Sources of Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs) for Assessing Human Performance in Aeronautical Systems

Abstract : Air Force (AF) Major Commands (MAJCOMs) often have difficulty in understanding how much improved war-fighting capability can be expected from investments in Manpower, Personnel, and Training (MPT) or Human Performance Research and Development (RD therefore we compiled a listing from the literature. In Phase II using the MOE hierarchy, CSERIAC will interview AF decision-makers with wartime missions and responsibilities to capture their criteria for judging unit readiness and effectiveness for comparison with the compiled MOE hierarchy. Measures prioritized as most important will then be linked to MPT effectiveness metrics. With these linkages, the value of advanced training and screening technology can be more clearly demonstrated. This paper will provide Phase I results and highlight plans for the remaining project.
