Human Reliability Analysis: Context and Control (Computers and People)

This book discusses how cognitive models are applied to the analysis of human decision making in complex technical domains, and provides a critique of existing models of human cognition. It is the first extended discussion of the existing approach to human-cognitive modelling in applied settings which puts forward an alternative approach.
This is a new and fresh approach to human performance analysis-it is of interest to anyone not currently satisfied with existing models.

Key Features
* Recognizes that the control of human actions is determined by the context as well as cognitive function
* New approach produced an improved quantitative analysis of human performance as a basis of later quantitative reliability assessment
