ABSTRACT
The methodology has been the tool used to explore aspects of cognition and of language in the attempt to understand those errors in communication. Developing strategies, techniques, and procedures to prevent, capture, or mitigate errors is the ultimate goal of the kind of research people do. In the process, however, people are always excited to make theoretical and methodological contributions to the respective research fields. The experimental methodology illustrates one such contribution offered by an analog task that could be considered an ultra-low fidelity simulation. An analog task such as this can enable a student with limited resources to study complex operational issues and offer substantive recommendations. The impacts of the increasingly complex air traffic management system and of increasingly high traffic volume must also be contemplated. The range of communication channels continues to increase, and each channel comes with its own set of challenges. Communication used to be very simple.
