Abstract: In order to explore formation mechanism of TSA for emergency rescue teams, and to clarify influence of personality, individual situation awareness (ISA) and social network relationship on its formation, relationships between these variables were empirically studied. Firstly, 364 senior students from fire command department of China people's Police University, selected as participants, were divided into 40 teams to rescue trapped victims in collapsed buildings after an earthquake, and their ISA and TSA data were collected during this drill. Then, their Big Five personality and daily CND data were acquired by online questionnaires. Finally, a dual regulation model with Openness dimension and neuroticism dimension from Big Five personality as independent variables and ISA and CND as moderating variables was constructed by regression analysis. The results indicate that Openness positively predicts TSA, and the higher Openness a team has, the higher TSA there will be. However, neuroticism negatively predicts TSA, and the lower neuroticism, the higher TSA there will be. Improvement of average ISA can enhance predictive effects of these two factors above while improvement of CND does the opposite.

Key words: emergency rescue, big five personality, team situation awareness (TSA), moderating effect, cooperation network density (CND)
