Abstract
The study investigates the relationship between team familiarity (both professional and personal) and Shared Spatial Situational Awareness (SSSA) during a flight simulation task. The findings suggest that team familiarity, and specifically personal familiarity, is important for both SSSA accuracy and the percentage of unknown lost SSSA state instances. Interestingly, professional familiarity was not found to be significant.
