Book Description
TO DERIVE METHODS FOR SCORING THE DECISION-MAKING BEHAVIOR FOR USE IN A BROAD PROGRAM OF MANNED SYSTEMS RESEARCH TO IMPROVE TACTICAL DECISION MAKING. A test scenario was developed and administered individually to 20 senior field grade officers. The assigned task required each officer to write a defense plan for his division sector against an expected attack by two mechanized infantry divisions. The scenario was presented by using cathode ray tube (CRT) displays, computer-driven typewriters, and random access slide projection equipment. Defense plans were scored using USA CGSC school solutions as criteria. Two scoring procedures were utilized: (1) Leavensorth Standard (based on rationales and solutions in the CGSC lesson plans) and (2) Consensus Standard (to provide for computing average subject responses in the event CGSC Standards were inappropriate as a result of scenario changes.
