Guidelines for Taping Simulator Sessions for CRM Assessment Data Collection
Purpose of the Guidelines
The following preliminary set of guidelines is designed for those planning to produce videotapes for collecting CRM assessment data. The guidelines are presented in five groups related to the following LOFT/LOE session elements:
Crew-related Instructor-related Scenario-related Simulator-related Editing-related Equipment-related
In this document, the collection of CRM assessment data refers to having aircrew instructors/assessors view tapes and rate CRM performance using one or more rating schemes. These guidelines assume that when videotapes are used to collect that type of data, the production of those tapes should conform to guidelines that are more restrictive than general guidelines for producing CRM assessment training tapes. When videotapes are used to collect CRM assessment data, the video taping process should follow most of the crew-related, instructor-related, and editing related guidelines presented below.
Crew-Related Guidelines
During the taping of the LOFT or LOE sessions, crews should not be interrupted by the instructor or by other avoidable disturbances. The natural flow of the scenario is important for realistic simulation and elicitation of natural crew behavior. Do not provide the crewmembers with scripts on how they should act and make sure they are not familiar with the session's scenario. They should be briefed to perform as they would normally under similar conditions
If the goal is to have a video tape which is representative of an air carrier's crews, the crews selected to make the video tape should have average crew performance, typical crew composition, normal crew attitudes to CRM and training and other observable crew characteristics that could affect their behavior.
When videotapes will be used to collect CRM assessment data:
. Use real crews that are qualified for the equipment and position being flown in the simulator.
. Provide the crew with a regular briefing of the scenario and session (similar to that provided prior to a recurrent LOFT) to include a discussion of the confidentiality of the data collected and then specify how the tapes will be used.
. Schedule the taping session and provide for sufficient briefing time to allow the crew to act as though they were in an actual training or assessment session.
. Have crews should utilize the simulator equipment related to communications as is normally used in the simulator environment.
. the camera or cameras should be placed so that they do not interfere with pilot tasks and so that they are not directly visible by either of the crew members.
. If additional microphones are needed for improved sound quality, the microphones should be positioned before the start of the session with any testing taking place prior to the start of the session.
