Mis judge individuals even if we have contact with them.
Question 149-8 : 'feedback' in communication implies that ?
A message is measured and corrected against the original meaning.
.take the trouble to obtain feedback to ensure that what you are trying to communicate has been fully understood. feedback should also be volunteered if here is any possibility of a misunderstanding.
Question 149-9 : 'non verbal communication' ?

Question 149-10 : A pilot meets the ground engineer in charge on the apron. although the pilot has not been through flight preparation yet, he nevertheless instructs the engineer as to the amount of fuel to be loaded, since he is used to flying this route. this behaviour results from ?

Question 149-11 : Which of the following is the best definition of episodic memory ?
It is the memory of events which are held in the long term memory and can be influenced by suggestion.
.episodic memory is the memory that is gained through personal experience of events in our lives that have occurred at a specific time and place. episodic memory is stored much like a video in our minds and allows us to recall specific events such as remembering where we were and what we were doing when the terrorist attacks on the world trade centre took place on september 11, 2001..episodic memory is very malleable and can be influenced by what we thought should have happened, as opposed to what really did. this can cause problems for air accident investigators when they are trying to gather accurate details of what happened before, during or after an accident. a pilot and a passenger who have experienced the same incident may have different views on what happened. although the pilot may be more proficient in the technical details required for flying, their recall of the incident may be biased by what they thought should have happened in such an event. the passenger, on the other hand, may be able to recall a much more accurate picture because of their lack of preconceptions involved with the flight.
Question 149-12 : Which of the following is true with reference to semantic memory ?
It is the meaning of words and general knowledge of the world it lasts for a longer period of time and tends to be more accurate than episodic memory.
Question 149-13 : How will the successful completion of a stressful task affect a pilot's performance when a similar situation is experienced in the future ?
The amount of stress experienced will be less.
Question 149-14 : What are the two inputs to a simple model of stress ?
The perceived demand of the task to the pilot and the pilot's perceived ability to complete the task.

Question 149-18 : Which of the following answers are correct concerning the long term memory.1 long term memory can be affected by expectation and suggestion.2 long term memory is also known as the working memory.3 long term memory is limited to plus or minus 7 pieces of disassociated pieces of information.4 long ?
1 and 4.
Caestudent36.on page 153 of the oxford aviation books is mentioned 'it would occur that the easa concur with the latter viewpoint, thus these notes have included procedural memory as part of the long term memory' and procedural memory=motor programmes.

The unresolved pressure, strain or force acting upon an individual's physical or mental systems and the human response.
Question 149-20 : What is meant by 'passive monitoring' in terms of automation complacency ?
A pilot watching what is going on rather than analysing and constantly checking.
Question 149-21 : Which of the following is an example of human underload ?
An unexpectedly poor landing at an airfield with which the pilot is familiar in perfect weather conditions.

Question 149-25 : In the alarm stage of response to stress what does the body do ?
Recognises the stressor and prepares the body for action.
.alarm stage is first stage of stress response where organism meet face to face with stressor cause of stress and mobilizing energy. organism need to protect us from stressor stimulus that provokes a stress response and initiate alarm reaction, 'fight or flight' reaction. adrenaline will be releases and some activation make cortisol. this reaction can provoke both, good and bad events and only in that phase we can talk about eustress happy stress, like winning the game...in alarm stage, stress response helps us to protect our self, giving us extra strength to defend our self. we are rising to the challenges, stay focused, energetic burst of energy , and alert, work hard and react quickly.
Question 149-26 : What is 'automation complacency' ?
The circumstance where monitoring and cross checking is reduced because of the belief in the infallibility of the automatic systems.
Question 149-27 : Why are mnemonics are used in aviation ?
Because they help to increase retention of information.
Question 149-28 : Incorrect perception ?
Can be highly persuasive.
Question 149-29 : Which of the following statements is correct ?

Question 149-33 : With reference to the relationship between arousal and performance, the highest level of performance is achieved when the arousal level is ?
Optimum.
Arousal is a major aspect of many learning theories and is closely related to other concepts such as anxiety, attention, agitation, stress, and motivation...the arousal level can be thought of as how much capacity you have available to work with. one finding with respect to arousal is the yerkes dodson law named after the researchers who discovered it which predicts an inverted u shaped function between arousal and performance
Question 149-34 : What are the two main categories of fatigue ?
Acute and chronic.
Question 149-35 : What is the relationship between the perceived level of arousal and the difficulty of a task to be completed ?
At the outset, the level of arousal should be within the optimum range and therefore at a level where performance does not suffer.
Question 149-36 : High arousal leads to ?
Faster but less accurate responses.
.when humans are pressured to respond quickly, the chance of making an error increases this phenomenon is know as the speed accuracy trade off. conditions that increase the level of arousal will lead to faster but less accurate responses..high arousal leads to faster but less accurate responses and a higher stimulation leads to a faster and more precise decision.
Question 149-37 : During the decision making process in the cockpit ?
The amount of time available has a large influence on the analysis of the situation.
Question 149-38 : A higher stimulation leads to ?
A faster and more precise decision.
.high arousal leads to faster but less accurate responses and a higher stimulation leads to a faster and more precise decision.
