Human Performance and Workload in Simulated Landing-Approaches with Autopilot-Failures

Resource for Temporal Information Processing in Interval Production

“…This relationship between time estimation and attention has been used to assess mental workload (Eggemeier & Wilson, 1991). For example, time estinlation was adopted as a secondary task to assess mental workload in driving a car (Brown, Simmonds, & Tickner, 1967) and using aircraft simulators (Johannsen, Pfendler, & Stein, 1976). In the recent studies, the characteristics of attentional resource and the role of working memory required to store and process temporal information have been investigated.…”

Studies of planning behavior of aircraft pilots in normal, abnormal, and emergency situations

“…After each flight of approximately 20 or 32 min, the pilots estimated their experienced workload sep arately for each of the flight phases. They used appropriate subjective rating scales [12], [13] similar to those for criti cality, which had to be cross-marked. The subjective workload scales are shown in Fig.…”

Überwachung, Entscheidung und Supervisory Control in Mensch-Maschine-Systemen

“…"In einer ähnlichen Untersuchung (Johannsen et al 1976) ist am Beispiel von Autopilotausfällen in simulierten Landeanflügen bestätigt worden, dass die Entdeckungszeiten sehr groß werden können. Die Phasenebenendarstellung … veranschaulicht die Abhängigkeit der Entdeckungszeiten von der Gleitpfadabweichung und ihrer ersten Ableitung.…”
