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.
