abstract="A transfer-of-training investigation of part-task training was conducted at the Navy's Visual Technology Research Simulator (VTRS). A task segmentation strategy (backward chaining) and a task simplification strategy (enhancement of the simulated aircraft's response to throttle adjustments) were tested. In addition, the subjects' motor-skill aptitude was assessed. Training under backward chaining produced better transfer to the criterion task than an equal number of training trials on the criterion task itself. An aptitude-by-treatment interaction indicated that the backward chaining method of training was particularly advantageous for low-aptitude subjects. The simplification strategy did not appear to enhance transfer.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
