Skills, rules and knowledge in aircraft maintenance : errors in context / Alan Hobbs, Ann Williamson
Automatic or skill-based behaviour is generally considered to be less prone to error than behaviour directed by conscious control. It is proposed that this is largely a reflection of the opportunities for error which workplaces present and does not indicate that skill-based behaviour is intrinsically unreliable. In the present study, 99 errors reported by 72 aircraft mechanics were examined in the light of a task analysis based on observations of the work of 25 aircraft mechanics
