Cognitive Readiness Assessment and Reporting: An Open Source Mobile Framework for Operational Decision Support and Performance Improvement
Heric, Matthew; Carter, Jenn
Performance Improvement, v50 n7 p5-16 Aug 2011
Cognitive readiness (CR) and performance for operational time-critical environments are continuing points of focus for military and academic communities. In response to this need, we designed an open source interactive CR assessment application as a highly adaptive and efficient open source testing administration and analysis tool. It is capable of evaluating the CR of individual personnel and combining these results into intuitive, visually based summaries of readiness. The components, logic, and architecture are presented. (Contains 1 table and 7 figures.)
