Situation awareness measurement: a review of applicability for C4i environments.

The construct of situation awareness (SA) has become a core theme within the human factors (HF) research community. Consequently, there have been numerous attempts to develop reliable and valid measures of SA but there is a lack of techniques developed specifically for the assessment of SA in command, control, communication, computers and intelligence (C4i) environments. During the design, deve...

Theoretical Underpinnings of Situation Awareness: a Critical Review

A Review of Situation Awareness Assessment Approaches in Aviation Environments

Situation awareness (SA) is an important constituent in human information processing and essential in pilots’ decision-making processes. Acquiring and maintaining appropriate levels of SA is critical in aviation environments as it affects all decisions and actions taking place in flights and air traffic control. This paper provides an overview of recent measurement models and approaches to esta...
