| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, cognitive,psychological and brain studies have performed to find the method to improve the capability to deal with unexpected situations in nuclear power plant. Two simulation environments (Micro world simulation and PC-based Nuclear power plant simulator ) have been utilized to evaluate the human performance when facing unexpected situations.
It has been confirmed through cognitive experiments using Micro world simulation that the task performance facing severe situation is positively correlated with the one for normal situations.
It has also been confirmed that human performance for unexpected situation tends to improve when the subjects were given with the deep knowledge.Based on the above findings, it is concluded that the important insights have been obtained for the evaluation of human behavior when facing unexpected events and for the improvements of operation training.
