ABSTRACT

There is a lack of published research examining ways to mitigate the effects of attention on human error prevalence in the marine setting. Evidence from the aviation industry, a very similar field, shows that attention does impact performance, especially when more than one task is to be completed at the same time. Much like pilots, mariners are constantly completing tasks concurrently, and thus need to be able to disperse their attention over multiple sources of incoming information. Manipulating attention through effective education is proposed to reduce the rates of human error at sea. The relationship between attention, dual-task learning, and human information processing is explored in an attempt to provide a foundation for future researchers to dive deeper into this issue and create a curriculum that focuses on instilling attention allocation skills in novices.

摘要

缺乏已发表的研究，研究如何减轻注意力对海洋环境中人为错误普遍性的影响。来自航空业（一个非常相似的领域）的证据表明，注意力确实会影响绩效，尤其是在同时完成多项任务时。就像飞行员一样，水手们不断地同时完成任务，因此需要能够将注意力分散到多个传入信息源上。建议通过有效的教育来控制注意力，以减少海上人为错误的发生率。注意力、双任务学习、
