Principal Research Scientist, Director, Communication Research
Group; Chief Scientist of the Washington Research Center
Responsible for ensuring the quality of proposals and project
deliverables, and for ensuring scientific rigor in the conduct of all
projects. Further responsibilities include directing research and
evaluation projects which focus on the analysis of communication
effectiveness and performance in applied settings; and designing
and conducting field studies, laboratory studies, and theoretical and
applied research on communication, cognition, comprehension, and
retention.
Professional Experience
1994-1995 Project Director, Qualitative study of clinical guideline development
processes, for the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research.
This nine-month study has evaluated users' perceptions of the
validity and implementability of clinical guidelines. Responsibilities
include overseeing the preparations for twelve discussions groups
of physicians and nurses; developing the coding system for analysis;
analyzing the development process of the four different guidelines;
and developing correlations between the process variables and
users' perceptions.
1991-1993 Project Director, Evaluation of education materials for potential
blood donors at risk for AIDS and other infectious diseases, for the
Food and Drug Administration. Responsibilities included leading a
team which designed and tested a novel, computer-based approach
to donor screening. The team also developed and tested a training
program for health historians, including the development of

proficiency tests and other assessment techniques like job and task
analysis.
1992-1994 Principal Investigator, Recommendations to improve the safety of
the blood supply, for the World Health Organization. This project
sent researchers to conduct field site data collections in Zimbabwe,
Honduras, and India to study blood donation procedures in
developing and economically disadvantaged countries. Two of the
results of these efforts were invitations to present at the D(th
International AIDS Conference (1994) in Berlin and to speak at the
European Council of Blood Transfusion (1994) in Barcelona.
1989-Present Project Director for Subcontract, Task Order Contract to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics under contract to Westat. This contract
has included over 14 task orders for the Department of Labor and
the Internal Revenue Service. Task orders range in duration from
less than one month to 20 months with values from $7,000 to over
$100,000. Projects have included redesign of IRS forms, cognitive
testing of forms, recruiting, testing of scripts for interactive voice
response systems, review of literature, and setting of research
agenda. Responsibilities include conceptualizing the response to a
task order or modifying the client's initial plan as well as
budgeting, assigning staff and resources, overseeing the technical
work, providing senior review for the written report, and
presenting briefings to the client prior to completion of the task.
Administrative duties include managing AIR staff, coordinating
with Westat and BLS staff, and maintaining a working relationship
with the ultimate client.
1993-Present Project Director for Subcontract, Revision of the facilities survey,
for the National Science Foundation, a two-year teaming effort with
the Gallup Organization and Pelavin Research Institute. This
project to revise NSF's Survey of Scientific and Engineering
Research Facilities at Colleges and Universities aims to improve the
quality of the data collected and to reduce user burden through
improved readability and design. Responsibilities include defining
the conceptual frames of the survey's redesign based on an analysis
of interview data about how survey respondents collect information,
and on information from the Advisory Panel and others.
1989-1991 Director, Document Design Project, for the National Institute of
Education, a three-year project concerned with the development of
guidelines and principles for the simplification of documents.
Responsibilities included supervising and conducting several
experiments investigating the cognitive processes involved in

particular kinds of reading tasks, such as the processing of complex
instructions. Additional responsibilities included designing a
computer-based information retrieval system for document design
principles and their empirical justification and consulting with
several technical assistance clients (IRS, FCC) regarding document
simplification, evaluation, and experimental design.
1989-1990 Principal Investigator, Study of the acquisition and retention of
military skills, for the Army Research Institute. This three-year,
$1.2 million research program assessed training effectiveness in
Army schools and the amount and types of skills retained over
time. This program examined the impact of soldiers' ability levels
on skill acquisition and retention, and examined the effects of
mastery training on skill retention. The results of this project were
invitations to give several presentations on skill acquisition and
retention to various government and military audiences. An
additional result was an invitation to consult at the Royal Army
Educational Corps Centre, Army School of Training Support (ASTS)
to aid in the design and conduct of a skills retention study aimed at
testing the generalizability of the AIR retention model to the British
Army.
1985-1987 Director, Field studies, for the U.S. Army Research Institute.
Primary responsibilities included the "Development and Validation
of Army Selection and Classification Measures," a major Arrnya-
sponsored program (Project A) investigating all phases of
development and evaluation of selection tests, school performance,
on-the-job performance, and Army@-wide measures of effectiveness;
designing, conducting, and analyzing several large-scale field
studies; and developing job-related performance measures.
1985-1987 Director, Field studies of job performance measurement, for the
U.S. Marine Corps. Responsibilities included developing the
behavioral categorization system used to select tasks, designing the
data collection and testing administrator consistency plan, training
administrators, and serving as Test Site Manager for part of the data
collection effort.
1984-1988 Principal Investigator, Assess auditorially-presented messages, for
the U.S. Army Human Engineering Laboratory. This project
developed and tested a method for assessing the difficulty of an
auditoriallym-presented message. Primary responsibility was the
development of a scale that accurately estimated message
transmission errors.

1978-1980 Principal Investigator, An information processing approach to
performance assessment, for the Office of Naval Research (ONR).
Responsibilities included leading a program for the study of
individual differences and assessment of cognitive abilities. This
program was based on previous work on the development of
assessment techniques using an information-processing approach to
the analysis of human performance. One project output was a test
battery for the assessment of cognitive functions. Components of
this battery have been used by several groups including the Navy
and the Coast Guard (for the assessment of cognitive and
behavioral effects of shipboard motion).
1974-1978 Researcher, Analysis of job and task requirements, for the Office
of Naval Research (ONR). Responsibilities included participating in
an ONR-supported project directed toward finding new methods of
analyzing job and task requirements in terms of the different
patterns of abilities which may be needed as systematic variations
in task difficulty are introduced. Substantive contributions included
design of criterion tasks and the development and modification of
assessment tests.
1970-1974 Graduate Assistant
Training included experimental design and statistics, skilled
performance, human perception and problem solving, and
performance assessment and evaluation. The assistantship required
participation in several research programs, including an ARPA-
sponsored program investigating stress and performance. These
programs included study of various aspects of stress effects as
revealed by skilled performers in a time-sharing situation, and
contributed to a psychopharmacological study of high-altitude
preadaptation. The experience and training gained as a graduate
assistant contributed to a dissertation involving the development
and evaluation of a test battery for assessing human information
processing skills and abilities. This battery included several
perceptual and psychomotor tasks.
