Attentional Models of Multitask Pilot Performance Using Advanced Display Technology

Wickens, C.D., Goh, J., Helleberg, J., Horrey, W.J. and Talleur, D.A. (2003) 'Attentional Models of Multitask Pilot Performance Using Advanced Display Technology', *Human Factors*, 45(3), pp. 360–380. doi: 10.1518/hfes.45.3.360.27250. Compiled into [[expected-value-model-of-visual-scanning]].

Two-part high-fidelity flight-simulation study (12 instrument-rated pilots, head-mounted eye/head tracker at 60 Hz). Part 1 compares auditory vs. visual vs. redundant delivery of traffic (CDTI) and communications (data link) information; results favour a multiple-resource over a preemption account, with a modest visual cost mediated by head-down scanning and no redundancy gain. Part 2 fits an optimal expected-value model of visual scanning (the expectancy×value core of the SEEV model) to percentage-dwell-time data across areas of interest, validated on two independent data sets.

**Pagination note.** PDF p. 1 is the SAGE cover/landing page; the article proper begins on PDF p. 2 (orig. p. 360). Locators carry the offset **PDF p. N = orig. p. N+358** (PDF p. 2 = orig. p. 360).

**Routing note.** Owned by eye-tracking-research-kb: the source's empirical core is eye-tracking-measured visual scanning (percentage dwell time across AOIs) and a computational model of attention allocation/gaze. Cross-relevant to remote-operations-kb (supervisory attention, ATC) and human-centered-design-kb (display-modality design); those KBs should link rather than duplicate.
