O'HARE EXPERIMENT  

Definition

  • O'Hare's stratified experimental plan tested independent groups representing the various stages in the sequence of selection, training, and increasingly complex operations. Dr. O'Hare recruited fourteen of the competing pilots to demonstrate their situational awareness on the WOMBAT-CS test. From this group, eight participants were classified as "elite" pilots on the basis of their consistently superior performances in gliding competitions at national and international levels; some had distinguished careers as professional pilots with both military and test flying experience. The other six participants were highly experienced but without notable competitive honors. Finally, a group of twelve male nonpilots was closely matched with the pilots in age and occupational achievement to serve as experimental controls based on the New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations. http://www.aero.ca/News1_97.html (en)
