USAARL Technical Report 95 - 36 Time - Limited Visual Resolution in Pilot Trainees ( Reprint ) BY Jeff

USAARL Report No. 94-28 Switching from Forward-Looking to Night Vision Goggles: Transitory Effects on Visual Resolution

Time-limited visual resolution in pilot trainees.

Superior vision is needed for piloting aircraft in military and civilian environments. Although visual evaluations of potential pilots typically are conducted with no limit on viewing time, aviation and related occupations require superior vision under time-limited viewing conditions, and assessment of this capability is needed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate time-limited visual reso...

No . 96 - 35 Measuring Resolution in the Contrast Domain : The Small Letter Contrast Test ( Reprint ) BY Jeff Rabin

Background. Recent evidence suggests that small letter contrast sensitivity (CS) is more sensitive than visual acuity (VA) to defocus, luminance, binocular enhancement, and visual differences among pilot trainees. It would be valuable to make this test available for general use. We developed a hard copy (letter chart) version called the Small Letter Contrast Test (SLCT) and evaluated its sensit...

Assessing clinical reasoning skills using Script Concordance Test (SCT) and extended matching questions (EMQs): A pilot for urology trainees

Introduction: Clinical reasoning skill is the core of medicalcompetence. Commonly used assessment methods for medicalcompetence have limited ability to evaluate critical thinking andreasoning skills. Script Concordance Test (SCT) and ExtendedMatching Questions (EMQs) are the evolving tests which areconsidered to be valid and reliable tools for assessing clinicalreasoning and judgment. We perfor...
