2、methods for measuring human performance for the purpose of scientific research and system evaluation. The guidelines are intended to assist scientists and systems specialists in selecting human performance measurement methods appropriate to the situation being studied or the system being evaluated.

3、ANSVAIAA G-035A-2000 Approval of an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria have been met by the Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been

4、reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The use of American Nationa

23、rformance measurement was initiated under the auspices of the Life Sciences and Systems Committee on Standards (LS (2) to promote commonality across research projects and, thus, enable comparison of results across evaluations; and (3) to develop and use common HPM tools for data collection and data

24、processing. Note that this Guide does not include physiological measures. Such measures will be handled in a separate AIAA standard. Until then, the reader is referred to Martin and Venables (1980). 1.2 Purpose The purpose of this Guide is to aid the reader in measuring human performance. The reader

25、 is assumed to have a basic knowledge of experimental design, statistics, and human performance. 2 Vocabulary anemometer An instrument used to measure local air flow. anthropometer An instrument consisting of a ruler with two perpendicular movable legs, used to measure distances such as upper-arm le

DT a series of lookpoints that stay within a visual radius of 1 degree (Harris, Glover, and Spady, 1986, p. 38). fix

29、ations per dwell A measure of instrument-scanning behavior: “the number of individual fixations during an instrument dwell” (Harris, Glover, and Spady, 1986, p. 38). function A major category of activity associated with a system or subsystem and assigned to a person or a machine or shared between a

30、person and a machine (Berson and Crooks, 1976). gas tester An instrument that measures, detects, and quantifies presence of specific gases goniometer An instrument for measuring angles, including human joint angles such as wrist flexion.

31、at measures relative humidity. LED Light-emitting diode. lookpoint A measure of instrument-scanning behavior, e.g., “the current coordinates of where the pilot is looking during any one thirtieth of a second” (Harris, Glover, and Spady, 1986, p. 38). oculometer An instrument that measures lookpoint.

32、 OJT On-the-job training. one-way transition A measure of instrument-scanning behavior: “the sum of all transitions from one instrument to another (one direction only) in a specific pair” (Harris, Glover, and Spady, 1986, p. 38). OST Operational system testing OT (2) training, in which measurements

33、are made to determine the effects of instruction on personnel performance or to determine the instructional variables affecting performance; and (3) test and evaluation, in which measurements are made to evaluate the capability of the human to operate and maintain the system in its intended environm

34、ent. The measurements described in this Guide can be applied to any technology that is controlled and operated by personnel (system personnel) or that affects humans as clients, even if these are not system personnel, or both. For example, the operators of a computerized production line stamping out

35、 automobile bodies are system personnel; the owner of one of these automobiles is a client of that system. The focus of the measurements is on the humans performance, although it may appropriate to also measure the equipment or system with which he or she interacts. These measurement guidelines can

36、be applied to a wide range of devices, from the individual work station (such as a word processor) to a large system (such as an airliner). They can be applied to the single operator and to teams of varying size. More specific applications are to types of measurement: (1) basic and applied research;

37、 (2) system design and development; and (3) system test and evaluation. Discussions of these applications are provided below. All measurements should include consideration of the system context in which they are made. System context is defined as the next higher level system in which the equipment o

38、r system being tested is embedded. For example, if measurements are made for a word processor, the office in which the word processor is located should be examined before testing to determine if factors present in the larger office could influence operator performance with the word processor. 3 ANSV

39、AIAA G-035A-2000 Because this Guide can be used in any situation in which humans control or are influenced by equipment and systems, it is independent of any particular application. It is, therefore, incumbent on those who use this Guide to ensure that their usage in any specific context is both sci

40、entifically and legally appropriate. Measurements involving human subjects are controlled by ethical standards described in such documents as the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 46, which forbids exposing human subjects to harmful or potentially harmful tests. These documents also require that all

41、 research involving human subjects must meet current ethical standards and be approved by authorized review boards for the protection of human subjects. Before proceeding to a detailed description of various measurement aspects, it will be useful to summarize the major steps in measurement (Figure 1

42、). Note in Figure 1 that there are feed-forward and feed-back loops and, in particular, that it may be necessary to revise measurement objectives and procedures when required resources are not available. 1.0 Define the system to be measured in terms of 1.1 Specific equipment 1.2 Specific tasks 1.3 Q

As a means of acquiring knowledge, basic research is often theory-directed, performed for either the development of a theor
