This paper describes an investigation of a workload measurement technique based on pilot control movements. The Dynamic Interface Modeling and Simulation System Product Metric (DIMSS PM) assumes that pilot control activity can be used to evaluate pilot workload. Three qualified test pilots flew the fly-bywire NRC Bell 205 helicopter in a short test program that compared the DIMSS PM with subjective workload ratings and handling qualities ratings. The pilots performed a variation of an ADS-33E bob-up with varying levels of simulated turbulence and modified cyclic control characteristics. Good agreement was found for most in-flight test conditions between DIMSS Workload Metric scores and subjective workload ratings from the Bedford Workload Scale and Cooper-Harper handling qualities ratings. While, the DIMSS Workload Metric did not accurately reflect workload increases due to variations in the cyclic stick characteristics, the metric shows promise as an objective measurement tool of pilot workload in well-defined tests.

SUMMARYThe results of lesion, stimulation, deafferentation, implantatión and transplantation studies employed in the identification of hypophysiotrophic control areas in the hypothalamus to date suggest the following probable locations: corticotropic releasing factor (CRF) is formed in a diffuse area along the base of the median eminence, if not the base of the entire hypothalamus. Follicle stimulating hormone releasing factor (FSHRF) is elaborated in the paraventricular-suprachiasmatic areas but its cyclic control may reside in the anterior hypothalamic area. Luteinizing hormone (LH) is controlled by luteinizing hormone releasing factor (LHRF) formed in the suprachiasmatic area: its cyclic control may be in the preoptic area. Prolactin is controlled by prolactin inhibiting factor (PIF) localized in a diffuse area comprising the ventromedial, dorsomedial, arcuate and paraventricular nuclei. The hypothalamic area involved in thyroid control is also rather large, since thyrotropin stimulating hormone releasing factor (TSHRF) has been found in an area including the supraoptic and chiasmatic nuclei. Growth hormone releasing factor (GHRF) is elaborated in a rather narrow zone, the ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei.
