Nick, an interesting presentation and the role of Human Factors in the causation of incidents is fundamental to understanding how to improve safety and better inform divers of the risks they are taking. However, whilst Petar et al's Triggers identify the 'what' that happened, they don't necessarily explain the 'why'. "If we don’t understand why people see their decisions are normal, as safe, at the time, we will never be able to intervene meaningfully and prevent an accident such as this one.", Dekker Much of the work I am doing as part of my PhD in this area is on my Wordpress Blog here - www.cognitas.org.uk. I also have a TH-cam Channel th-cam.com/users/CognitasIncident where some of the presentations I have given are listed. Regards Gareth
Dr. Bird is AWESOME!
