Kendall, Chadwin T.; Yates, R. Rhett C. – Research in Higher Education Journal, 2023
The air transportation industry was experiencing massive growth across the globe before the COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, future projections from major forecasting indicators, such as the Boeing Global Forecast and Airbus Market Forecast, predicted a greater than 4% average yearly growth rate over the next twenty years. The Federal Aviation…

Wiggins, Mark W.; Yuris, Nadya; Molesworth, Brett R. C. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2022
The aim of this study was to test, amongst less experienced pilots, the relationship between the recency of flight experience and performance during a critical in-flight event. It was hypothesised that, in response to an engine failure, recent flight experience would be associated with a superior level of aircraft control, decreased cognitive…

King, M.; Lenser, S.; Rogers, D.; Carnahan, H. – International Journal of Training Research, 2022
Virtual reality (VR) simulation training for helicopter search and rescues (SAR) hoist operators is very uncommon in comparison to the availability of pilot simulation training. SAR hoist operators control winch systems for hoisting objects or people during helicopter flight. Using a rear crew helicopter VR training simulator we sought to quantify…

Li, Junmin; Pilz, Matthias – Journal of Workplace Learning, 2023
Purpose: This paper aims to investigate the in-company training according to the technologically demanding and safety-critical feature of the aircraft industry. This study addresses to the tension between the structured and the more incidental part of in-company learning in their training and learning environment. Design/methodology/approach:…

ALMamari, Khalid; Traynor, Anne – Journal of Intelligence, 2021
Cognitive abilities are related to job performance. However, there is less agreement about the relative contribution of general versus specific cognitive abilities to job performance. Similarly, it is not clear how cognitive abilities operate in the context of complex occupations. This study assessed the role of cognitive abilities on the…

Zachary Peter Waller – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The collegiate aviation programs of higher education are seeking to adapt their capabilities and expertise toward educating a generation of airmen who will operate Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA). The collection of studies presented in this dissertation address this interest as higher education programs investigate the value of modalities and…

Jonathan Michael Hewitt – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This study has determined that a significant difference exists in the performance of collegiate and non-collegiate trained private pilots during initial commercial pilot training. The findings reinforce prior research which indicated that noncollegiate trained private pilot's (NCTPs) require a large amount of additional ground training during…

Berman, Daniel; Stoddard, Jeremy – Journal of Educational Media, Memory and Society, 2022
In the aftermath of the 11 September 2001 attacks against the United States, people immediately compared the attack with the Japanese assault on Pearl Harbor sixty years prior. In this article, we explore how US and world history textbooks published shortly after Pearl Harbor and 9/11 depicted and contextualized both events. The textbooks…

Muhl-Richardson, Alex; Parker, Maximilian G.; Recio, Sergio A.; Tortosa-Molina, Maria; Daffron, Jennifer L.; Davis, Greg J. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
When searching for a known target, mental representations of target features, or templates, guide attention towards matching objects and facilitate recognition. When only distractor features are known, distractor templates allow irrelevant objects to be recognised and attention to be shifted away. This is particularly true in X-ray baggage search,…

Page, Brian R. – Physics Teacher, 2021
The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, are often depicted as lone geniuses, secretly assembling the first successful powered aircraft far from civilization at Kitty Hawk on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. There is a germ of truth in the popular story, but only a germ. The brothers succeeded while so many other experimenters failed not because…

Paul D. Witman; Jim Prior; Tracy Nickl; Scott Mackelprang – Information Systems Education Journal, 2024
The winter storm of late 2022 caused difficulties for many US-based airlines, but none more so than Southwest Airlines. Like other airlines, Southwest canceled flights in the early stages of the storm. Their attempted recoveries failed due to procedural and technology issues. The airline was unable to cope with the magnitude of canceled flights,…

Walmsley, Stephen; Gilbey, Andrew – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
One of the key findings of prospect theory is that people tend to treat potential gains differently to potential losses. Consistent with earlier findings across a range of areas, pilots were risk averse when faced with an uncertain situation involving monetary gains and risk seeking when faced with a monetary loss. Prospect theory has largely been…

Tracking the Identity of Moving Words: Stimulus Complexity and Familiarity Affects Tracking Accuracy
Hyönä, Jukka; Oksama, Lauri; Rantanen, Esa – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
In two experiments, participants tracked the identity and location of moving words. The task bears resemblance to one performed by air traffic controllers who track multiple moving aircraft, where they are identified with relatively complex alphanumeric call signs. In Experiment 1, stimulus familiarity was manipulated by comparing the tracking of…

Baer, Hans A. – Journal of Studies in International Education, 2023
Universities worldwide have come to embrace the rhetoric of environmental sustainability and a commitment to climate action while simultaneously seeking to internationalize themselves within the context of the global economy. In seeking to internationalize, universities are highly dependent on air travel, for both their academic staff and…

Dech-siri Nopas; Choosak Ueangchokchai – Journal of Education and Learning, 2024
Currently, the aviation business is a popular service that helps people travel conveniently, quickly, and safely. People in the airline business have become more stressed with the need to learn about inflight safety-based competence to effectively serve the broad range of passengers' needs. One reason for this is the nature of their jobs, which…
