Cover Story: Conventional methods to gather information about pilots’ mental state and skills are typically based on expert supervision and self-reports. These measurements are highly operator-dependent (personal experience and emotional bias), require interrupting the tasks (invasiveness and low temporal resolution), and do not include information related to pilots’ cognitive demand (paucity of user's insights). Thus, clear how these measurements alone cannot be used to properly assess pilots’ state, skills, and ongoing situation. Neurophysiological measures gained momentum in different research and operative contexts and represent an objective, unobtrusive, and a powerful tool to determine users' affective state on the basis of mind-body relations. The computation and combination of different data will therefore radically change the field of mental state monitoring and training tailoring. View this paper
