Human Performance Cognitive-Behavioral Modeling: A Benefit for Occupational Safety

Human performance cognitive-behavioral modeling: a benefit for occupational safety.

Human Performance Modeling (HPM) is a computer-aided job analysis software methodology used to generate predictions of complex human-automation integration and system flow patterns with the goal of improving operator and system safety. The use of HPM tools has recently been increasing due to reductions in computational cost, augmentations in the tools' fidelity, and usefulness in the generated ...

Human Error Modeling Predictions: Increasing Occupational Safety Using Human Performance Modeling Tools

The use of computer-aided job analysis tools has been increasing in the recent past as a result of decreases in computational costs, augmentations in the reality of the computer-aided job analysis tools, and usefulness of the output generated from these tools. One tool set known as integrated Human Performance Modeling (HPM) is a humanout-of-the-loop (HOOTL) computational methodology used to ge...

Occupational cognitive failures and safety performance in the workplace.

Introduction. The majority of industrial accidents occur because of human errors. Human error has different causes, however, in all cases cognitive abilities and limitations of human play an important role. Occupational cognitive failures are cognitively-based human errors that occur at work. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between occupational cognitive failures and safet...

Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance Approach for Iranian Elderly without Cognitive Impairments: A Single Subject Study

Purposes: The elderly population in Iran is growing. Aging is a natural phenomenon that causes changes in brain structures, including the frontal lobe and its connections, which are responsible for the executive functions of the brain. These structural changes lead to problems in cognitive and physical functioning and the elderly face problems such as decreased performance in daily activities o...
