The idea that CGF systems can and should include automated learning capabilities has been widely asserted and accepted. However, it seems to be not so obvious that learning by CGF systems would necessarily be beneficial. For each of the three broad classes of CGF applications there are categories of learning-modified behavior for CGF systems that apparently could reduce or negate the utility of the CGF system for the application. Real and notional examples are available. The specific applications where learning by CGF systems might be useful are a subset of CGF applications.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">063</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Frederic (Rick) McKenzie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mikel Petty</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jean Catanzaro</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">An Experimental Application of a Trait-Based Personality Model to the Simulation of Military Decision-Making</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Information &amp; Security: An International Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Computer generated forces</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">personality modeling.</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">75-92</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Personality is a significant influence on human behavior. In the context of military decision-making, different military commanders may behave differently when faced with the similar circumstances, depending on their personalities. Moreover, personality may cause the same commander to react differently to similar situations encountered at different times. The effect of personality on decision-making behavior is intrinsically complex and is further mediated by such factors as stress and situational context. This research investigates the inclusion of personality in models of military command decision-making. A simulation was implemented wherein a simulated commander must make critical decisions under multiple pressu-res. The commander’s human behavior model allows the specification of personality using a set of personality traits. In general, personality traits determine a person’s predisposition to exhibit a particular behavior under varying situational conditions. In this research, the commander’s personality traits and the situational conditions were combined to produce effects such as reaction time delay and decision accuracy and effectiveness modifications. The research showed that incorporating trait-based personality models of human behavior into simulations is feasible and can produce realistic effects on the decision-making of a simulated commander. It also revealed opportunities for further development of the approach.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">075</style></section></record></records></xml>
