Abstract

Abstract : A multitask experiment simulating certain motor control and communication requirements characteristics of flight was conducted to determine relative strengths of several performance measures as predictors of primary flight training success. A Psychomotor Task (PMT) and a Dichotic Listening Task (DLT) performed under single-task conditions were found to be significantly related (p less .05) to a primary flight training pass/fail criterion. Two separate multitask DLT measures also correlated with the pass/fail criterion and at higher levels of statistical significance (p less than .01) than the single- task measures. The results indicate that various single- and multitask measures are significantly related to primary flight performance, and further reveal that the component test measures may be better predictors under multitask than under single-task conditions. Additional research using larger samples and additional multitask tests is indicated.
