Motivation - The study describes an on-going effort to develop empirically-based operational visualization concepts and their implementations to support sensemaking skills in ill-structured problem situations. Research approach -Military officers with command experiences are used to conduct sensemaking exercises in simple and moderately complex scenarios. Findings/Design -The study is a 2×2 between-subject design with two task scenarios and two sensemaking tools conditions. The use of Analysis of Variance revealed mean differences between aided and unaided groups and across task scenarios. Research limitations/Implications - The results indicate the need to use environment visualization aids to support sensemakers who normally deal with ill-structured problem situations. The limitation of the study is studying the different types of cue prompting and their presentation modalities (e.g., a combination of auditory and visual modes). Originality/Value -The existing literatures on situation awareness do not clarify the relationship between display and visualization, and sensemaking performance in ill-structured problem situations. Take away message - Attaining decision superiority in technology-enabled work place is enabled primarily by visualization and display tools which can make sensemaking tasks less cognitively taxing.
