An Inclusive Classified Bibliography Pertaining to Modeling the Human Operator as an Element in an Automatic Control System

This paper comprises a bibliography of some two hundred entries, selected from a total collection of almost five hundred references pertaining to the human operator, which are concerned specifically with modeling the human operator as an element in an automatic control system. To enable systematic utilization of the material, the important papers are classed in Section A, the Bibliography Subject Index, under major subheads, and then arranged chronologically within each subject category. Included within these categories are many of the original papers dealing with human operator models, including British and U. S. classified reports produced after World War II, which have since been declassified. Up-to-date private-industry reports, which are generally difficult to learn of or locate, are included, as is a wealth of material stemming from federal agencies, principally NASA. Section B comprises the actual bibliography.
