Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering: Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on MMESE
Author: Shengzhao Long
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 981165963X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 899
Book Description
Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering: Proceedings of the 21st Conference on MMESE is the academic showcase of best research papers selected from more than 500 submissions each year. From this book reader will learn the best research topics and the latest development trend in MMESE design theory and other human-centered system application.MMESE focus mainly on the relationship between Man, Machine and Environment. It studies the optimum combination of man-machine-environment systems. In the system, the Man means the working people as the subject in the workplace (e.g. operator, decision-maker); the Machine means the general name of any object controlled by the Man (including tool, Machinery, Computer, system and technology), the Environment means the specially working conditions under which Man and Machine occupy together(e.g. temperature, noise, vibration, hazardous gases etc.). The three goals of the optimization of the system are safety, efficiency and economy.In 1981 with direct support from one of the greatest modern Chinese scientists, Qian Xuesen, Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering (MMESE), the integrated and advanced science research topic was established in China by Professor Shengzhao Long. In the letter to Shengzhao Long, in October 22nd, 1993, Qian Xuesen wrote: “You have created a very important modern science subject and technology in China!”.

Operational Use of the Air Traffic Selection and Training Battery

ISBN:
Category : Ability
Languages : en
Pages : 16
Book Description
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is commencing a massive hiring of air traffic control specialists using a new selection procedure, the Air Traffic Selection and Training (AT-SAT) computerized test battery. Before AT-SAT could be used for hiring purposes, however, the issue of its potential for adverse impact (potential unfair discrimination) had to be addressed. The present study endeavors to: 1) describe how AT-SAT functions as an operational selection method with respect to the several applicant pools, and 2) determine how the reweighting effort fares with actual applicants in the goal of reducing/eliminating group differences that could result in adverse impact. Of the 854 applicants who have taken AT-SAT as part of a job application process (rather than as according to a research protocol), 219 applicants (25.64%) voluntarily disclosed their race; gender was known for 253 (29.63%). The results suggest that the reweighting effort is paying dividends as group differences that could result in adverse impact are not in evidence.

The Validity of the Air Traffic Selection and Training (AT-SAT) Test Battery in Operational Use
Author: Dana Broach

ISBN:
Category : Air traffic control
Languages : en
Pages : 9
Book Description
"Applicants for the air traffic control specialist (ATCS) occupation from the general public and graduates from post-secondary institutions participating in the FAA's Air Traffic Collegiate Training Initiative (AT-CTI) must take and pass the Air Traffic Selection and Training (AT-SAT) test battery as part of the selection process. Two concurrent, criterion-related validation studies demonstrated that AT-SAT was a valid predictor of ATCS job performance (American Institutes for Research, 2012; Ramos, Heil, & Manning, 2001a,b). However, the validity of AT-SAT in operational use has been questioned since implementation in 2002 (Barr, Brady, Koleszar, New, & Pounds, 2011; Department of Transportation Office of the Inspector General, 2010). The current study investigated the validity of AT-SAT in operational use. Method. AT-SAT and field training data for 1,950 air traffic controllers."--Report documentation page.

The Relationship of Predevelopmental "150" Training with Noncompetitively Selected Air Traffic Control Trainees to FAA Academy Success

Languages : en
Pages : 32
Book Description
Past studies have demonstrated that women and minorities are less likely to be selected as FAA air traffic controllers than are nonminority men, and, when selected, are less likely to be successful. One major reason for this is that women and minorities have less aviation-related background experience. In response to this need the '150' Predevelopmental program was begun to give those selected for the program a 1-year orientation to aviation and air traffic control prior to FAA Academy training. The purpose of this research was to study the unique relationship between Predevelopmental training and Academy success. An overview of the relationships between various background characteristics, selection measures, Predevelopmental training measures, and Academy measures was first computed. Then, through path analysis the significant relationships were considered simultaneously to determine the unique relationship between Predevelopmental training and Academy success. The path models indicated that Predevelopmental training overall does enhance a trainee's potential for Academy success with a possible differential effect according to minority status. (Author).
