Behavioral Characteristics of Slips and Mistakes Observed in The Analysis of Reaction Times

수행 오류는 대규모 인명 손실을 동반하는 심각한 재앙을 유발할 수 있다. 이러한 오류를 예방하기 위해서는 다양한 오류 유형의 행동적 특성을 규명하는 것이 필요하다. 이 연구는 인간공학 분야에서 개념적으로 분류한 오류 유형인 실수와 착오의 행동적 특성을 확인하기 위해, 선택적 주의가 요구되는 색상-단어 스트룹 과제와 규칙 인출이 요구되는 단어-도형 전환 과제에서 발생한 오류와 관련된 시행들의 반응시간을 비교하였다. 분석 결과, 스트룹 과제에서 관찰된 반응시간은 정확 시행보다 더 빠른 것으로 관찰되었지만, 전환 과제에서의 반응시간은 정확 시행보다 더 느린 것으로 나타났다. 또한 두 경우 모두 오류후 시행의 반응시간은 정확 시행보다 더 느린 것으로 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과는 실수와 착오가 행동적으로 서로 다른 행동 특성을 보인다는 것을 보여준다.

Abstract

Human errors can cause various accidents which accompany massive loss of lives. In an effort to prevent such errors, it is necessary to identify behavioral characteristics of errors. The present study was conducted to identify behavioral characteristics of slips and mistakes that are conceptually classified error types in ergonomics. To this end, we compared between reaction times of error-related trials in the color-word Stroop task requiring selective attention and word-shape switching task requiring rule retrieval. The results indicated that reaction times were faster for the error trials than for the correct trials in the Stroop task, whereas those were slower for the error trials than for the correct trials in the switching task. In the both tasks, reaction times were slower for the post-error trials than the correct trials. These findings indicate that slips and mistakes can have different behavioral characteristics.
