“…Although the original impetus for research into the construct came from within the military aviation domain, the construct has since developed into a critical research theme in almost any domain that involves humans performing tasks in complex, dynamic systems. SA research is widespread and ongoing in a variety of domains, including military operations , aviation (Kaber et al 2002, Keller et al 2004, air traffic control (ATC) (Hauss &Eyferth 2003, Endsley andSmolensky 1998), automotive (Zheng, McConkie and Tai 2004), and C4i environments .…”

“…Although developed specifically for use in the military aviation domain, a number of different versions of SAGAT exist, including a specific air-to-air tactical aircraft version (Endsley, 1990), an advanced bomber aircraft version (Endsley, 1989) and an Air traffic control version (Endlsey & Kiris 1995). SALSA (Hauss & Eyferth 2003) is another freeze probe technique that was developed specifically for use in air traffic control. The SALSA queries are based upon fifteen aspects of aircraft flight, such as flight level, ground speed, heading, vertical tendency, conflict and type of conflict.…”

Situation awareness measurement: A review of applicability for C4i environments

The construct of situation awareness (SA) has become a core theme within the human factors (HF) research community. Consequently, there have been numerous attempts to develop reliable and valid measures of SA. Despite this, it is apparent that there are a lack of techniques that have been developed specifically for the assessment of SA in C4i (command, control, communication, computers and intelligence) environments.During the design, development and evaluation of novel systems, technology and procedures, valid and reliable situation awareness measurement techniques are required for the assessment of individual and team SA. SA is assessed in order to determine the improvements (or in some cases decrements) resulting from proposed design and technological interventions. The following paper presents a review of existing situation awareness measurement techniques conducted in order to assess their suitability for use in the assessment of SA in C4i environments. Seventeen SA measures were evaluated against a set of HF methods criteria. It was concluded that current SA measurement techniques are inadequate for use in the assessment of SA in C4i environments, and a multiple-measure approach utilising different approaches is recommended.

“…Other query-based methods include the Situation Present Assessment Method (SPAM) (Durso & Dattel, 2004) and SALSA (Hauss & Eyferth, 2003) (the expanded name for this acronym is in German), and there are many similar methods that vary the procedure while remaining largely query-based. This analysis focuses on the family of SAGAT and SAGAT-like methods, but the problems discussed in this paper may also apply to these other methods to varying degrees.…”

An analysis of query-based measures for situation awareness was conducted, focusing on the effect of sampling from among the population of possible queries and the assumption that all queries are equally likely to be answered correctly across the population of participants. The analysis, which utilized Monte Carlo simulations, demonstrate that sampling from among the possible queries reduces the power of statistical tests, and the assumption of equal likelihood may result in a misleading portrayal of the results.

“…Situation awareness has attracted the interest of researchers and practitioners in a variety of domains, including military [7], aviation [8,9], air traffic control [10], automotive [11] and C4i (command, control, communication, computers and intelligence) [12] and environment [13]. While early research on SA took place in the military and aviation domains, driven by the recognition that SA played a key role in numerous incidents in different domains, it has developed into a critical research theme in almost any area that involves humans performing tasks in complex and challenging environments.…”
