Abstract

Many high-stakes professions dealing with life-or-death situations such as doctor, airplane pilot, and military mission commander require large amounts of time, effort, and money during training. This training is usually offered at specialized schools or facilities; however, the methods used often rely on outdated standards of expertise assessment. Because only performance is measured, and not the mental workload and effort involved, it is possible for people to leave undertrained and not yet ready, or overtrained, having wasted valuable time and resources. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a training protocol utilizing objective neuroimaging measures of workload to improve the efficiency of training. In this study, our results point toward the benefits of incorporating neuroimaging-based direct brain measures over a standard training protocol.
