Human Factors Methods

HFM   SALMON PPC(250x172)PATH

The Centre’s research and translation activities are underpinned by the use of a range of human factors methods. Centre members are skilled in applying the following state-of-the-art human factors methods:

  • Accident Analysis Methods (e.g. Accimap, STAMP, HFACS)
  • Systems Analysis Methods (e.g. EAST, Cognitive Work Analysis)
  • Cognitive Task Analysis Methods (e.g. the Critical Decision Method, Applied Cognitive Task Analysis)
  • Task Analysis Methods (e.g. Hierarchical Task Analysis, Operator Event Sequence Diagrams)
  • Situation Awareness Assessment (e.g. Situation Awareness Network Analysis, Verbal Protocol Analysis)
  • Workload Assessment (e.g. NASA TLX)
  • Interface Design Methods (e.g. Link Analysis, Layout Analysis, Checklists, Usability Assessment)
  • Data Collection Methods (e.g. observational study, interviews, questionnaires, surveys)
  • Error Prediction and Analysis Methods (e.g. SHERPA, TRACEr, HET)
  • Teamwork Assessment Methods (e.g. EAST, Coordination Demands Analysis, Social Network Analysis)
