Measuring Shared and Team Situation Awareness of Emergency Decision Makers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Large scale emergencies are usually responded to by a team of emergency managers or a number of sub teams for safety and efficiency. Team coordination has attracted considerable research interest, especially from the cognitive, human factors, and ergonomic aspects because shared situation awareness (SSA) and team situation awareness (TSA) of team members are critical for optimal decision making. This paper describes the development of an information system (SAVER) based on SSA and TSA oriented systems design. Validation and evaluation of the implemented design show that decision performance is improved by the SAVER system.

Ontology-Based Inference to Enhance Team Situation Awareness in Emergency Management
In this paper, we propose the use of an ontology-based and semantic technologies approach to improving shared situation awareness amongst teams dealing with emergency situations. We have also identified that shared and team situation awareness tends to be viewed only in terms of cooperative task completion and so we have tried to describe their important relationship with team decision making. ...
متن کاملUsing Fuzzy Cognitive Maps to Assess Multi-Operator Situation Awareness
A key aspect of modem battlefield environments is the rapid generation and enormous volume of data available to decision makers, Although this data can potentially afford a decision maker an accurate “snap shot” of the emerging situation, it can also produce noise and data clutter that confuses or distracts. When the resulting operation requires individual members of a distributed team to indep...
متن کاملShared Situation Awareness Architecture (S2A2) for Network Centric Disaster Management (NCDM)
Having shared situation awareness (SSA) in network centric disaster management (NCDM) lead to virtual collaboration, virtual organization and self-synchronization among people; therefore, having SSA reduces operation cost and risk and increases speed of responsibility and operation and total performance of decision-makers. In this paper, we present a new architecture to provide SSA for NCDM usi...
متن کاملComputerized system to enhance situation awareness: Key challenges associated with the design, evaluation, and extension of a prototype
Successful decision making and task execution in emergency management require appropriate levels of situation awareness (SA). This paper proposes an ontology-based model for the design of a computer-based system, Situation Aware Vigilant Emergency Reasoner (SAVER) that supports the individual, shared and team SA of managers in emergency situations. SAVER is evaluated in simulated experiments th...
متن کاملMeasuring non-technical skills in medical emergency care: a review of assessment measures
AIM To review the literature on non-technical skills and assessment methods relevant to emergency care. BACKGROUND Non-technical skills (NTS) include leadership, teamwork, decision making and situation awareness, all of which have an impact on healthcare outcomes. Significant concerns have been raised about the rates of adverse medical events, many of which are attributed to NTS failures. M...
