CHAPTER TITLE: Human Behavior

Below is a list of the figures (diagrams, charts, and pictures) from the AIH Chapter 2. They are listed in the order they are found in the Aviation Instructor's Handbook.

AUDIO RECORDING

FIGURE 2-1

The average age of a learner pilot is 34, while the average age of a maintenance learner is 25.

FIGURE 2-2

Insecure and unpleasant training situations inhibit learning.

FIGURE 2-3

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.

FIGURE 2-4

Daniel Kahneman developed a two-system view of human behaviors that affect decision-making: System 1 (fast) represents the automatic responses, while System 2 (slow) represents the more logical and deliberate considerations used for decision-making.

FIGURE 2-5

Several common defense mechanisms may apply to aviation learners.

FIGURE 2-6

The assignment of impossible or unreasonable goals discourages the learner, diminishes effort, and retards the learning process.

FIGURE 2-7

Poor preparation leads to spotty coverage, misplaced emphasis, unnecessary repetition, and a lack of confidence on the part of the learner. The instructor should always have a plan.

FIGURE 2-8

A learner with marked changes in mood during different lessons, such as excellent morale followed by deep depression, is indicative of an abnormal reaction to stress.
