Background: Transportation accidents that, across a 30-year interval demonstrated identical automationrelated operator errors, suggest a need to reexamine traditional views of automation. Method: I review accident investigation reports, regulator studies, and literature on human computer interaction, expertise, and training and discuss how failing to attend to the interaction of automation, expertise level, and training has enabled operators to commit identical automation-related errors. Results: Automated systems continue to provide capabilities exceeding operators' need for effective system operation and provide interfaces that can hinder, rather than enhance, operator automation-related situation awareness. Because of limitations in time and resources, training programs do not provide operators the expertise needed to effectively operate these automated systems, requiring them to obtain the expertise ad hoc during system operations. As a result, many do not acquire necessary automation-related system expertise. Conclusion: Integrating automation with expected operator expertise levels, and within training programs that provide operators the necessary automation expertise, can reduce opportunities for automation-related operator errors. Application: Research to address the automationby-expertise-by-training interaction is needed. However, such research must meet challenges inherent to examining realistic sociotechnical system automation features with representative samples of operators, perhaps by using observational and ethnographic research. Research in this domain should improve the integration of design and training and, it is hoped, enhance operator performance.

SP - 771 EP - 781 JO - Traffic Injury Prevention JF - Traffic Injury Prevention JA - TRAFFIC INJ PREV VL - 17 IS - 8 CY - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania PB - Taylor & Francis Ltd AB - Objective: Despite successes in the 1980s and early 1990s, progress in reducing impaired driving fatalities in the United States has stagnated in recent years. Since 1997, the percentage of drivers involved in fatal crashes with illegal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) levels has remained at approximately 20 to 22%. Many experts believe that public complacency, competing social and public health issues, and the lack of political fortitude have all contributed to this stagnation. The number of alcohol-related crashes, injuries, and fatalities is still unacceptable, and most are preventable. The public needs to be aware that the problem presented by drinking drivers has not been solved. Political leaders need guidance on which measures will affect the problem, and stakeholders need to be motivated once again to implement effective strategies.Methods: The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) Transportation Research Board (TRB), Alcohol, Other Drugs, and Transportation Committee (ANB50) sponsored a workshop held at the NAS facility in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, on August 24-25, 2015, to discuss the lack of progress in reducing impaired driving and to make recommendations for future progress. A total of 26 experts in research and policy related to alcohol-impaired driving participated in the workshop. The workshop began by examining the static situation in the rate of alcohol-impaired driving fatal crashes to determine what factors may be inhibiting further progress. The workshop then discussed 8 effective strategies that have not been fully implemented in the United States. Workshop participants (16 of the 26) rated their top 3 strategies.Results: 3 strategies received the most support: 1. Impose administrative sanctions for drivers with BACs = 0.05 to 0.08 g/dL. 2. Require alcohol ignition interlocks for all alcohol-impaired driving offenders. 3. Increase the frequency of sobriety checkpoints, including enacting legislation to allow them in the 11 states that currently prohibit them. 5 other important strategies included the following: (1) increase alcohol taxes to raise the price and reduce alcohol consumption; (2) reengage the public and raise the priority of impaired driving; (3) lower the illegal per se BAC limit to 0.05 for a criminal offense; (4) develop and implement in-vehicle alcohol detection systems; and (5) expand the use of screening and brief interventions in medical facilities.Conclusions: Each of these strategies is proven to be effective, yet all are substantially underutilized. Each is used in some jurisdictions in the United States or Canada, but none is used extensively. Any one of the 3 strategies implemented on a widespread basis would decrease impaired driving crashes, injuries, and fatalities. Based on the research, all 3 together would have a substantial impact on the problem.

The athletes on the bus, all male and aged 14-18 years, were participants in their school's concussion management program that included baseline and postinjury testing using Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT).Methods: This case study described changes in concussion assessment scores for 30 male athletes following a primarily frontal school bus crash. Data from the school's concussion management program, including baseline test data and postinjury assessment data, were reviewed. Athletes who required multiple postinjury assessments by the program were identified as having had significant cognitive changes as a result of the bus crash.Results: Twenty-nine of 30 athletes were injured. One had lumbar compression fractures; others had various lacerations, abrasions, contusions, sprains, and nasal fractures. ImPACT data (postcrash) were available for all 30 athletes and 28 had available precrash baseline data. A total of 16 athletes (53.3%) had significant cognitive changes indicated by changes in their concussion assessment scores, some of which took months to improve.Conclusion: This case study highlights a unique opportunity to evaluate concussion assessment data from 30 male athletes involved in a high-speed school bus crash. Further, these data provide additional insight into assessing the effectiveness of current school bus occupant protection systems.

AB - When faced with dynamic and often ill-structured situations, experienced decision makers can quickly recognize and respond to the situations they encounter, a process referred to as naturalistic decision making. Naturalistic decision-making research has addressed decision-making errors in complex systems, including those that have resulted in accidents, and explained the decision making that led to the errors. Although much research has been suggested by accident investigations, little has been written about how accident investigators apply naturalistic decision-making research to decision-making errors in the accidents they investigate. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the contribution of naturalistic decision making to accident investigation by describing how investigators explicated decision making in an accident that lacked much of the data that investigators and researchers have typically depended on to examine errors and determine accident causation.

AB - Use of over-the-counter, prescription, and illicit drugs is increasing in the United States (US). Many of these drugs are psychoactive and can affect the user’s ability to safely operate a vehicle. However, data about drug use by vehicle operators is typically limited to a small proportion of operators and a short list of drugs. For instance, required testing for commercial vehicle operators following most accidents is limited to a urine test for 11 drugs. By comparison, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), routinely tests fatally injured pilots’ blood and tissues for hundreds of compounds. This study used the results from these tests to assess drug use in aviation. Methods: Using matched data from the FAA’s Civil Aerospace Medical Institute toxicology database and the National Transportation Safety Board’s (NTSB’s) aviation accident database, this study examined trends in the prevalence of over-the-counter, prescription, and illicit drugs identified in toxicology tests of fatally injured pilots between 1990 and 2012. Cases that failed to match or where toxicology testing had not been performed were excluded. Pilots identified by the NTSB investigation as being the 'flying pilot' at the time of the accident and results from blood or tissues were included. Toxicology results for ethanol and other alcohols were not included. Positive test results were categorized by drug type and potential for causing impairment. Analysis used SPSS Version 19.1 to perform linear by linear chi-squared statistics. Results: The study included 6677 pilots or 87% of the eligible subjects. The large majority were male (98%) and flying general aviation operations (96%) at the time of their fatal accident. There were increasing trends in pilots’ use of all drugs, potentially impairing drugs, drugs used to treat potentially impairing conditions, drugs designated as controlled substances, and illicit drugs. The most common potentially impairing drug pilots had used was diphenhydramine, a sedating antihistamine that is an active ingredient in many over-the-counter allergy formulations, cold medicines, and sleep aids in the US. Although evidence of illicit drug use was found only in a small number of cases, the percentage of pilots testing positive for marijuana use increased during the study period, mostly in the last 10 years.

This study explored the extent of the misclassification and undercounting problem for crashes in FARS and state crash databases.Methods: Truck misclassifications for fatal crashes were explored by comparing the Trucks Involved in Fatal Accidents (TIFA) database with FARS. TIFA used vehicle identification numbers (VINs) and survey information to classify large trucks. This study used VINs to improve the accuracy of large truck classifications in state crash databases from 5 states (Delaware, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, and Utah).Results: The vehicle body type codes resulted in a 19% undercount of single-unit trucks in FARS and a 23% undercount of single-unit trucks in state databases. Tractor-trailers were misclassified less often. Misclassifications occurred most frequently among single-unit trucks in the weight classes of 10,001-14,000 pounds.Conclusions: The amount of misclassification of large trucks is large enough to potentially affect federal and state decisions on traffic safety. Using information from VINs results in more complete and accurate counts of large trucks involved in crashes. The National Transportation Safety Board recommended actions to improve federal and state crash data. SN - 1538-9588 AD - National Transportation Safety Board, Washington, D.C.

A key finding in the medical investigation was the engineer's post-accident diagnosis of severe, obstructive sleep apnea, and the probable cause of the accident was determined to be the result of the engineer having fallen asleep while operating the train. This accident highlights the importance of screening, evaluating, and ensuring adequate treatment of obstructive sleep apnea, particularly among patients working in positions where impairment of physical or cognitive function or sudden incapacitation may result in serious harm to the public.

JO - Safety Science JF - Safety Science Y1 - 2015/08// VL - 77 M3 - Article SP - 102 EP - 111 SN - 09257535 AB - Considerable attention has been paid to safety culture since the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear power station accident. Researchers have studied it and companies and regulators have applied it to enhance safety. However, few research studies have been conducted that establish a link between safety culture and operational or process safety and methods used to assess safety culture, primarily questionnaires, have been criticized on methodological grounds. One way to enhance system safety is through applying the lessons of investigations of accidents of process safety to remediate organizational shortcomings identified in the investigation. Rather than attempting to assess safety culture directly, examining company actions and decisions directly after an accident can allow investigators to make inferences about safety culture at the time of the accident. This study suggests a method to directly examine the role of organizations in accidents by identifying the nature of organizational errors and describing the logic that can link these errors to accident causation. The application of this method in several accident investigations is described.

Endsley’s thoughtful clarifications in this article have addressed some of the so-called fallacies surrounding situation awareness (SA). Still, the fact that these misconceptions and misperceptions exist suggests a potential collective degradation of SA in the research community; but on the bright side for all of us (myself included), the debate in this issue, including calls for continued research, should help in its restoration.

The objective of the current experiment then was to validate the use of the model in predicting stress effects on pilot decision performance. A MIDIS flight, similar to the one employed in the previous study by Wickens et al. was used for this second study. The stress condition was defined according to a cognitive-appraisal model in which perception of task demand, cognitive resources, uncertainty, and the importance of succeeding were manipulated via the imposition of four variables simultaneously: (1) Financial risk imposed by ensuring that a steep loss in monetary reward ensued if flight time exceeded a time deadline and by penalizing suboptimal responding during the flight. (2) Increased workload imposed by requiring performance of a concurrent Sternberg memory search task. This workload was rendered difficult to shed by virtue of the financial penalty. (3) Distracting noise imposed as an irritating sequence of tones at a sound pressure of 74 to 77 dB spl at each incorrect Sternberg response. Uncertainty was also increased by the presentation of the tones at random intervals (ostensibly as a warning that overall performance was becoming marginal). (4) Time stress imposed by requiring the flight to be completed in one hour. This was a most stringent requirement, because the 1-hour criterion was derived from the mean time taken by unstressed subjects, that is, subjects whose performance was untrammeled by distractions, workload, and so forth. Our purpose in combining the four manipulations in this way was to operate from the basis of a coherent and defensible model of operational stress, and thus to permit important stress variables to act synergistically in influencing performance.

Issue Publication Date: Aug, 2014. Copyright Statement: The Aerospace Medical Association, Alexandria, VA AB - Background: General aviation accidents involving children are rare, but when they do happen, little is known about the children involved, including their age, restraint status, and injuries. This lack of information is due to the fact that the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) did not always collect detailed data about passengers involved in accidents. Methods: Consequently, in 2011, NTSB investigators collected detailed information on children involved in general aviation accidents and this report provides a summary of the outcomes. Results: During 2011, 19 general aviation accidents and incidents included 39 children who were 14 yr old and younger. In total, 26 children sustained fatal injuries, 2 sustained serious injuries, 5 sustained minor injuries, and 6 sustained no injuries. All of the children less than 2 yr old were restrained in a child restraint system and sustained no injuries in the accidents. Discussion: At least one 4-yr-old child would have benefited from being restrained in a child restraint system. In addition, in two accidents, it was determined that children were likely sharing a single seat belt. This year-long data collection regarding children involved in general aviation accidents provided substantial information concerning age, restraint status, and injuries. In response to issues identified, the NTSB made improvements to its aviation data management system to routinely collect this information for future investigations and enable subsequent evaluation of the data regarding child passengers involved in general aviation accidents over the long term.

Methods: A cohort of 29,754 Maryland drivers ticketed for speeding who either went to court or paid fines by mail in May/June 2003 was followed for 3 years. Drivers appearing in court were categorized by verdicts: 1) not guilty, 2) suspension of prosecution/no prosecution (STET/NP), 3) case dismissed, 4) probation before judgment (PBJ) and fines, or 5) fines and demerit points. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (AHR). Results: Court appearances were associated with lower risk of subsequent speeding citations (AHR = 0.92; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.88–0.96), but higher risk of crashes (AHR = 1.25; 95% CI, 1.16–1.35). PBJ was associated with significantly lower repeat speeding tickets (AHR = 0.83; 95% CI, 0.75–0.91) and a non-significant decrease in crashes (AHR = 0.87; 95% CI, 0.75–1.02). Both repeat speeding tickets and subsequent crashes were significantly lower in the STET/NP group. Conclusions: PBJ and STET/NP may reduce speeding and crashes, but neither verdict eliminated excess crash risk among drivers who choose court appearances. Randomized, controlled evaluations of speeding countermeasures are needed to inform traffic safety policies.

We hypothesize that students who participate in safety curricula are knowledgeable regarding patient safety and likely to intervene to avoid patient errors. Methods: A two-part patient safety curriculum was taught: introductory theories (first year) and a clinically oriented course during surgery rotations (third year). All students participated in the first year introduction and a random cohort of students (62.6%, N = 67) participated in the third year program. Multiple choice tests and web-based surveys were administered. Statistical analysis was carried out using Student''s t-test for comparisons of test mean scores and z-test for comparison of the survey data. Results: Students who participated in both years'' curricula scored higher on didactic test than those who participated in only the first year course (82.9% versus 75.5%, P < 0.001). More students participating in both portions of the curricula intervened during at least one clinical encounter to avoid a patient error (77% versus 61%, P < 0.05). Students rated junior house-staff more receptive to patient safety suggestions than surgical fellows and faculty (84% versus 66%, P < 0.05); 75% of students rated their surgical clerkship exposure to patient safety somewhat/extremely valuable compared with 54% students who rated the first year exposure as somewhat/extremely valuable (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Medical students who have practical applications of patient safety education reinforced during surgery rotations are knowledgeable and willing to intervene in patient safety concerns. Teaching clinically relevant patient safety skills influences positive behavioral changes in medical students'' performance on surgical teams.

AB - A review of fatigue-management approaches proposed an alternative to hours of service (HOS) regulations based on prior sleep and wakefulness (PSW). This approach states that an individual must have ≥X h and ≥Y h sleep in the 24-h and 48-h periods prior to work, respectively; and that the continuous period for which they have been awake by the end of the shift must be less than or equal to the amount of sleep they have had in the prior 48 h. An a priori model with X = 5 and Y = 12 was suggested. This study investigated the ability to predict fatigue-related accidents using: (a) the a priori model; (b) an optimized model (manipulating X and Y); (c) models with continuous or split sleep; (d) HOS indicators; and (e) combined PSW and HOS models. Sleep and work histories were collected from 107 truck accidents (male drivers, aged 23–66 y), of which 62 had a probable cause of fatigue. The a priori model correctly classified 65%, and the optimized model (6.5 h in the prior 24 h and 8 h in the prior 48 h) nearly 71% of accidents. A simplified model of 6.5 h continuous sleep in the prior 24 h correctly classified nearly 75%. HOS indicators correctly classified <60% and combined models, approximately 73%. PSW or combined PSW/HOS approaches may more effectively manage fatigue than current HOS paradigms alone. Sleep duration, recency and continuity are of primary importance.

SN - 00152684 AB - Full-scale fire tests were conducted by the United States Coast Guard to identify the fire extinguishing capabilities and limitations of Aerosol Extinguishing Systems (AES) in shipboard machinery space applications. A total of 18 tests were conducted in this evaluation utilizing the equipment from three AES manufacturers (Ansul, FirePro, and Flame Guard). The systems were tested against the current International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) test protocol (MSC/Circ. 1007) for approving AES for machinery space applications. All three systems exhibited good capabilities against Class B fires but had difficulty extinguishing the Class A fires. As a result of these limited capabilities against Class A fires, none of the three systems successfully met the requirements of the IMO test protocol (as currently written). The conditions in the space produced by the discharge of the systems were also quantified during these tests (visibility, temperature, particle densities, and gas concentrations). Based on the results of these tests, a number of modifications to the procedures, instrumentation, and fire scenarios in the test protocol were recommended.

AB - Game-based simulations are an effective and cost-saving method for training. While much is known about using simulations for training technical skills, less is known about their feasibility and effectiveness for training non-technical skills, especially in healthcare. We focus on the cognitive aspects of the non-technical component to patient care, namely shared cognition, and the use of game-based simulations as a novel way for delivering shared cognition training to healthcare workers. We describe how game-based simulations can be made more effective in their support of the acquisition of targeted knowledge, skills, and attitudes, and why it is important to the process of care. We discuss this in the context of teamwork and provide a set of learning principles applicable to the development of game-base training for shared cognition in healthcare teams. Our goal is to support the design, implementation, and evaluation of more efficient and effective learning technologies, with the end goal of improved patient care.

A total of 127 adult crania and cranial sections were analyzed for four types of bone response: osteoblastic, osteoclastic, line of demarcation, and sequestration. In general, no osteoblastic or osteoclastic response was noted during the first week. This response was followed by an increasing prevalence of expression after this time. By the sixth week postfracture both osteoclastic and osteoblastic activity was scored for 100% of the sample. Further, our observations suggest that the line of demarcation may establish the boundary between the living bone and bone not surviving the fracture. Sequestration appears to be a long-term event and was scored as present well past the eighth week of healing. The osseous expression of infection following fracture was also considered.

Also, we have developed an expression of interfacial shear stress between tows for the simulation. The hybrid composites considered in this study contain two different types of fiber tows (glass/epoxy and carbon/epoxy tows) that are intimately mixed in a random pattern throughout the composite. The tow is defined as a fiber/matrix system (an impregnated tow) rather than a bundle of fibers. The properties of the tows used in the analytical model are derived using the rule-of-mixtures from the properties of the constituent materials and their volume fractions. For low levels of carbon fiber reinforcement, the low strain to failure of the carbon fibers can initiate failure and actually have a detrimental effect on strength. Otherwise, the study indicates that there are no synergistic effects of hybridization on the tensile properties, which consequently can be described for the most part using the rule-of-mixtures.

A 1.2 × 50 cm hollow cathode imbedded in a 250 Gauss magnetic field was used to produce a 50 × 60 × 2-cm planar plasma sheet with an electron density ne &simE; 1012cm-3. Such plasmas have applications in microwave beam steering and plasma processing. Time-resolved measurements of the discharge parameters, local electric field, electron density and temperature, optical emissions, and microwave transmission show the effects of neutral gas heating on formation of the plasma. A beam-generated negative glow discharge was formed at low neutral gas density and high beam voltage. At higher gas densities and lower beam voltages, a positive column discharge sustained by avalanche ionization formed in the region near the anode. For pulsed discharges with t > 150 μs, a transition from the positive column to the negative glow mode was observed due to heating of the neutral gas.

T1 - Grease-lubricated wear of aluminum bronze for jackscrew application JO - Wear JF - Wear Y1 - 2003/08/15/ VL - 255 IS - 7-12 M3 - Article SP - 1238 SN - 00431648 AB - The failure of a grease-lubricated jackscrew, following an order-of-magnitude transition in wear rate above that normally experienced in service by aluminum bronze (C95500) threads of the nut sliding against those of the steel (AISI 4140) screw, contributed to a recent accident involving a commercial passenger airliner. With maintenance records of the development of endplay and knowledge of typical loading and sliding profiles jackscrews experienced per flight, a wear rate of ∼10−5 mm3/N m is thought to exist under normal service with traditional grease lubrication. However, in this case, the grease type had recently been switched in the years immediately preceding the accident. Hypotheses put forth for this unexpected transition to a more rapid bronze wear rate have included a lesser lubricating capability of the newly introduced grease relative to that previously employed, or incompatibility between the greases that may have occurred upon mixing during introduction of the new grease. The overall goal of this study, to determine if any difference in relative performance of these greases existed, was pursued by testing primarily by the block-on-ring method, in which aluminum bronze blocks were slid against nitrided and bead-blasted steel rings. Tests of the two greases were conducted at an average oscillatory speed of 0.08 m/s, characteristic of jackscrew thread sliding, under loads of 250, 510, 920 and 1600 N with wear recorded as a function of time to enable characterization of steady-state wear volume. Steady-state wear behaviors were characterized at a wear scar width of 6.35 mm, though those wear rates were generally found to be adopted earlier, for smaller scar widths. Thus, steady-state wear rates were characterized from 5.5 to 55 MPa, covering a wide range of potential jackscrew thread pressures. The wear factors measured in the presence of the original grease were in the (5–8)×10−6 mm3/N m range, with the value increasing towards 20×10−6 mm3/N m under the lowest load. Steady-state wear factors in the presence of the replacement grease were in every instance lower than for the original grease, ranging over (2–5)×10−6 mm3/N m for the same loads. Wear factors in the presence of a 50/50 grease mixture were generally intermediate to those for each of the greases separately. These lower wear factors for the replacement grease were unaffected by potential contaminants such as water, de-icing fluid, or salt-water, whether pre-mixed (5% by volume) into the grease or dripped into the steady-state contact. However, in each of the three repeat tests conducted at 920 N without any grease lubricant, dry sliding caused the wear factor of aluminum bronze to transition to higher values of (40–70)×10−6 mm3/N m. In thrust-washer tests, conducted at 1.5 MPa contact pressure, wear factors were similarly high under dry sliding, to values in excess of 100×10−6 mm3/N m, whereas upon application of either grease or their mixture wear factor became immeasurably small.

AB - Among the staff of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is a small group of aviation human-performance investigators who apply their training and background in psychology and human factors to aviation safety investigations. Although the NTSB has no regulatory or enforcement powers, its work has improved aviation safety through the issuance of safety recommendations that identify needs for procedural and regulatory changes, and highlight opportunities for safety-related technological advances. It describes the nature of the work performed by NTSB aviation human-performance investigators. This article also provides an historical account of some key safety improvements resulting from, in part, the work of the NTSB, and discusses some current challenges to aviation safety that are related to human performance, as identified by the NTSB.

These are the workload associated with the use of predictor displays and the effects of varying predictor reliability. Experiment 1 demonstrated that reliable predictive information supported conflict avoidance maneuvers while reducing mental workload. Experiment 2 examined the effect of erroneous predictive information on the allocation of attention between and dependence upon elements of the display. The results are succinctly presented and the findings provide valuable insight into the costs and benefits that may accompany the use of predictive traffic information displays in aviation. I first comment briefly on some specific aspects of the study including the (a) traffic density, (b) conflict frequency, (c) secondary task, (d) navigation demands, and (e) statistics. I conclude by addressing some general issues.

Ss counted aloud during the trials. Heart rate, speaking frequency, and vocal intensity increased significantly with workload demands. Speaking rate showed a marginal increase. A derived speech measure, which statistically combined information from all other speech measures except shimmer, increased significantly with workload demands and was robust in showing differences for individual Ss.

It is suggested that many accidents that share the characteristics of (1) long periods of inactivity and monitoring of equipment and (2) human errors attributed to inattentiveness or poor judgment are due to fatigue. Specific transportation accidents are discussed, including China Airlines flight 006 in 1985. Ways that sleep researchers can affect relevant public policy are suggested.

Hence, they lack breadth, coordination, and comprehensiveness. Problems lie in the structure of the development process in which federal construction agencies play a major part. Having these agencies do the economic evaluations when development opportunity dwindles tempts them to compromise the accuracy and integrity of the evaluations. The problem is aggravated by intense pressure from local beneficiaries due to biased federal financing and reimbursement policies. Efforts by Congress to correct the situation are partially offset by entrenched agency thinking and practices. Rigorous enforcement of the National Environmental Policy Act and Council on Environmental Quality Interim Guidelines, revision of cost-sharing formulae and financing and reimbursement policies, improved flexibility of agency leadership, recruitment of new talents and ideas to agency ranks, and adjustment of agency orientation are needed for comprehensive planning to achieve social goals.

AB - While noting that air traffic control system errors rarely occur in today's system, it is pointed out that 90% of all system errors that do occur stem from human mistakes in attention, judgment, and communications by controllers. A review of the system characteristics, the changing role of the controller, and selected aircraft accidents suggests areas that warrant research.

AB - Describes a hypothesis-generation method based on the premise that the functioning of the universe and its constituent parts reflects a continuum of interacting 'event sets.' Examples are presented from the author's work as an accident investigator to illustrate the appropriateness of the premise. It is argued that none of the general concepts of 'accident' (i.e., that the accident is a single event, a single chain of events, or a branched chain of events) is as acceptable as the proposed method of hypothesis generation. The application of probabilistic estimates of the frequency of occurrence of these event sets provides an approach for predicting rare phenomena. Time or spatial logic tests, as well as traditional mathematical or other experimental methods, can then be used to validate hypotheses, without recourse to statistical inference.
