• Description:
  This plan outlines a test of Threat Image Projection (TIP) validity. Airport security screens will evaluate whether fictional threat images (FTIs) are as realistic as actual threat images. The test will compare screener performance on real threat items, FTIs, and Combined Threat Images (CTIs). Performance measures will assess difference in hits, misses, false alarms, and correct rejections for the different types of X-ray images.
