The Survey

The survey package consisted of three main parts ( See appendix 1):

• an experience questionnaire
• a set of probes concerning attitudes toward automation
• a set of similarity judgments concerning the names of autoflight modes that appear on the flight mode annunicator

Participants were instructed to sign and return the consent form that was stapled to the data collection portions of the survey. They could keep the cover letter and the consent form that was printed on the back of the cover letter for future reference.
