Description of the Book:

In RPV Study VII, the main interest was in the composition of three teams of five operators each: do independent teams whose individual members belong to one team perform differently from teams whose members are chosen from a limited pool of operators such that each operator performs on two teams. In RPV Study VIII, another aspect of team compostition was investigated: how is the performance of an individual operator reflected in the performance of a team and across teams of varying sizes. In both studies, the operators were highly experienced in the control of the simulated RPV system. Both studies employed scenarios requiring that support RPVs provide coverage for a set of weapon delivery/strike RPVs. The RPV system was assumed to operate in an environment where a radio frequency has to be shared by multiple users, so that a time slot for command and telemetry transmissions becomes available for RPV system use only on a periodic basis.

The results of RPV Study VII indicated that average performance remained unchanged from independently constituted teams to pooled constituted teams. However, the variability in terms of standard deviations of dependent measures was reduced. The results of RPV Study VIII indicated that operator-centered tasks are largely unaffected by team size on the same tasks. Workload, in terms of the number of RPVs to be controlled, had an effect on performance by itself but had no differential effect over team sizes or operators
