  2. Basic Research - Define “what you look for” in sensemaking - Ethnographic Studies: - to understand the process of sensemaking in operational context - to serve as a baseline for comparing different cognitive models - Identify typology of sensemaking situations: the context dimensions that impact sensemaking (e.g. time horizons and familiarity of the domain) - cognitive task analysis - Investigate the relationship between individual and group sensemaking - Understanding sensemaking mechanisms (including intuitive vs. analytical sense-making) and how they relate to the sensemaking contexts as defined within our typology - Develop functional models - identifying the relative contributions of all these things (individual differences, personalities, emotions, and generalizable cognitive skills vs. domain specific knowledge and processes)

  3. Basic Research (cont.) - Identify ways to help people handle unfamiliar situations - identify ways to help people know they are in unfamiliar situations - Identify methods to notice and handle cues of low diagnosticity (pattern recognition) - Understand sensemaking at individual, group, organizational, and system levels - Develop and use forcing scenarios as a method for analyzing the issues - Develop a sensemaking (conceptual) framework - fragility - educable - multiple views - Develop metrics for diagnosis and evaluation of sensemaking performance - Understand relationship among awareness, sensemaking and information - Reconcile the differences among overlapping concepts, i.e., situational awareness, assessment, understanding, comprehension, mental maps, and sensemaking

  4. Applied Research - Identify types of information technology that may support sensemaking - real time “what if” modeling techniques - decision support that classifies data in terms of the extent to which it supports the current hypothesis - Identify types of training that may support sensemaking - Identify types of organizational structures and processes that may support sensemaking - Support the identification of data needed to confirm/disconfirm current hypothesis - identify ways to obtain the data - Investigate the application of sensemaking to: - psyops - deception - disinformation - propaganda -countermeasures

  5. Applied Research (cont.) - Conduct research on people who must make decisions rapidly in a stressful environment - hospital emergency room personnel - FEMA - wildland firefighters (hotshots) - SAR - option traders - 911 operator - Identify the cultural changes and infrastructures necessary to allow our acquisition and procurement processes to incorporate the results of the research to improve future sensemaking systems - Investigate systems engineering issues for implementing the socio- technical aspects of sensemaking
