The purpose of this research was to determine (1) whether introducing motion into the Basic Combat Vehicle Identification (CVI) Training Program produces improved performance following initial and repeated training; (2) whether motion facilitates learning by soldiers who were not training responsive (NTR) in acquiring recognition and identification (R&I) skills, compared to soldiers who were training responsive (TR); and (3) whether motion helps soldiers retain recognition and identification materials over an 18-hour period. Soldiers from the 1st and 3rd Brigades of the 85th Army Reserve Division (Tng) (One Station Unit Training), Arlington Heights, Illinois, received R&I training. Each soldier received three training sessions with three modules from the CVI program with one of four types of motion: (1) rotational, (2) circular, (3) straightline, and (4) static (no motion). Useable data were obtained from 71 soldiers. Major conclusions drawn from analyses of these data include the following: Motion (after repeated training) provides a small positive effect but does not appear to be an essential ingredient in learning ground-to-ground vehicle R&I using the Basic CVI Training Program. This is true for both training responsive and non-training responsive soldiers. Short term retention of learned R&I skills is no improved when motion is included in the training.
