Situation awareness has recently gained considerable attention as a performance-related psychological concept. This is especially true in the aviation domain where it is considered an essential prerequisite for the safe operation of the complex dynamic system 'aircraft.' There are concerns, however, that inappropriately designed automatic systems introduced to advanced flight decks may reduce situation awareness and thereby put aviation safety at risk. Situation awareness has thus become a ubiquitous phrase. It's use is most often based on an intuitive understanding; a commonly accepted definition is still missing. To fill this gap, we analyze the cognitive basis of the concept, embedding it in the context of related psychological concepts. On this basis, methodological approaches to the investigation of situation awareness are discussed.
