%X Research in cognitive systems engineering (CSE) and decision support requires an understanding of the psychological processes involved in a given task. The purpose of the present study is to investigate how policy capturing and process tracing may help understand the decision mechanisms involved in a naval air-defense task and characterize how human decision making effectiveness can be improved. We report results from a study in which participants performed a threat evaluation and weapons assignment task within a naval air-defense microworld. Policy capturing and process tracing techniques provide both converging perspectives and complementary insights into complex decision making processes.<p /><p>Language: en</p>
