identify factors of particular importance to the control of unmanned systems. We present the architecture for a computational model of the controller of multiple UVs that accounts for the diminishing gains in overall mission productivity and eventual loss in productivity that appears to occur as the number of vehicles under supervision, N, increases.
Coordination In Distributed Unmanned Aircraft Systems, Rosemarie Reynolds
Coordination In Distributed Unmanned Aircraft Systems, Rosemarie Reynolds
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Our objectives in this paper are to: (1) explicate the link between UAS accidents and coordination, and (2) to provide prescriptive guidelines for improving coordination in distributed UAS. To accomplish these goals we will review the literature on team coordination, examine how distribution impacts that process, identify the areas in which coordination plays a critical role in UAS incidents and accidents, and conclude with some prescriptions for improving UAS team coordination.
The Integration Of New Technology Into A Complex System, Kelly Neville, Beth Blickensderfer, Katherine Kaste, Stephen L. Dorton, Stephen P. Luxion
The Integration Of New Technology Into A Complex System, Kelly Neville, Beth Blickensderfer, Katherine Kaste, Stephen L. Dorton, Stephen P. Luxion
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
This paper describes an evaluation of the impacts of introducing change into the established complex system of UAS operations. Two technologies not currently used in UAS operations, a backup communications system and a traffic display, were operated by Guardian UAS pilots as they shadowed live UAS flights in a back-up control station. The flights were demonstration rather than research flights; we nonetheless were able to make the most of the opportunity and collect observation, survey, and interview data to gain insight into effects of the technology insertions. Technology-insertion impacts and recommended technology adaptations were categorized into emergent themes. The identified …
Issues Relevant For Synthetic Teammate – Human Teammate Interactions In Operations Of A Synthetic Unmanned Aerial System, Nancy J. Cooke, Christopher W. Myers
Issues Relevant For Synthetic Teammate – Human Teammate Interactions In Operations Of A Synthetic Unmanned Aerial System, Nancy J. Cooke, Christopher W. Myers
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Two experiments are reported that set the stage for a project in which an ACT-R based Air Vehicle Operator will interact with two human teammates in an Unmanned Aerial System synthetic environment. Of interest are the ways in which the synthetic teammate fails to coordinate in an effective manner with humans. In Experiment 1, the new communication mode of text chat is compared to voice communications used previously in this task environment with all human participants. Issues of team performance and coordination were examined and differences noted particularly due to lag in the asynchronous chat mode. In Experiment 2 a …
Examining Memory For Search Using A Simulated Aerial Search And Rescue Task, Brandon S. Perelman, Shane T. Mueller
Examining Memory For Search Using A Simulated Aerial Search And Rescue Task, Brandon S. Perelman, Shane T. Mueller
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
In this paper, we report on the development of a synthetic task environment (STE) representing wilderness search and rescue using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for investigating human unmanned aerial search behavior. Participants navigated using a north up topographical map and detected targets using a more detailed track up satellite image representing the view through the UAV’s camera. Participants then completed (1) a path reconstruction task and (2) a memory test in which they indicated locations where they found targets. These tasks aim to address two information types that map onto distinct visual processing pathways afferent to the hippocampus. We discuss …
Risk Perception In Ecological Information Systems, J. Comans, C. Borst, M.M. Van Paassen, M. Mulder
Risk Perception In Ecological Information Systems, J. Comans, C. Borst, M.M. Van Paassen, M. Mulder
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
One issue that regularly occurs in the context of ecological information systems is that these systems can invite operators to migrate to the limits of system performance. This could lead to the assumption that ecological systems are thus inherently unsafe. We argue, however, that the source of this issue is tied to a modeling problem of the work domain. That is, the majority of ecological systems predominantly model the physical or causal structure of the work domain, thereby neglecting the intentional structure. Many complex systems contain a mix of physical and intentional (i.e., rules, procedures, and regulations) that contribute to …
North-Up, Track-Up, And Camera-Up Navigation Of Unmanned Aircraft Systems, Sheryl L. Chappell, R. Brian Valimont
North-Up, Track-Up, And Camera-Up Navigation Of Unmanned Aircraft Systems, Sheryl L. Chappell, R. Brian Valimont
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
To optimize UAV reconnaissance operations, direction of viewing and direction of travel must be allowed to diverge. Our challenge was to design a control and display strategy to allow the operator to easily look where they’re going, go where they’re looking, and look and go in different directions. Two methods of control were devised to align traveling forward, viewing forward and commanding forward. The operator can command the UAS to turn to camera or command the camera to point in line with the direction of travel (eyes forward). We have also introduced a new camera-up map orientation. The operator can …
Able Flight: Increasing Aviation Opportunities For People With Disabilities, Jennifer Kirschner, Branden Avery, Wes Majors, Erin Bowen, Bernard Wulle
Able Flight: Increasing Aviation Opportunities For People With Disabilities, Jennifer Kirschner, Branden Avery, Wes Majors, Erin Bowen, Bernard Wulle
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Access to certain aviation careers has traditionally been limited for people with disabilities. Although the Americans with Disability (ADA) Act of 1990 mandated that disabled applicants be given equal consideration for jobs for which they can perform the essential job functions, stereotypes and lack of knowledge about career opportunities may prevent qualified disabled people from apply in the first place. In order to remove perceived barriers to participation and to increase the visibility of opportunities for both life success and employment within the aviation industry for people with disabilities, the Purdue University Aviation Technology department has begun to participate in …
Adaptive Automation For Multiple Aerial Vehicle Supervisory Control: Impact Of Changing Automation Levels, Heath Ruff, Gloria Calhoun, Crystal Miller, Chad Breeden
Adaptive Automation For Multiple Aerial Vehicle Supervisory Control: Impact Of Changing Automation Levels, Heath Ruff, Gloria Calhoun, Crystal Miller, Chad Breeden
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Adaptive automation may help balance system autonomy with human interaction in supervisory control environments. Recent results have demonstrated a benefit of performance-based adaptive automation in a multiple unmanned aerial vehicle simulation. However, these findings may instead reflect an attentional benefit from having the task autonomy level change. A betweensubjects experimental design was employed to test this possibility. In one group task autonomy level changed with task performance; in the other group levels changed as a function of time elapsed. The results indicated that performance did not significantly differ between the two groups. However, there were significantly more autonomy level changes …
The Impact Of Binaural Beat Technology On Vigilance Task Performance, Mental Workload, And Psychological Stress, Elizabeth A. Shoda, Gary N. Burns
The Impact Of Binaural Beat Technology On Vigilance Task Performance, Mental Workload, And Psychological Stress, Elizabeth A. Shoda, Gary N. Burns
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Vigilance research dates back to WWII when psychologists attempted to explain why sonar radar operators were missing signals allowing German U-boats to pass undetected. This error in vigilance was termed the vigilance decrement. Since WWII the vigilance decrement has been responsible for a number of military, commercial, and industrial accidents and deaths. One possible area of interest which may help to solve this problem is called binaural beat technology. Binaural beats operate by entraining the brain in a frequency following response. Depending on the frequency of the binaural beat, different psychological and physiological results can occur. The current study examined …
Experimental Effective Intensity Of Steady And Flashing Light Emitting Diodes For Aircraft Anti-Collision Lighting, Chris Yakopcic, John Puttmann, Benjamin R. Kunz ., Clara Ang, Ashley Mcpherson, David Santez, Matt Donovan, John Skarzynski, Joshua Trick, Andrew Mead ., Nelda Milburn ., Nazih E. Khaouly
Experimental Effective Intensity Of Steady And Flashing Light Emitting Diodes For Aircraft Anti-Collision Lighting, Chris Yakopcic, John Puttmann, Benjamin R. Kunz ., Clara Ang, Ashley Mcpherson, David Santez, Matt Donovan, John Skarzynski, Joshua Trick, Andrew Mead ., Nelda Milburn ., Nazih E. Khaouly
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Research was conducted to determine the effective intensity of flashing lights that incorporate light-emitting diodes (LEDs). LEDs require less power and have the ability to flash without the addition of moving parts. Compared with incandescent bulbs, however, LEDs yield a different spectral output and a different intensity profile when flashing. To determine the effect of these differences on a viewer’s ability to detect the light, we examined LEDs to determine if they can successfully replace legacy technologies/assemblies on aircraft. The LED was displayed to naïve subjects to establish visibility thresholds using an automated system to drive the LED with variable …
Evaluation Of A Peripherally-Located Instrument Landing Display Under Dual-Task Conditions, Zachary Spielman, Joseph Vargas, Taleri Hammack, Nathan Bulkey, Roger Lew, Brian P. Dyre
Evaluation Of A Peripherally-Located Instrument Landing Display Under Dual-Task Conditions, Zachary Spielman, Joseph Vargas, Taleri Hammack, Nathan Bulkey, Roger Lew, Brian P. Dyre
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Previous research found that a peripherally-located instrument landing system (ILS) embedded in a head-up display (HUD) supported equal or better control of glide-path during simulated approach and landing than the traditional centrally-located MIL-STD ILS. Here, we used a dualtask paradigm to examine whether gains in landing precision with the peripheral ILS are also accompanied by a reduction in mental workload. Participants controlled glide-path during simulated instrument landings while simultaneously performing a secondary task monitoring a head-down engine display for fault states. We varied the type of ILS (peripheral vs. MIL-STD) and assessed mental workload using the NASA-TLX and primary and …
Improving Student Retention With The Creation Of A Student Chapter Of A Professional Organization, John H. Mott, Hunter R. Musselman
Improving Student Retention With The Creation Of A Student Chapter Of A Professional Organization, John H. Mott, Hunter R. Musselman
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Significant research demonstrating the connection between student retention and student-peer interaction is extant. Such interaction is facilitated by the creation and growth of a student chapter of a professional organization that welcomes students who might not be otherwise engaged on campus and encourages their involvement in the organization. Benefits are multiplied when the organization is located at a joint facility which houses a lower two-year program feeding an upper two-year completion program, as it can be shown that the students groups who benefit the most from student-peer interaction are students indigenous to the institution and transfer students from two-year institutions. …
The National Aviation Operational Monitoring Service: Development Of A Survey Methodology, Mary M. Connors, Robert Mauro, Irving C. Statler
The National Aviation Operational Monitoring Service: Development Of A Survey Methodology, Mary M. Connors, Robert Mauro, Irving C. Statler
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
The National Aviation Operational Monitoring Service (NAOMS) was a research project designed to develop a methodology for acquiring information on changes over time in safety-related events occurring in the National Airspace System. A scientifically designed survey was used to measure the experiences of front-line operators and to evaluate trends that could compromise safety. Information from NAOMS could be the first indication of a developing situation, providing the basis for further investigation using other sources. This paper reports on a demonstration of the NAOMS concept through development and conduct of a survey of air carrier pilots. Data from over 18,000 randomly …
Synthetic Task Environments And The Three Body Problem, John M. Flach
Synthetic Task Environments And The Three Body Problem, John M. Flach
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
The challenge for our panel was to address the opportunities and challenges of synthetic task environments for basic research on human performance in sociotechnical systems. In doing this, the classical three-body problem from physics is used as a metaphor to illustrate the contrast between dyadic and triadic semiotic models of cognitive systems. In the context of this metaphor, synthetic task environments offer a means to bring some of the additional complexities of triadic semiotic systems under experimental control where converging empirical methods can help to titrate through the additional complexity to distill basic theoretical insights that will potentially have practical …
Extending Mission Operations Safty Audits (Mosa) Research To An Indian Sub Continent Island Airline, Sue Burdekin
Extending Mission Operations Safty Audits (Mosa) Research To An Indian Sub Continent Island Airline, Sue Burdekin
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
The aim of the Mission Operations Safety Audit (MOSA) research is to validate behavioural self-reported data from professional pilots, so that management can have confidence in this safety-critical debriefing information, and feed it back into the training continuum. In doing so, a safety loop can be established in a cost effective, operationally specific and timely program of data collection. The first study was conducted in a military F/A-18 Hornet simulator. Pilots were asked to self-report on their own operational performance across a predetermined selection of behavioural categories designed in conjunction with subject matter experts. To further test the MOSA methodology, …
An Investigation And Analysis Of The Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex In A Vibration Environment, Daniel Uribe, Michael E. Miller, Suzanne Smith
An Investigation And Analysis Of The Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex In A Vibration Environment, Daniel Uribe, Michael E. Miller, Suzanne Smith
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Helmet Mounted Displays (HMDs) and their integration into military systems have greatly improved. However, previous research has demonstrated degraded visual performance when an HMD user is subject to whole-body, low-frequency vibration. This effect has been attributed to the effect of the Vesitbular-Ocular Reflex as it stabilizes the eye with respect to the external environment, causing eye movement with respect to the HMD. This research sought to understand the VOR as a function of whole-body, low-frequency, z-axis vibration. A human subject experiment was executed to measure the effect of whole-body, low-frequency vibration on eye movements recorded with Electro-oculagraphy (EOG) while performing …
Visual Perspective Illusions As Aviation Mishap Causal Factors, Frederick R. Patterson, Richard D. Arnold ., Henry P. Williams .
Visual Perspective Illusions As Aviation Mishap Causal Factors, Frederick R. Patterson, Richard D. Arnold ., Henry P. Williams .
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
In the past, aviation spatial disorientation (SD) has been considered predominantly an isolated vestibular problem, associated with lack of outside visual cues. Recent research has challenged the prevailing position by suggesting pilot SD is more commonly caused by problems with cognitive processing of visual spatial strategies. Among the confounding visual stimuli known to occur in-flight, several visual perspective illusions have been identified as reoccurring mishap causal factors. These illusions occur in part because humans exhibit a strong instinctive tendency toward considering themselves level with distant horizontal references, regardless of their true altitude. Also contributing to perspective illusion occurrence is the …
Mismatches Between Automation And Human Strategies: An Investigation Into Future Air Traffic Management Decision Aiding, Carl A. Westin, Clark Borst, Brian Hilburn
Mismatches Between Automation And Human Strategies: An Investigation Into Future Air Traffic Management Decision Aiding, Carl A. Westin, Clark Borst, Brian Hilburn
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2013
Future air traffic management will have to rely on more, and more sophisticated, automation to accommodate predicted air traffic. However, studies across various domains have shown that user acceptance of automation decreases when the authority of decision-making automation increases. As a result, low user acceptance could lead to disuse of an automated tool and threaten potential safety and performance benefits. Through a series of human-in-the-loop simulations, the work described in this paper examined the interacting effects of air traffic complexity and strategic conformance, i.e., the fit between human and machine strategies, on automation acceptance in a conflict detection and resolution …
