Abstract
This paper evaluates a process tracing technique developed to assess pilot Situation Awareness (SA) in air combat missions. Using the tool, the assessment of pilot SA and translation of pilot behavior to an observer assessment form is done through observation and analysis by Subject Matter Experts. The tool is found to impose minimal interruption to the task performance, which is desired from an assessment tool that is to be applied in a highly dynamic environment such as air combat. It is also found to be advantageous in providing comprehensive and detailed information of the dynamic changes in pilot SA and the situation assessment process, as well as the quality of SA acquired. Some problems with the tool are identified and modifications to minimize them are proposed.Keywordssituation awarenessaviationair combatmethodprocess tracing
