Situation Awareness: A Critical But Ill-Defined Phenomenon
Nadine B. Sarter,David D. Woods +1 more
TLDR
Situation awareness has recently gained considerable attention as a performance-related psychological concept as mentioned in this paper, especially in the aviation domain where it is considered an essential prerequisite for the safe operation of the complex dynamic system 'aircraft.' There are concerns, however, that inappropriately designed automatic systems introduced to advanced flight decks may reduce situation awareness and thereby put aviation safety at risk.Abstract:
Situation awareness has recently gained considerable attention as a performance-related psychological concept. This is especially true in the aviation domain where it is considered an essential prerequisite for the safe operation of the complex dynamic system 'aircraft.' There are concerns, however, that inappropriately designed automatic systems introduced to advanced flight decks may reduce situation awareness and thereby put aviation safety at risk. Situation awareness has thus become a ubiquitous phrase. It's use is most often based on an intuitive understanding; a commonly accepted definition is still missing. To fill this gap, we analyze the cognitive basis of the concept, embedding it in the context of related psychological concepts. On this basis, methodological approaches to the investigation of situation awareness are discussed.read more

Measurement of Situation Awareness in Dynamic Systems
TL;DR: Two studies are presented that investigate questions of validity and intrusiveness regarding a query-based technique that requires that a simulation of the operational tasks be momentarily interrupted in order to query operators on their situation awareness.

Evolving conceptions of memory storage, selective attention, and their mutual constraints within the human information-processing system.
TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to formulate a revised model of information processing that takes into account recent research on memory storage, selective attention, effortful versus automatic processing, and the mutual constraints that these areas place on one another.

The cognitive unconscious
TL;DR: Findings suggest a tripartite division of the cognitive unconscious into truly unconscious mental processes operating on knowledge structures that may themselves be preconscious or subconscious.
