SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: ARI Game Evaluation; OMB
Control Number 0702–XXXX.
Needs and Uses: This information
collection will follow best practices in
assessment development by collecting
feedback about the ease of use, clarity,
and usability from individuals who
complete the Systems Thinking
Abilities game and by collecting
demographic information about those
individuals to ensure they are similar to
the intended end users. The game
players are freelance workers from
Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk) site
who will be paid to play the Systems
Thinking Abilities game and respond to
the questions included in this
information collection. Participants will
be master Amazon MTurk workers
(workers that demonstrate excellence in
a range of MTurk tasks) with a
minimum age of 18 years old and a
maximum age of 55 years old with
normal color vision. Participants will be
located in the United States and high
school graduates. Respondents will not
be sent invitations to participate,
instead they can sign up to participate
through the MTurk website. Each
participant will complete the Systems
Thinking Abilities game, the evaluation
questions and the demographic
information using his or her computer
from a location of his or her choice. The
ARI Game Evaluation Form will be
linked through the MTurk site and
responses will be entered and returned
online. Once participants complete their
assigned section(s) they will be paid for
their time through MTurk. Data will be
analyzed following completion of data
collection activities.
Evaluation Questions: Participants
will respond to a series of multiple
choice and open-ended questions to
capture their experience with the
Systems Thinking Abilities game. These
questions are included on the ARI Game
Evaluation Form. The collected data
will be retrieved and processed by
Personnel Decisions Research Institutes
(PDRI), a contractor working for ARI.
Summary statistics will be generated
and the open-ended feedback will be
content coded. The information
collected on participant feedback will
be used to identify modifications
needed to the software to improve the
clarity or ease of use. Findings will be
documented in a technical report.
Demographic Questions: Participants
will complete questions through an
online survey format regarding

demographics and background
experiences. Demographic questions
include age, gender, ethnicity, race,
education attainment, and experience
questions related to past experience
with computer technology. These
questions are included on the ARI Game
Evaluation Form. The collected data
will be retrieved and processed by PDRI.
The demographic information will be
documented in a technical report
describing the initial testing.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Annual Burden Hours: 23.3.
Number of Respondents: 100.

The U.S. Army Research Institute for
the Behavioral and Social Sciences
(ARI) is developing an innovative gamebased assessment to evaluate an
individual’s systems thinking abilities.
Systems thinking is important for job
success in areas such as cyber security,
engineering, and mission planning. As
an assessment, the Systems Thinking
Abilities game needs to be evaluated to
ensure it measures what is intended and
relates to performance in jobs that
require systems thinking. This
Information Collection will follow best
practices in assessment development by
collecting feedback about the ease of
use, clarity, and usability from
individuals who complete the Systems
Thinking Abilities game and by
collecting demographic information
about those individuals to ensure they
are similar to the intended end users.
