The present study examines the validity and context-specificity of this measurement framework for simulation-based team training.BackgroundTeams adapt by reorganizing their coordination behavior to overcome challenges in dynamic environments. Theoretically grounded objective metrics for measuring adaptive skill in teams are needed. We developed dynamic measures of team adaptation to help fill this gap.MethodCommunication data from critical care air transport team training were analyzed using moving window entropy and recurrence-based determinism metrics of communicative adaptation in response to training event perturbations involving stabilizing deteriorating patient status. The measures were validated across four simulation-based training scenarios using objective and subjective metrics of team performance.ResultsWe validated performance prediction in all scenarios, demonstrating generalizability. Critically, teams reorganized significantly more during perturbation segments than routine segments, validating the measures as indices of team adaptation. We also observed context-specificity, wherein the relationships between reorganization and successful performance depended on the training scenario.ConclusionThe communicative reorganization measures advanced in this paper present a valid method for assessing adaptive competencies in teams. These analytics generalize in terms of performance prediction across training scenarios, but they are also context-specific, wherein patterns of effective reorganization depend on the type of scenario.ApplicationWe discuss the practical deployment of the measurement framework in a Team Dynamics Measurement System for assessing team adaptation competencies in critical care air transport team training.</p>","PeriodicalId":56333,"journal":{"name":"Human Factors","volume":" ","pages":"836-855"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143017035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It may instead be more beneficial to provide additional information without decision recommendations to inform operators' unaided decision making.MethodsParticipants selected the optimal uninhabited vehicle (UV) to complete missions.

The Effect of Degree of Automation on Attention Allocation and Human Performance Under Different Reliabilities.","authors":"Shuo Wang, Yu Liu, Xuan Wang, Zechen Liu, Xuqun You, Yuan Li","doi":"10.1177/00187208241311808","DOIUrl":"10.1177/00187208241311808","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>ObjectiveThis study investigated the effect of reliability on the function allocation (FA) boundary by examining the interaction effect of degree of automation (DOA) and reliability on routine performance, failure performance, and attention allocation.BackgroundAccording to the lumberjack effect, an increase in DOA will typically improve routine performance, while failure performance may remain undeteriorated until a specific, high DOA threshold is reached. This threshold can be regarded as the FA boundary. Considering that both DOA and reliability can influence failure performance through attention allocation, it is crucial to investigate how reliability affects the FA boundary.MethodParticipants performed three MATB tasks, one of which, the system monitoring task, was supported by four types of automation: information acquisition (IAc), information analysis (IAn), action selection (AS), and action implementation (AI). From IAc to AI, the DOA incrementally increased. Additionally, automation reliability was set to three levels, namely, 87.50%, 68.75%, and 56.25%.ResultsFor routine performance, participants assisted by AS reacted more rapidly to gauge malfunctions than those supported by IAc or IAn. For failure performance, participants aided by AI corrected gauge malfunctions less frequently than other participants. Correspondingly, participants supported by AI exhibited fewer fixation counts on the system monitoring task than did others.ConclusionIt appears that the FA boundary lies between AS and AI.

In these scenarios, auditory cues may provide a viable solution, especially when visual cues are diminished by fatigue or distractions.MethodsIn two distinct studies, a total of 180 participants were involved in investigating the impact of auditory cues on VIMS. In Study 1, participants were categorized based on the type of auditory cue they received (speech, nonspeech, or no-cue). Study 2 examined the effects of three different lead times (1 s, 2 s, and 3 s) between the activation of the auditory cue and the occurrence of car braking or turning in nonspeech conditions. VIMS severity was assessed with the Simulator Sickness Questionnaire (SSQ) before and after the simulation phase.ResultsNonspeech cues significantly reduced VIMS compared to speech or no-cue. VIMS was notably lower with a 2 s lead time than with 1 s or 3 s lead times, and females reported higher levels of VIMS than males.ConclusionResults across two studies suggest using nonspeech cues with a 2-second lead time to reduce VIMS.

Yet, there is no comprehensive study examining whether the right-hand visuomotor advantage found in right handers remains stable, increases or attenuates when another task is performed concurrently with the other hand.MethodsTwenty-eight right-handed participants (mean age = 22) performed 2D visuomotor tracking under either unimanual (one target, one hand) or bimanual conditions (two targets, one for each hand). Various gaze contingencies and visual displays were tested. Tracking performance of each hand was evaluated through the mean cursor-target distance.ResultsA clear right-hand advantage was found under all unimanual conditions. Under bimanual conditions, tracking accuracy decreased for both hands albeit more extensively for the left hand than the right when gaze was free, thus amplifying the above right-hand advantage. Prioritization of the right hand was associated with a gaze preference toward this hand. However, this increase in manual asymmetry was greatly alleviated when participants were instructed to fixate straight ahead, a benefit obtained at no cost in terms of overall tracking performance.ConclusionsDuring bimanual/dual tracking, there is a natural tendency for right handers to prioritize their right hand.
