Commentary on the Article by Hoermann and Goerke: In Search of Collective Oriented Members in the Flight Deck and Beyond-A Need, a Challenge

摘要

There is no question that in today's aerospace world, teamwork matters. It matters for completing complex, difficult, stressful tasks when lives are at stake. And so, scientists and practitioners in this industry have sought out strategies to enhance teamwork in flight decks and beyond-that is how crew resource management (CRM) training was born. Teamwork (i.e., CRM) training has been at the front of recent aerospace research and practice with some success (see ; Kanki, Helmreich, & Anca, 2010; Salas, Burke, Bowers, & Wilson, 2001). But, as correctly noted by Hoermann and Goerke (this issue), CRM training might not be enough to ameliorate human factors issues, and other human performance-enhancing strategies and diagnostic methods are needed-like robust selection procedures.
