Facilitating Communication For Aviation Training And Maintenance, Lorraine E. Holtaway, Kyle Jackson, Sarah M. Hubbard Ph.D.
Facilitating Communication For Aviation Training And Maintenance, Lorraine E. Holtaway, Kyle Jackson, Sarah M. Hubbard Ph.D.
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Maintenance errors are the primary cause of approximately 8% of commercial aircraft accidents worldwide. One factor that contributes to human errors is miscommunication. Clear communication is critical in aviation education and in aviation maintenance operations. A fundamental concept for clear communication is both the transmission and receipt of a common message. This research explores the miscommunication and misinterpretation of instructions used in maintenance training. Miscommunicationmay be due to ambiguity, use of jargon, and differentindividual interpretations and methods for standard practices. First, an example of a commonly misunderstood process is identified. Next, enhanced training tools are developed to reduce the likelihood …

Using Pair-Wise Rankings In The Assessment Of Adaptive Aiding, Christina Gruenwald, Matt Middendorf, Chelsea Credlebaugh, Jonathan Mead, Scott Galster
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
In remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) operations, operator cognitive workload is an important concern. High workload couldresult in performance decrements and operational mishaps. In research, physiological data can beused by models to assess the operator’s cognitive state. When a model detects the onset of cognitive overload, assistance could thenbe provided to the operator to help mitigate the overload in some form of augmentation. However, it is imperative that the assessment is accurate and completed in a timely manner. The accuracy of a workload assessment model and augmentation application canbe evaluated using a psychometrically determined scale of man/machine conditions. Both the operator …

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Loss of control –inflight (LOC-I) has historically represented the largest category of commercial aviation fatal accidents. A review of the worldwide transport airplane accidents (2001-2010) evinced that loss of attitude or energy state awareness was responsible for a large majority of the LOC-I events. A Commercial Aviation Safety Team (CAST) study of 18 worldwide loss-of-control accidents and incidents determined that flight crew loss of attitude awareness or energy state awareness due to lack of external visual reference cues was a significant causal factor in 17 of the 18 reviewed flights. CAST recommended that “Virtual Day-Visual Meteorological Condition” (Virtual Day-VMC) displays …
Incomplete Knowledge Of Results And The Manipulation Of Response Bias, Matthew J. Davis
Incomplete Knowledge Of Results And The Manipulation Of Response Bias, Matthew J. Davis
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
In signal detection theory, an optimal observer exploits all available information to achieve the desired goal of a particular decision strategy (Green & Swets, 1966). Detectionexperiments often provide the observer with complete knowledge of results (CKR) in order to ensure best possible performance for the task. If optimal behavior is indeed dependent upon CKR, then a degradation of that information should also reduce the likelihood of achieving optimal response bias. A single-interval auditory detection experiment was conducted to measure changes in response bias in the presence of incomplete knowledge of results(IKR) (i.e. feedback for some combination of true/false detections …
Longitudinal Safety Climate Analysis: Modeling For Enhanced Organizational Response, Erin E. Bowen, Brian J. Roggow
Longitudinal Safety Climate Analysis: Modeling For Enhanced Organizational Response, Erin E. Bowen, Brian J. Roggow
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Much of the safety climate research captures only a transient state in the aviation environment, by extension limiting organizational responses to transactional approaches. The limits of the transient annual safety climate audit traps safety attitudinal/behavioral research in a static or reactive cycle. The present study takes advantage of a collegiate aviation environment with multiple training locations (each with its own culture), participating in regular safety climate audits across flight operations, to develop an enhanced safety culture model. Using longitudinal climate data collected from the organization, the authors present a mixed-methods trend analysis of safety climate changes to date, incorporating organizational …

The Oculometer Training Tape Technique: The Revival, Carolina Diaz-Piedra, Andres Catena, Luis J. Fuentes, Leandro L. Di Stasi
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
The oculometer training tape technique (OT 3 ) aimsto enhance aviation training by 1) allowing theflightinstructors to provide real-time feedback, 2) improving debriefing sessions by playing back the traineepilot’s scan behavior, and 3) editing didactic videos based on the scan behavior of experienced pilots. Despite the original positive evaluations ofits usefulness, the OT 3 hasfailed to gain traction in aviation training programs. This is probably due to the technical difficulties as well as the intrusiveness/bulkiness of the equipment needed. Modern non-intrusive eye trackers,integrated witha forward facing scene-camera, can record pilots’ eye movements and, simultaneously, capture what the pilot sees. Here, …

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Our study aimedto collect enhancement proposals of Rafale fighter aircraft human-system interface. Proposals had to be innovative and complied with the needs of information for pilots regarding Rafale future capabilities. We developed amethodology based on a device enabling the simulation of a dynamic system activity that is theRafale integrated in its war environment. Creativity of front line pilots participating inthis experimentation has been stimulated but constraint by the necessity ofa useful production due to the risks associated to the modification of a fighter aircraft already operating since 2006. Each proposal has been analyzed and synthetized through the abstraction hierarchy model …
Effects Of An Ecological Interface On Flight Training Effectiveness, Ronald Deerenberg, M.M. (René) Van Paassen, Clark Borst, Max Mulder
Effects Of An Ecological Interface On Flight Training Effectiveness, Ronald Deerenberg, M.M. (René) Van Paassen, Clark Borst, Max Mulder
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
For Ecological Interface Design (EID), the underlying constraints and properties of an operator’s work domain are analysed and used as a basis for the design of the information displays, so that these may reveal these underlying mechanisms. Most evaluations for EID have been performed with expertor trained participants. However, it can be hypothesised that the effects of EID will alsochange the way tasks are learned by novices; since the EID designs support direct manipulation, and at the same time show the constraints in the work domain, a novice would be able to performthe task as a skill, employing the direct …

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Wedesigned a specific SA training module and tested whether it would enhance the SA competency of pilot trainees during initial training. Twelve pilot trainees took part to the empirical phase of the study. They were pseudo-randomly assigned to two conditions, the experimental group (n=6) who received the SA training module and the control group (n=6) who did not receive any specific SA training. All pilot trainees were assessed during a flight simulator session in order to evaluate objectively their levels of SA (SAGAT, Situation Awareness Global Assessment Technique, Endsley, 1995). Results highlighted that the SA levels …
Development Of A Model Of ‘See And Avoid’ In Parachuting, Victoria Cutler, Saskia Revell
Development Of A Model Of ‘See And Avoid’ In Parachuting, Victoria Cutler, Saskia Revell
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
The UK military undertakes in-depth investigations of serious parachuting accidents, which have recently included two mid-air collisions. The analysis of these accidents identified that collision avoidance in parachuting uses similar processes to the see-and-avoidtask performed by aircraft pilots. However, no research was identified that had explored see-and-avoid when parachuting. Accordingly, a model of parachuting see-and-avoidwas developed which consisted of six stages which must be performed in sequence for a collision to be avoided successfully. Each stage of see-and-avoid wasassociated with key errors, the likelihood of which wasinfluenced by a range of factors within the individual, their operating environment, and equipment. …

Quantifying Pilot Contribution To Flight Safety During An In-Flight Airspeed Failure, Timothy J. Etherington, Rockwell Collins, Lynda J. Kramer, Randall E. Bailey, Kellie D. Kennedey
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Accident statistics cite the flight crew as a causal factor in over 60% of large transport fatal accidents. Yet a well-trained and well-qualified crew is acknowledged as the critical center point of aircraft systemssafety and an integral component of the entire commercial aviation system. A human-in-the-loop test was conducted using a Level D certifiedBoeing 737-800 simulator to evaluate the pilot’s contribution to safety-of-flight during routine air carrier flightoperations and in response to system failures. To quantify the human’s contribution, crew complement was used as an independent variable in a between-subjects design. This paper details the crew’s actions and responses while …

Self-Deception And Impression Management In Commercial Pilots: An Underreported And Potential Confound In Aviation Research, Tabitha T. Black, Ryan Sain, Steven M. Vera
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
A concern when administering questionnaires is whether the participant is providing information that is accurate. The Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding(BIDR) was used to assess commercial pilots’ socially desirable responding resulting in two profiles: Impression management (IM; faking bad) and self-deceptive enhancement (SDE; faking good). These pilots’ profiles were compared to the Aviation Safety Locus of Control(ASLOC) scale, used to measure external (ASLOC-E) or internal (ASLOC-I)orientation, and the Crew Resource Management Training Survey(CRMTS)developed from the Federal Aviation Administration’s guidelines for CRM. The results from the SDE indicated that over a fourth of the participants responded in a …

Individual Pilot Factors Predict Diversion Management During A Simulated Cross- Country Vfr Flight, Kathleen Van Benthem Ph.D., Chris M. Herdman Ph.D.
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
The risk of an accident during general aviation (GA) flight increases when pilots are required to make unexpected diversions. Specifically, a diversion may result in loss of situation awareness (SA). Loss of SA is associated with controlled flight into terrain,incorrect trajectory for orbiting or landing, or becoming lost en route. In the present study, 44 GA pilots (aged 41 to 74 years) flew a cross-country route in a Cessna 172 simulator and encountered an unexpected diversion to an alternate aerodrome. The outcome measure consisted of a diversion management score. Significant predictors of diversion management were pilot age and license, a …

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Human-autonomous systems have the potential to mitigate pilot cognitive impairment and improve aviation safety.A research team at NASA Langley conducted an experiment to study the impact of mild normobaric hypoxia induction on aircraft pilot performance and psychophysiological state. A within-subjects design involved non-hypoxic and hypoxic exposures while performing three 10-minute tasks.Results indicated the effect of 15,000 feet simulated altitude did not induce significant performance decrementbut did produce increasein perceived workload. Analyses of psychophysiological responses evince the potential of biomarkers for hypoxia onset. This study represents on-going work at NASA intending to add to the current knowledge of psychophysiologically-based input to …
Warhorse: A New Approach To Manned/Unmanned Teaming, Paul Schutte, Ralph Williams, Ronald Daiker
Warhorse: A New Approach To Manned/Unmanned Teaming, Paul Schutte, Ralph Williams, Ronald Daiker
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
This paper presents a multi-human/multi-vehicle control and integration concept called Warhorse. Warhorse is a control paradigm that is applied to all vehicles (air or ground) that are used in conducting operations. The Warhorse concept aids humans in developing operational plans, enacting a plan using single or multiple vehicles (manned and/or unmanned), and individually controlling a single vehicle (i.e., one-on-one). It synergistically integrates the human with the machine so that the warfighter can bring all their skills and experience to bear on accomplishing the mission.

Human-Machine Articulation Work: Functional Dependency Dialogue For Human-Machine Teaming, Clayton D. Rothwell, Valerie L. Shalin
Human-Machine Articulation Work: Functional Dependency Dialogue For Human-Machine Teaming, Clayton D. Rothwell, Valerie L. Shalin
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
Articulation work is an overlooked requirement for successful human-machine teams. Articulation work captures the often hidden task management activities human-human teams regularly perform in response to functional dependencies amongst team members. While human-human teams demonstrate articulation work through language, human-machine teams currently do not. Aviation is replete with examples, from the superficially mundane adaptation inherent in the turnaround of commercial aircraft to the life-threatening misunderstanding in Turkish Airlines Flight 1951 and Asiana Flight 214. Current research in human-machine language-mediated interaction has failed to study tasks that are sufficiently complicated to require articulation work, resulting in a misleading optimism about the …

How Automation May Transform The Ways In Which Crew Manage Peak Workload And Incapacitation, Nick Mcdonald, Alison Kay, Rabea Morrison, Margaret Ryan
How Automation May Transform The Ways In Which Crew Manage Peak Workload And Incapacitation, Nick Mcdonald, Alison Kay, Rabea Morrison, Margaret Ryan
International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2017
A ‘Crew Manage the Operation’ concept was developed as a unifying framework to analysethe combined role of diverse technologies in supporting the management of peak workload and incapacitation. Multiple-crew configurations meanthat many of the same technologies are supporting quite contrasting instantiation of crew roles. While Proactive and Immediate modes support the independence of the crew in their cockpit, both reactive modes of workload management pose questions about the information flow between the cockpit and ground control, and in turn about the level of support or, in the final mode, effective interventionthat could be provided from the ground. These issues are …
