The Videodisc Interpersonal Skills Training and Assessment (VISTA) project was conceived as a means to use computer-assisted leadership training to reduce high personnel costs associated with assessment center training and simulation. Originated by the Army Research Institute's Ft. Benning Field Unit, the research effort included topic analysis, hardware selection, software development, scenario writing, studio production, editing, and videodisc mastering. Final evaluation of the videodiscs included the administration of two tests, one designed to measure the acquisition of leadership skills, and the other a subjective preference test designed to measure user acceptance. Nine highly interactive videodisc training scenarios covering 20 leadership problems were produced. The evaluation of the scenarios indicated that the videodisc method resulted in significantly greater learning of leadership principles, with the majority of students indicating that a combination of videodisc and role playing would be optimal for leadership training.
