Abstract

The current research examined use of frontal asymmetry measures of electroencephalography (EEG) activity to assess operator motivational intensity during training of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) operators. Participants performed a series of Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions of graduated difficulty. Results demonstrate that frontal asymmetry in conjunction with behavioral measures provides a valuable tool for determining learner workload and motivational intensity. Implications for the use of frontal asymmetry metrics to drive real-time adaptive training are discussed.
