Two rhesus monkeys were trained as operators in a compensatory manual control system similar to systems used in human studies. Training procedures used to shape compensatory tracking behavior included a multiple shock-avoidance technique, the gradual introduction of the system input, and sharpening visual stimulus control of tracking behavior. Time-on-target scores for the monkeys were 95% to 98% while responding to three different frequency bandwidths of the system input. As frequency bandwidth increased, no significant increase in error was noted, the monkeys returned the target element to the center target area at increasing rates, and the number of shocks delivered to each subject remained low. Bode plots and stripouts of input, output, and error signals resembled those typically obtained in human studies. Through extrapolations based on nonhuman primate performance, the conclusion was that the task development and training procedures of the present study provided a means for estimating human performance in manual control systems under environmental stress or in hazardous environments.
两只恒河猴被训练成为一个补偿性手动控制系统中的操作员，该系统类似于人类研究中使用的系统。用于塑造补偿性跟踪行为的训练程序包括多重电击回避技术、系统输入的逐步引入以及加强对跟踪行为的视觉刺激控制。在对系统输入的三种不同频率带宽做出反应时，猴子的目标停留时间得分在95%至98%之间。随着频率带宽的增加，未观察到误差有显著增加，猴子将目标元素以越来越快的速度返回中心目标区域，并且传递给每个受试者的电击次数仍然很低。输入、输出和误差信号的伯德图和记录图类似于人类研究中通常获得的那些。通过基于非人类灵长类动物表现的推断，得出的结论是，本研究的任务开发和训练程序提供了一种手段，用于估计人类在环境压力下或危险环境中的手动控制系统中的表现。
