Uncertainty reduction and performance improvement through training: Modeling and analysis

As part of a long-term study of the effects of motion cues on manual tracking performance, an experimental and analytical study was performed to explore the effects of simulator delays on performance during various stages of training. This study had two major goals: (1) to see how human operators utilize delayed motion cues while learning a control task, and (2) to see how human operators would carry over their training, from a situation in which motion cues were either non-existent or delayed relative to visual cues, to a situation in which the occurrance of the motion cues was synchronous with visual cues.
