Improving Metacomprehension And Learning Through Graduated Concept Mod
Mental model development, deeper levels of information processing, and elaboration are critical to learning. More so, individuals' metacomprehension accuracy is integral to making improvements to their knowledge base. In other words, without an accurate perception of their knowledge on a topic, …

Gestures and mental models: A triple coding hypothesis
… purely verbal communication, and that this supplemental information can lead to more thorough mental models in the receiver by acting on a physical/motor modality in addition to the two modalities proposed in the dual code hypothesis. To further understand this issue, in this study, we examined …

A pilot study of fatigue and situation awareness during simulated small satellite operations
… the MIT Committee on the use of Humans as Experimental Subjects. Subjects (n=8) were trained on the system, then randomized to a sleep protocol order, which included 3 days of rest and 3 days of sleep deprivation. Subjects controlled two satellites in a space debris avoidance scenario. Dependent …

The Use of Expert Pilot Performance Models to Facilitate Cockpit Visual Scan Training
… I, was a systematic effort to create a mental model of flight dynamics for all subjects, which would therefore provide a context into which ADI information extraction could be incorporated. Five groups of flight-naive subjects were first provided with a standardized flight and scan …

Exploring Shared Mental Models Within Submarine Tactical Multiteam Systems
… transition from individual teams to MTSs, shared mental model research, and facilitators and barriers to shared mental model development. Applying these concepts to a submarine crew provides an example of an MTS for future research. In this study I focus on the tactical portion of a submarine crew …

Stakeholder mental model alignment influence on mid-stage performance of new product engineering teams
… mechanisms are critical in the execution. Mental models are cognitive structures used to describe system form and function and predict outcomes. The concept of shared mental models, the influence of shared mental models, and the methods of elicitation and analysis are all relatively recent …

Investigating sources and modes of communication through which rural raised drivers learn and experience cultural models of driving and their impact on driving safety
… gaps, the present research explores the cultural models of driving in Saskatchewan and how these models are transmitted to young drivers so that they develop either safe or unsafe driving mental models. A survey questionnaire of rural-raised university undergraduates who drive estimated their …
