Field Application of Four Models Designed to Predict Transfer-of- Training Potential of Training Devices

Abstract : This report describes the field application of four analytical models designed to predict transfer of training from simulators to the operational equipment for which the simulators were designed. The four analytical models were applied to two prototype Army Maintenance Training Simulation System (AMTESS) simulators. Predictions of transfer of training derived from application of the models were compared to transfer-of-training data obtained in an experimental evaluation of the two prototype simulators.
