The aim of this presentation is twofold: first, to present the field of psychology including its research methods and, second, to show on an example how psychology can be used in material research. The example is of the study of human factors in non-destructive testing (NDT), in which the author has more than 10 years of experience. The conclusion is that psychological methods can be used to identify human-related problems during different tasks and to generate mitigation strategies that can be used to decrease human error and enhance safety.
This presentation offers a holistic view on the assessment of reliability of NDT including the intrinsic reliability (typically expressed in terms of probability of detection (POD) curves), application, human and organisational factors. In addition to POD, advanced methods such as multiparameter POD, volume POD and POD for combined data are presented. Human and organisational factors in NDT require a systematic approach, i.e. it is not just the individual that determines how the inspections are carried out but also the interactions of individuals with the technology, team, organisation and the extra-organisational environment. Lessons learned from the literature as well as from own studies are presented.
