Abstract
A critical tracking task combination was examined for inclusion in an exotic environment test battery. Performance increased throughout 15 testing sessions despite the subjects' extensive prior tracking experience. However, consistent individual differences occurred only after Session 10. The implications of these results for research on exotic environments and timesharing abilities are discussed.Keywords
