Stimulus and response fidelity in team training

Transfer performance of 2-man teams was observed in a simulated radar-controlled aerial intercept task following either high or low stimulus (S-) fidelity and either high or low response (R-) fidelity training treatments. Both high S- and high R-fidelity training treatments resulted in superior tran...

Description
Summary:Transfer performance of 2-man teams was observed in a simulated radar-controlled aerial intercept task following either high or low stimulus (S-) fidelity and either high or low response (R-) fidelity training treatments. Both high S- and high R-fidelity training treatments resulted in superior transfer task performance; however, the effects of high R-fidelity training were relatively brief. It was concluded that whereas both are desirable, it is less important to provide high R-fidelity training at least for tasks where the major output requires verbal communication skills.
