Abstract

Multitasking abilities are vital for conducting flight missions. Traditional theories of multitasking suggest that cognitive resources represent a determining factor of said performance. The current study takes a different approach by investigating how the stability-flexibility-dilemma of cognitive control influences multitasking performance in a simulated flight environment. Besides, we investigate how this dilemma interacts with performance and workload when an additional partner is present. For this purpose, 42 participants were recruited to perform the open-source version of the Multi-Attribute Task Battery (openMATB) in two different experimental conditions. Initially, participants performed the openMATB alone either in a stable or flexible control mode, which was manipulated via a gamification method (assessment 1). Afterward, two participants performed the openMATB together as a team - again in a stable and flexible control mode (assessment 2). Results indicate that the stability-flexibility-dilemma affected the participants' individual task performance. Furthermore, the participants' performance improved in teams. However, this effect depended on subtask characteristics and the operated cognitive control mode. Implications for the design of adaptive assistance systems and suggestions for future research are discussed.

总是在(搭档)行动?在团队中工作可能会提高模拟飞行的表现,但只有在适当的认知控制状态下。
多任务处理能力对于执行飞行任务至关重要。传统的多任务理论认为,认知资源是上述表现的决定性因素。目前的研究采用了不同的方法,研究了在模拟飞行环境中,认知控制的稳定性-灵活性-困境如何影响多任务处理性能。此外,我们还研究了当有额外的合作伙伴在场时,这种困境如何与性能和工作负载相互作用。为此,招募了42名参与者在两种不同的实验条件下执行开源版本的多属性任务电池(openMATB)。最初,参与者在稳定或灵活的控制模式下单独执行openMATB,通过游戏化方法进行操作(评估1)。之后,两名参与者作为一个团队一起执行openMATB -同样在稳定和灵活的控制模式下(评估2)。结果表明,稳定性-灵活性-困境影响了参与者的个体任务绩效。此外,参与者在团队中的表现也有所提高。然而,这种效应取决于子任务特征和操作的认知控制方式。讨论了自适应辅助系统设计的启示和对未来研究的建议。
