Description:
The problems of evaluating pilot performance, pilot training, and the integration of the man-machine system for proper functioning become increasingly difficult as the length of projected space flights increases. Further, actual in-flight experience becomes harder to obtain and the major means for training and evaluation becomes simulation. The first major source of difficulty in any simulation stems from a basic requirement of leaning theory: that for increased proficiency of performance to occur within any biologically capable system, the stimuli which are the bases for the expected behavior must be presented in an amenable form to the learner. Further, the sequence of presentation of the pertinent stimuli must be such that the learner can form the appropriate concepts and interactions required for the ultimate use of the learned material. It can then be seen that two basic factors of learning complex skills are: 1) Fidelity of simulation of pertinent stimuli. 2) Appropriate sequencing of stimuli during learning for proper concept formation.
