This study aimed at modeling the cause-and-effect relationships among different variables that can predict human error based on the fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making method. The study was carried out based on the opinions of 17 safety experts in 2020. The variables of the study were determined by reviewing previous research and the expert panel’s brainstorming process. The results revealed that among 14 studied variables, shift work, job satisfaction, environmental discomfort and role conflict can be singled out as the root causes of human error. Although human error is affected by each studied variable, each variable can influence human error differently. Hence, safety and controlling measures presented to reduce and prevent human error need to take into account the different roles and influence weight of variables. The result of this study is applicable to researchers and managers in different work environments.","PeriodicalId":22852,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical Issues in Ergonomics Science","volume":"23 1","pages":"259 - 276"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1463922X.2021.1938281","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47649096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Ergonomic risk assessment for musculoskeletal disorders in office workers (ERAMO) is a few specific tools available to evaluate the nature and occurrence of MSDs in office workers and the impact of individual and ergonomic aspects of office workers. The purpose of this study was to perform a construct validity (confirmatory factor analysis; CFA) and verify the reliability, internal consistency of the ERAMO in office workers. A sample of 300 workers from two of government enterprise in Bangkok, Thailand participated in this validation and internal consistency analysis. Intraclass correlation coefficient was used for the statistical analysis of test-retest reliability. The calculation of internal consistency, reproducibility provided evidence of reliability and lack of redundancy. The psychometric properties of the ERAMO were assessed using CFA, which revealed 3 models. For 2 models, the comparative fit index (CFI), goodness-of-fit index (GFI), and non-normed fit index (NNFI) each achieved 0.90, the Chi-square and root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) demonstrated better values. The results provided this ERAMO tool is a choice that can use for ergonomic risk assessment in office workers.

The COVID-19 pandemic is a cause of disquietude and is probably the gravest challenge encountered by the IT industry at present. Although the IT industry has contributed to varied sectors globally amid the crisis, IT professionals encounter a profusion of mental health challenges. Despite this, there have as yet been limited studies focusing on the mental health impact on IT professionals during this period. This study strives to explore the role of socio-demographic factors on perceived stress and to examine the association between gratitude and perceived stress among IT professionals in India during the pandemic. Data from 219 participants were included for analysis in this cross-sectional, correlational study. Findings suggest that there exists a significant difference in perceived stress based on gender, marital status, and parental status. Furthermore, the results demonstrate a significant negative association between gratitude and perceived stress. The study contributes to the field of cognitive ergonomics and broadens the theoretical knowledge base of perceived stress based on socio-demographic elements. Findings also have positive implications for organisational psychologists as they suggest that encouraging a focus on gratitude could aid in lower perceived stress.","PeriodicalId":22852,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical Issues in Ergonomics Science","volume":"23 1","pages":"182 - 198"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1463922X.2021.1901321","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44873157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While matters of phraseology and protocol in communication have been used to categorise communication error, formal inquiries into major rail accidents point to an underlying “authority gradient” as an influencing factor. The aim of this paper was to understand how the influence of authority gradients on communication error has been explored by communities of research and practice in rail. To achieve a holistic understanding and identification of key research gaps, this paper also reviewed prevalent tools and frameworks applied in rail human factors, as well as other sectors impacted by power disparities between teams. The review found that while evidence from industry reports is suggestive of an authority gradient in rail, no research has been conducted to support or refute this conclusion. Moreover, an absence of authority gradients in applied research draws attention to current methodological capabilities vs research foci. The relationship between the authority/power and status/value of core rail operational functions is conceptualised, and application of Hofstede’s theory of power distance to rail is considered. A number of research gaps are identified which indicate future research opportunities.","PeriodicalId":22852,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical Issues in Ergonomics Science","volume":"23 1","pages":"155 - 181"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1463922X.2021.1881653","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42929946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose here to study the implications of these demons in 45 industrial accidents involving robotic. These demons were associated with possible interactions a human may have in a robotic workspace. Our results showed that five of the eight SA demons appeared in the accident reports examined. The results showed that the identified SA demons were mainly associated with the first level of SA (perception level). We have also been able to describe five patterns of SA demon occurence in these accidents. SA demons are generally involved in human-robot interactions rather than human-environment interactions. Thanks to this analysis, we found that an operator’s SA is mainly impacted by the Errant Mental Model and Out-of-the-Loop SA demons in human-robot and human-environment interactions. Finally, we propose recommendations regarding workspace design.","PeriodicalId":22852,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical Issues in Ergonomics Science","volume":"23 1","pages":"60 - 79"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1463922X.2021.1879308","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47759288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rapid upper limb assessment (RULA) and rapid entire body assessment (REBA) are ergonomic assessment tools developed to evaluate the risks associated with these disorders. Both tools primarily evaluate these risks by examining body joint angle inputs, specifically by estimating a single joint angle, but in realistic situations, a full range of angles experienced is required to produce reliable evaluation. Furthermore, users of these tools may be uncertain of his/her estimation, especially if only a single joint angle is considered. A new approach based on Monte-Carlo simulation (MCS) in which joint angles are represented in distributions instead of single values is proposed to handle such issues. An empirical example is presented to compare traditional RULA and REBA to Monte-Carlo-RULA/Monte-Carlo-REBA approaches. The proposed approach exhibited a higher degree of sensitivity with respect to joint angles associated with variability and uncertainty.","PeriodicalId":22852,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical Issues in Ergonomics Science","volume":"22 1","pages":"673 - 688"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/1463922X.2021.1893406","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43990138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
