INFORMED CONSENT FORM
EXPLORING HUMAN FACTORS OF REDUCED CREW OPERATIONS TECHNOLOGY FOR
CRUISE FLIGHT WITHIN AIRLINE FLIGHT DECKS: A MIXED METHODS STUDY
Purpose of this Research: I am asking you to take part in a research project for the purpose of ascertaining airline pilot attitudes on human factors of reduced crew operations technology for cruise flight within airline flight decks. During this study, you will be asked to complete a brief online survey about your opinions concerning the use of various technologies that may help airline pilots in the cruise flight segment as well as questions related to human factors, ergonomics, and crew resource management. The completion of the survey will take approximately twenty minutes.
Risks or discomforts: The risks of participating in this study are no greater than what is experienced in
daily life.
Benefits: While there are no benefits to you as a participant, your assistance in this research will help gauge airline pilot attitude on the use of various technologies that may help reduced crew operations and could possibly provide a basis for the adoption of such use.
Confidentiality of records: Your individual information will be protected in all data resulting from this study. Your responses to this survey will remain anonymous. No personal information will be collected other than basic demographic descriptors. The end of the survey will ask for your email so that you may

I will keep your responses in a password-protected file on a password-protected computer. No one other than the researcher will have access to any of the responses. Information collected as part of this research will not be used or distributed for future research studies.
