Diagnostic Expertise in Organizational Environments provides a
state-of-the-art foundation for a new paradigm in expertise
research and practice. Skilled diagnosis is essential for accurate
and efficient performance across a range of organizational
contexts, including aviation, finance, rail, forensic
investigation, firefighting, and medicine. However, it is also a
complex process, subject to the abilities and experience of
individual operators, the culture and practices of organizations,
the relationships between operators, and the availability and
usefulness of technology. As a consequence, diagnostic skills can
be difficult to learn, maintain, and evaluate. This volume is a
comprehensive approach that examines diagnostic expertise at the
level of the individual practitioner, in the social context, and at
the organizational level. The chapter authors comprise both
academics and highly skilled practitioners so that there is a clear
transition from understanding the problem of diagnostic skills to
the implementation of solutions, either through redesign, training,
and/or selection. It will appeal to those academics and
practitioners interested and involved in this field and also prove
useful to students of psychology, cognitive science education
and/or computer interaction.

This book is a guide that addressees social science research issues
within the aviation industry. Studies involving human factors,
personality, training systems evaluation, decision-making, crew
resource management and situation awareness are used to illustrate
not only the process, but also the outcomes that can emerge from
social science research. The book describes the principles involved
in conceptualising a research problem, obtaining management
support, developing an appropriate timeframe, obtaining ethics
approval and collecting and managing data. It also provides useful
guidelines concerning the publication of research in magazines,
academic journals and conference presentations. The topics are
illustrated with aviation examples and the principles are
deliberately broad. This book will be a useful guide for both
novice and experienced researchers, especially pilots, air traffic
controllers, maintenance personnel, aviation management, aviation
researchers, safety personnel and undergraduate and postgraduate
university students.

provide you with the motivation you need to take the action you
want to achieve success after college and to make the most of your
life choices. It is filled with stories, tips, and techniques that

Success is a personal journey. What does it mean to you? Where do
you start? When do you start? How do you know when you have
arrived? Many people do not adequately plan for success or prepare
for the seemingly endless journey it takes to get there. By
definition, a journey is a lengthy travel from one destination to
another, but it typically does not happen overnight or
accidentally. You need a map. In Mapping Your Journey to Success,
we will provide you with six simple steps to develop your own
Personal Success Strategic Plan or PSSP. The core concepts of these
steps will help answer the key questions that will get you on the
road to reach your destination.
