Abstract:
A quantitative scoring mechanism based on signal detection theory was developed in the context of an experimental command-and-control environment. The scoring approach was designed to include well-established evaluation criteria of performance metrics and to enable insights into various cognitive and behavioral processes of the subjects. Cognitive processes on a perceptual, sensory, and motor level were linked to subtasks similar to the warship commander task. Signal detection theory provides a theoretical rationale for the quantitative scoring mechanism. Due to the generalizability of the scoring approach, a flexible application to a wide range of experimental tasks should be possible. Considerations and lessons learned are discussed.
