MEASURING SITUATION AWARENESS OF MARITIME OFFICERS USING FULL MISSION BRIDGE SIMULATOR

摘要

Situation Awareness (SA) by using SAGAT (Situation awareness global assessment technique) was measured to investigate the differences of SA between expert group and novice group. A full mission bridge simulator was used to simulate a situation that a ship is coming into Busan Northern Port in Korea. The situation was very complex and emergent situation, differently from everyday situations. Experts also made a collision with the other ships as well as novices. That is, experts' performance was similar to Novices performance. However, there were several differences between experts and novices in terms of SA; patterns of perception errors, patterns of understanding current situation and patterns of predicting the other ships' courses. The results of this investigation were compared with typical SA training guidelines.
