Development of equal-interval task rating scales and task conflict matrices as predictors of attentional demand

Article Abstract:

A multidimensional rating scale and task conflict matrices model, developed as a tool for workload prediction, is useful only in a specific operational environment. Two studies using the technique give results that are vastly different from those obtained from previous task rating scales, probably due to the rigorous methods used. The approach utilized in the method is efficient in restricting the ratings of the different attentional domains to the specific visual, auditory, cognitive, and psychomotor demand.

Structured task analysis in complex domains

Article Abstract:

The Method for Usability Engineering (MUSE) is applied to the design of systems supporting the work of air traffic controllers (ATC) at European airport control towers. The potential and limitations of applying the method are discussed with respect to the complexity of the domain and the nonstandard features of the ATC as a MUSE application. MUSE was applied with multiple operators and multiple design goals which include design, harmonization and assessment.
