    Summary

    The "additional task" method objectively evaluates pilot workload during prolonged flights. Motor response latency provides a more informative measure of pilot involvement than other parameters.

    Area of Science:

    • Human Factors
    • Aerospace Medicine
    • Psychophysiology

    Background:

    • Assessing pilot workload is crucial for flight safety, especially during extended missions.
    • Traditional workload metrics may not fully capture a pilot's cognitive and motor engagement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and validate the "additional task" method for evaluating pilot workload.
    • To determine the most informative quantitative criterion for assessing pilot involvement in prolonged flights.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized the "additional task" method to simulate and measure workload during prolonged flight scenarios.
    • Measured the durations of latent periods of motor responses as a key performance indicator.
    • Compared the efficacy of motor response latency against other registered workload parameters.

    Main Results:

    • The "additional task" method effectively quantified pilot workload.
    • Motor response latency emerged as a highly informative quantitative criterion.
    • This metric proved more insightful than other registered parameters for evaluating pilot involvement.

    Conclusions:

    • The "additional task" method, particularly through motor response latency, offers a superior objective approach to workload assessment in aviation.
    • This approach enhances the understanding of pilot engagement and cognitive load during demanding flight operations.
