Hof, T. (author), Zuidema, P.M. (author), Pennings, H.J.M. (author)Quitting Basic Military Training (BMT) is a problem in the Dutch Armed Forces. Previous research focused on physical factors. Yet, contemporary research focuses on psychosocial characteristics, study skills, and quality of life factors associated with recruits’ intention to quit BMT. We combined several factors to identify the key factors...article 2022

Houben, M.M.J. (author), Meskers, A.J.H. (author), Bos, J.E. (author), Groen, E.L. (author)BACKGROUND:The vestibular Coriolis illusion is a disorienting sensation that results from a transient head rotation about one axis during sustained body rotation about another axis. Although often used in spatial disorientation training for pilots and laboratory studies on motion sickness, little is known about the minimum required rotation rate...article 2022

Landman, A. (author), Mol, D. (author), van Emmerik, M.L. (author), Groen, E.L. (author)An often-used practice in pilot simulator training is to let pilots respond to a situation that has gone wrong. This may require the trainee to postpone their intervention, so that they can experience the cues and sensations signaling the critical situation, and have an opportunity to practice the appropriate response. However, some aviation...report 2022

Landman, A. (author), Pennings, H. (author), Blankendaal, R. (author), van den Bosch, K. (author), Groen, E. (author)Many professions require procedural skills to perform routine tasks, as well as adaptive skills to deal with unexpected situations. Whereas routine skills are acquired by repetitive practice of the same task, adaptive skills develop with variability of practice. We hypothesize that negative transfer may occur when routine skills are trained with...report 2022

Burghouts, G.J. (author), Huizinga, W. (author)Visual Question Answering (VQA) is a very interesting tech nique to answer natural language questions about an image. Recent methods have focused on incorporating knowledge into an improved VQA model, by augmenting the training set, representing scene graphs, or including reasoning. We also leverage knowledge to make VQA more robust. Yet we take...conference paper 2022

(author)Working memory (WM) is the system responsible for maintaining and manipulating information, in the face of ongoing distraction. In turn, WM span is perceived to be an individual-differences construct reflecting the limited capacity of this system. Recently, however, there has been some evidence to suggest that WM capacity can increase through...article 2022

Linssen, L. (author), Landman, A. (author), van Baardewijk, J.U. (author), Bottenheft, C. (author), Binsch, O. (author)Real-time physiological stress monitoring would be a relevant addition to virtual reality (VR) training for high-risk professions, such as the military. VR is highly suitable for the implementation of such monitoring due to the controlled environment and the already used wearables. However, physiological stress measurements suffer from...article 2022

van der Eerden, F. (author), van den Berg, F. (author), van Heijningen, A. (author)Noise contours around military training areas are calculated by using: a) the measured source strength for the impulsive sources and b) the calculated sound propagation using a representative set of meteorological situations. For high-energy impulsive sounds the source strength is measured at distances beyond 100 meters, where peak levels are...conference paper 2022

Burggraaf, J. (author), Groeneweg, J. (author), Sillem, S. (author), van Gelder, P. (author)When a train passes a red aspect, this is called a Signal Passed at Danger event or SPAD. Sometimes it is easy to identify the SPAD cause but in other cases it is unclear why the incident occurred, especially if the system operated as usual and the train driver was trained and experienced just like his or her colleagues. In previous research,...article 2022

Binsch, O. (author), Bottenheft, C. (author), Landman, A. (author), Roijendijk, L. (author), Vermetten, E.H.G.J.M. (author)The current study explores whether different stressors in a virtual reality (VR) military training scenario cause increases in physiological stress. This would validate the use of VR simulation for stress training, as well as the physiological monitoring of trainees for educational purposes. Military cadets (n = 63) performed a patrol scenario ...article 2021

Hence, numerous bias mitigation interventions have been developed and evaluated. However, to be effective in practical situations beyond laboratory conditions, the...article 2021
