Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Human Factors Engineering
  • Cognitive Psychology

Background:

  • Assessing cognitive workload in air traffic controllers is crucial for safety and efficiency.
  • Existing methods for workload assessment have limitations in accuracy and real-time application.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce novel electroencephalogram (EEG) gamma wave-associated indicators for detecting air traffic controller cognitive workload.
  • To compare the accuracy of these new indicators against traditional workload assessment methods.
  • To explore the practical applicability of the most accurate indicators.

Main Methods:

  • Collected EEG and NASA-Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) data from air traffic controllers under various scenarios.
  • Employed statistical tests (Shapiro-Wilk, ANOVA) to analyze workload data differences.
  • Utilized Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification to evaluate indicator detection accuracy.
  • Applied the Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR) algorithm for sensitive channel selection.

Main Results:

  • Verified a strong correlation between gamma waves and air traffic controller workload.
  • EEG gamma wave indicators demonstrated higher detection accuracy compared to traditional indicators.
  • A single sensitive channel, using the combined indicator (β + θ + α + γ), achieved over 95% recognition rate, meeting practical application requirements.

Conclusions:

  • EEG gamma wave-associated indicators provide a valuable and accurate method for analyzing air traffic controller workload.
  • The developed indicators offer a convenient and precise approach for real-world workload monitoring.
  • This research advances the understanding and assessment of cognitive workload in high-stakes operational environments.
