Because of the nature of intelligence analysis it is extremely unlikely that analysts will ever be completely replaced by computer systems. In their work analysts face a great many obstacles including deception and their own cognitive biases. The prototype system described here attempts to provide analysts with a structured, supportive and challenging environment that can be used in conjunction with proprietary and open source tools to help them deal with the complexities of the issues they face. Further, the system is designed to encourage collaborative working and transparency of process.

The psychometric properties (α = .81; several validities, r = .18, .44) indicated that the scale might be of use in monitoring performance of students in health-related courses.

Like much of the technology we now take for granted, the internet started out as a project of the United States military. Faced with the problem of how communications might be maintained following a nuclear strike by enemy forces, the defence establishment developed the Advanced Research Projects Agency which ultimately spawned ARPAnet, the world's first decentralised computer network. Ten years ago, the United States National Science Foundation linked up five university super computers to form NSFnet, and in the following years more and more countries, institutions, organisations and individuals have joined this computing network. The development accelerated in the early 1990s as techniques for finding information, navigational tools and graphical browsers became available. It is now estimated that over 30 million people worldwide have access to this internet. In the context of Health Education and Promotion the...
