Effects of Information Source, Pedigree, and Reliability on Operator Interaction With Decision Support Systems
Abstract
Objective: Two experiments are described that examined operators' perceptions of decision aids. Background: Research has suggested certain biases against automation that influence human interaction with automation. We differentiated preconceived biases from post hoc biases and examined their effects on advice acceptance. Method: In Study 1 we examined operators' trust in and perceived reliability of humans versus automation of varying pedigree (expert vs. novice), based on written descriptions of these advisers prior to operators' interacting with these advisers. In Study 2 we examined participants' post hoc trust in, perceived reliability of, and dependence on these advisers after their objective experience of advisers' reliability (90% vs. 70%) in a luggage-screening task. Results: In Study 1 measures of perceived reliability indicated that automation was perceived as more reliable than humans across pedigrees. Measures of trust indicated that automated “novices” were trusted more than human “novices”; human “experts” were trusted more than automated “experts.” In Study 2, perceived reliability varied as a function of pedigree, whereas subjective trust was always higher for automation than for humans. Advice acceptance from novice automation was always higher than from novice humans. However, when advisers were 70% reliable, errors generated by expert automation led to a drop in compliance/ reliance on expert automation relative to expert humans. Conclusion: Preconceived expectations of automation influence the use of these aids in actual tasks. Application: The results provide a reference point for deriving indices of “optimal” user interaction with decision aids and for developing frameworks of trust in decision support systems.

In the citing paper
“Research has suggested that the principles of trust in interpersonal relations cannot be directly applicable to human-to-machine trust, as technology lacks volition and moral agency (e.g., Madhavan and Wiegmann 2007;McKnight et al. 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
