Abstract
This paper describes Psycognition, a concept and methodological approach for eliciting the subconscious processes which influence human behavior. An examination of the Psycognition methodology is drawn from research that explored the subconscious processes underlying the tactical behaviors and decision making of a sample of RAF fighter pilots. This example application illustrates how the approach can be applied to apparently random behavior in critical situations. A primary aim of the research was to explore whether the Psycognition approach could contribute to our understanding of the requirements for future cognitive adaptive aircrew systems.
