"The present technical research note['s] ... purpose is to summarize the leads for potential combat predictors suggested by the results of earlier research and to describe the instruments ultimately selected for use in the large scale study"--Preface.
"The present study describes the use of over 4000 members of a Gyroscope unit -- the 10th Infantry Division -- in designing a suitable research plan, administering 17 experimental instruments, and collecting information on training and on-the-job performance preliminary to identification of new combat aptitude areas for selection to the combat arms"--Preliminary page.
"To develop for use in classifying enlisted men to the combat arms new aptitude areas incorporating measures of what the combat man will do as well as what he can do ... A long term program of research involved the experimental testing of approximately 5000 enlisted combat arms personnel-- about 2000 in actual combat, 1000 in Arctic maneuvers, and 2000 in both a training and a later overseas garrison-maneuvers situation"--Preliminary page.
This book examines the human factors issues associated with the development, testing, and implementation of helmet-mounted display technology in the 21st Century Land Warrior System. Because the framework of analysis is soldier performance with the system in the full range of environments and missions, the book discusses both the military context and the characteristics of the infantry soldiers who will use the system. The major issues covered include the positive and negative effects of such a display on the local and global situation awareness of the individual soldier, an analysis of the visual and psychomotor factors associated with each design feature, design considerations for auditory displays, and physical sources of stress and the implications of the display for affecting the soldier's workload. The book proposes an innovative approach to research and testing based on a three-stage strategy that begins in the laboratory, moves to controlled field studies, and culminates in operational testing.
