Abstract

The assessment of problem solving by military tactical teams presents a compelling and nationally significant challenge to students of human behavior. Individual and team problem solving have much in common, but some processes of problem-solving are more accessible to assessment within teams because team members must explicitly share and communicate mental representations of the problem-solving environment with one another. Networked simulation promises unique opportunities to observe and assess these processes, which have been found to account for a substantial portion of tactical team success. A framework is suggested for use of networked simulation to accomplish these ends. In order to fulfill its promise for assessing tactical teams, data collection in networked simulation needs to be supplemented by display capabilities, communications records, direct observation, and biographical data.
