Selcon, S. J., Taylor, R. M. and Shadrake, R. A. (1992): Multi-Modal Cockpit Warnings: Pictures, Words, or Both?. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 36th Annual Meeting 1992. pp. 57-61.

“This paper examines the requirement for, and benefits of, multi-modal information presentation in cockpit warning systems. It also attempts to provide an account of the nature and levels of processing involved when information from one source is integrated with a supposedly redundant additional source to provide a performance gain in choice reaction time (RT) tasks, and its applicability to other cockpit systems. An experiment is described which used warning/caution 'icons' (pictorial representations of danger situations) and verbal warning messages, both singly and in combination. The visual icons were generated by RAF aircrew, using an iterative design process, as being meaningful pictorial representations of real-world warnings. Subjects were required to identify whether the situations presented warnings i.e. high priority/immediate action or cautions i.e. low priority/immediate awareness. The results obtained showed a significant decrease in response latencies when correlated bi-modal information was given as compared to the uni-modal conditions. The high level of abstraction of these icons strongly implied that the performance gains occurring must be as the result of the integration of 'information' rather than 'data'. Subjective Situational Awareness Rating Technique (SART) scores also showed that benefits may also be accrued through reduced workload and increased depth of understanding. The results of these experiments are considered in terms of current Information Processing and Neural Network theories and an attempt to provide a cognitive model of this integrality effect is also described.”

McClumpha, A. J. and Selcon, S. J. (1989): Objective and Subjective Assessment of Image Recognition. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. pp. 1505-1509.

“This paper describes two studies which used objective and subjective assessments to quantify the effect of target degradation on observers' recognition ability. 'Noise' inherent in a digital infra-red line scan system can result in a static line-to-line variation (pixel jitter) over the displayed imagery. The amount of target degradation is dependent upon both the amplitude and frequency of the pixel jitter. The results showed that, firstly, if an image is affected by pixel jitter, even with an amplitude of only 1 pixels, a significant interference in target recognition performance occurs. Secondly, the results from the subjective scaling mirrored closely the error data and therefore imply that this rating scale may have widespread utility in target acquisition studies. Finally, the effect of pixel jitter appears to be robust. The effect was found not to be specific to a particular type of imagery and is, therefore, likely to generalize to other types of target and other imaging systems. The implication of these results for user-system specification is discussed.”
