Project TitleTechnical ApproachTechnical Goals and Objectives
Strategic Alignment with NASA KSC Value and Benefit
• Interviews with 12 NASA astronauts with LDSF experience
• Observation of current team training
• Analysis of archival data from analogue populations
• Laboratory studies
• Field experiment for new debriefing approach
• Training for flight directors
• Identify team training needs for LDSF crews
• Develop and test team training strategies
• Develop recommendations measuring teamwork and cohesion
• Recommendations for team training content, methods, and sequencing prior to and during a mission
• Identification of organizational support factors influencing training effectiveness
• Validation of new team debriefing approach
• Metrics for assessing teamwork and cohesion

TEAM DEBRIEFS
Motivating, focused, impactful
Frustrating, inefficient, ineffective

TDT PROCESS
1. Goals are process rather than outcome-oriented
2. Facilitator creates and maintains a psychologically safe learning climate
3. Discussion is structured around effective model of teamwork
4. Feedback is balanced in terms of positives and negatives
5. Team members self-correct

FIELD EXPERIMENTCan TDT improve individuals’ ability to perform in ad hoc
teams?Can TDT reduce training time for certification?
RESEARCH PLAN Trainees in control condition (10 individual flight controllers) – no change to existing practices
for debriefing
Trainees in treatment condition (10 individual flight controllers) - debriefed after integrated simulations using TDT
What is being collected? 45 min survey of trainee personality and knowledge
collected PRIOR to first integrated simulation
5 min survey after 1st,- 4th integrated simulation (medium or high)
Card sorting task after 4th integrated simulation
Audio of debriefs for integrated simulations
Archival data on certification time
PRELIMINARY RESULTS
Significant improvement in perceptions of learning climate
Data on learning is trending in support of our expectations
