Abstract
This chapter aims to integrate fundamental cognitive theories into a usable and explanatory model for combat identification. To help capture why some types of misidentification problems occur, we will look to Feature Integration Theory (Treisman and Gelade, 1980), Recognition By Components Theory (Biederman, 1987) and Working Memory Theory (Baddeley and Wilson, 2002).
