Evolution of Human Factors Research in Aviation Safety: A Systematic Review and Bibliometric Analysis of the Intellectual Structure

How flight experience impacts pilots’ decision-making and visual scanning pattern in low-visibility approaches: preliminary evidence from eye tracking

Abstract The visual approach is the most accident-prone phase of a flight, especially in low-visibility conditions. This preliminary study aimed to examine the effects of flight experience on pilots’ decision-making and …

Human Factors as Predictor of Fatalities in Aviation Accidents: A Neural Network Analysis

In the area of aviation safety, the importance of human factors is indisputable. This research endeavors to assess the importance of human factors in predicting fatalities during aviation mishaps.

Human-AI Teams in Aviation: Considerations from Human Factors and Team Science

Analysis on coupling dynamic effect of human errors in aviation safety.

Human factors have increasingly been the leading cause of aircraft accidents. In most cases, human factors are not working alone, instead they are coupled with complex environment, mechanical factors, physiological and p…

Development of effective human factors interventions for aviation safety management

Introduction In the aviation industry, safety management has moved away from capturing frontline failures toward the management of systemic conditions through organizational safety management systems (SMS).

An Aviator Centered Approach to Mental Health: A Preliminary Look at Stressors, Barriers to Care, and Untreated Aviator Mental Health

The purposeful crash of Germanwings 9525 in March 2015 provided a wake-up call to the aviation community on the ramifications of untreated mental health in commercial aviation.

Validation of Training Satisfaction Survey

The Training Satisfaction Survey (TSS) was developed as part of a larger project to examine the features of Virtual Reality software and supporting devices as a training program on visual illusions and spatial disorienta…

Impact of human factors in aircraft accident mitigation and aircraft maintenance training needs in post COVID-19 aviation

Purpose The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of human factor training in aircraft maintenance accident mitigation and aircraft safety in post COVID-19 aviation scenarios.

Improving Air Traffic Identification by Conducting Refresher Training of Analog and Digital Clocks

Air traffic controllers (ATC) frequently alert pilots to air traffic using an analog clock metaphor. When ATC issues a traffic alert indicating that traffic is at 2 o’clock, the pilot should look approximately 60° to the…

Human Factors Analysis of Air Traffic Safety Based on HFACS-BN Model

Air traffic control (ATC) performance is important to ensure flight safety and the sustainability of aviation growth. To better evaluate the performance of ATC, this paper introduces the HFACS-BN model (HFACS: Human fact…

An analysis of human factors in fifty controlled flight into terrain aviation accidents from 2007 to 2017.

INTRODUCTION Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT) account for a considerable amount of fatalities when compared to other accident categories. Human factors are deemed significant contributory causes in these accidents.

Human Factors Hazards of IPADS In General Aviation Cockpits

A narrative analysis revealed issues with improper use of zooming/panning, data selection/reading/entry errors, database currency, and workload due to unfamiliarity with the iPad that should be considered in hazard mitig…

The effects of emotion on pilot decision-making: a neuroergonomic approach to aviation safety

Affective decision making under uncertainty during a plausible aviation task: An fMRI study

The authors' neuroimaging results reveal a shift from cold to hot decision making in response to high uncertainty when participants were exposed to the financial incentive, and a disruptive effect of biased financial inc…
