Dataset of evidence based instruction forms for human error reduction in complex systems

The article describes the export data of a flight research simulator experiment. The data show how different forms of presentation affect the behavior of instructions for test subjects. The representation forms algorithm, image and text are examined with regard to the number of top events, error frequencies, execution times and subjectively perceived workload. For this purpose, a study was carried out with n = 93 test persons in the research flight simulator, in which the test persons had the task of landing a passenger aircraft using the autopilot with different representation forms. 14 Possible work errors with 11 different representation forms. Further, there are questionnaire answers from test persons.
