The number and intensity of the neurons that fire will give an indication of the intensity of the stimulus. We now come to one of the confounding difficulties of the science of human factors: we are all different. The previous list gives sensory thresholds for the average person. However, there are certain individual factors that may make a person more or less sensitive to stimuli than the average person. An obvious example is someone who has worked in a noisy environment for many years and is suffering from noiseinduced hearing loss.
Any distraction should be immediately followed up with rechecking the situation, for example reassessing where you were in the task before the distraction occurred. For any in-flight distraction, particularly a technical malfunction, before selective attention is brought to bear on the problem, checking the flight mode annunciators may reduce the risk of not noticing a major change in the situation because of change blindness. 2 Sustained attention (passive monitoring/vigilance) Sustained attention is our ability to focus on a particular section of the environment in order to ascertain whether any relevant changes occur that might require our intervention.
Every single type of unsafe act that has led to any accident in the history of aviation can be traced back to a problem at one of these stages. This entire book is aimed at optimizing each one of these stages to improve the integrity of our information processing capabilities. 1 has a role in attention, perception and, especially, decision making. The neural mechanisms of attention and perception are complex and are beyond the scope of this book. However, the neural basis of decision making is extremely important and this knowledge about how neurons connect together is crucial to understand how humans make decisions based on cognitive processes known as “production rules”.
