%SPEAKER NOTES: See comments below
|
|

|
|
\textbf{The Human Error Problem:}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item 70--80\% of events attributed to human error (multiple independent analyses)
|
|
\item IAEA: ``Human error was the root cause of ALL severe accidents'' (TMI, Chernobyl, Fukushima)
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Three Mile Island (1979):}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item 100+ simultaneous alarms overwhelmed operators
|
|
\item Operators shut down emergency cooling based on incorrect assessment
|
|
\item Result: 44\% of fuel melted
|
|
\item Risk assessment was off by 500-fold (5\% actual vs 0.01\% predicted)
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Fundamental Cognitive Limitations:}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Working memory: 7±2 items (Miller, 1956)
|
|
\item HEP: 0.001--0.01 optimal $\rightarrow$ 0.1--1.0 under accident conditions
|
|
\item Four decades of training improvements haven't changed the 70--80\% ratio
|
|
\end{itemize}
