Area of Science:

  • Aviation Psychology
  • Human Factors Engineering
  • Pilot Selection and Training

Background:

  • Traditional pilot selection prioritized individual flying skills.
  • Growing recognition of crew collaboration's importance in aviation success.
  • Need for objective measures of crew resource management (CRM) skills.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a CRM skills test for Air Force transport pilots.
  • To assess the relationship between CRM test performance and actual flight crew performance.
  • To inform improvements in pilot selection and training protocols.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel CRM skills assessment tool.
  • Validation using behavior-based ratings of aircraft commander CRM performance.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Statistical analysis to determine the significance of the relationship.
  • Main Results:

    • A significant positive correlation was found between the CRM skills test scores and commander performance ratings.
    • The developed CRM test demonstrated predictive validity for crew performance.
    • Evidence supports the test's utility in identifying pilots with strong CRM capabilities.

    Conclusions:

    • The CRM skills test is a valuable tool for Air Force pilot selection.
    • Findings support the integration of CRM assessment into training programs.
    • Enhanced CRM skills contribute to overall flight mission success.
