Specifying training needs in dynamic judgment tasks using a lens model approach

An important aspect of developing training interventions for complex environments is the characterization of individual performance in order to tailor training to the needs of each individual. Individual judgment performance in a command and control environment was modeled as linear combinations of environmental cue values using a lens model approach. Results showed that overall, all participants had accurate knowledge of the environment, but that good and poor performers were distinguished by the consistency with which they executed judgment strategies based on this knowledge.
