High-profile accidents in the Chemical sector—across research and manufacturing scales—have provided strong drivers to develop a new benchmark in safety training and compliance. Herein, we describe the design, implementation, and standardized psychological evaluation of virtual reality (VR) applied to process safety training. Through a specific industrial case study, we show that testable learning of complex safety-specific tasks in VR is statistically equivalent to traditional slide-based video training. However, VR training presents a measurable positive improvement on trainees’ perception of overall learning and their feeling of presence in the task during training. It has also been shown that knowledge retention from video lectures can be overestimated, if not controlled. Through these results—and our transferable blueprint for robustly assessing any new VR training platform—we envisage a range of technologically enabled efforts to enhance safety performance in both laboratory- and plant-based activities. Implications for physical resource-saving projects are also described.

虚拟现实的可转移心理评估在化工生产中的安全培训

在研究和制造领域，化工领域的重大事故为推动安全培训和法规遵从性的新基准提供了强大的动力。在这里，我们描述了应用于过程安全培训的虚拟现实（VR）的设计，实现和标准化的心理评估。通过一个特定的行业案例研究，我们表明VR中针对复杂安全特定任务的可测试学习在统计上等同于传统的基于幻灯片的视频培训。但是，VR培训对受训者对整体学习的感知及其在培训过程中的存在感提供了可衡量的积极改进。还表明，如果不加以控制，视频讲座中的知识保留可能会被高估。通过这些结果，以及用于可靠评估任何新的VR培训平台的可移植蓝图，我们设想了一系列技术上可行的努力，以增强实验室和工厂活动的安全性能。还描述了对节省物理资源的项目的影响。
