A model for types and levels of automation is outlined that can be applied to four broad classes of functions: 1) information acquisition; 2) information analysis; 3) decision and action selection; and 4) action implementation.
Multiple resources and performance prediction

- 1 January 2002
One particular application of the theory, the 4-dimensional multiple resources model, is described in detail, positing that there will be greater interference between two tasks to the extent that they share stages, sensory modalities, codes and channels of visual information.

The Proximity Compatibility Principle: Its Psychological Foundation and Relevance to Display Design
- C. Wickens, C. Carswell
- PsychologyHum. Factors
- 1 September 1995
The concept of the proximity compatibility principle (PCP) is described and its relevance to display design is demonstrated: Displays relevant to a common task or mental operation should be rendered close together in perceptual space (close display proximity).
