Abstract
This paper describes the task analysis procedures and data obtained to support development of a part-task trainer for a CBI military training system (as well as various training aids and recommendations), and the trainer design and evaluation. This was part of a two-year R&D program which was unique in that the trainer was designed based upon data derived from an integrated task analysis methodology which incorporated both cognitive and behavioral methods. Because the task to be trained, electronic warfare, is an area with a complex conceptual base and heavy decision-making components, the task analysis was primarily cognitive. The task analysis provided information about expert versus novice mental models, and effective heuristics and algorithms for problem solving.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
