  1. Assessing and Enhancing Complex Reasoning Skill in National Security Domains • Overall quest: improve human performance in complex tasks or in working so-called ill-structured problems • Despite impressive undergraduate experience, measures at USAFA do not show progression in complex reasoning skill. Similar situation nationally in colleges and universities. • HSD effort creates a bank of scenarios (“model-eliciting activities” or MEAs) appropriate for civilian first responder and military officer training • Initial domains of geospatial information systems and terrorist network modeling • Tests and refines an experimental tool (Cogito) for measurement of reasoning level • Advances theory related to MEAs and to stage approach to intellectual maturation • Examines the empirical link between sustained effort in complex reasoning and intellectual development United States Air Force Academy
