Abstract

Twenty subjects performed a task requiring (a) pursuit tracking; and (b) concurrent monitoring of a warning light and two panel meters under variable noise. No significant differences in performance were found (a) for the noise variable or (b) between "high" and "low" noise. While tracking performance declined over time, meter monitoring performance did not, nor was there evidence that eye movements to the peripheral events decreased over time.
