Quantitative and formal models of dynamic actions of humans in machine environments are usually based on formalisms that interrelate measurable or computable features of behaviour or set up relations of these features with time. Mainly engineers have set up such models for about 50 years as a tool for the development of traffic systems, control rooms of nuclear power or chemical plants, or aircraft. Problems in these models do not lie in the dynamics of action, but in the description of influences, which are cognitive, motivational, or emotional. This paper deals with the integration of such factors, which are normally described non-formally in psychological theories and models into quantitative and formal models of dynamic action - explained for the modelling of motivational influences and mental models. The methodological problems are pointed out for the hypothetical example of driver assistant systems.
