Standardized plant analysis risk human reliability

SPAR-H Standardized plant analysis risk human reliability analysis It is useful for the cases where detailed assessments are not called for, as it does not identify or model HFEs. It is possible to quantify HEPs for pre-initiator and post-initiator HFEs. It was initially used for nuclear application, but now has wider applications [12]. 

Second generation methods which were first applied in 1990, are based on a cognitive model that is more appropriate to explain human behavior. The focus shifted to the cognitive aspects of humans, the causes of errors rather than their frequency, the study of the interaction of the factors that increase the probability of error, and the interdependencies of the PSF (Fehce Petrillo, 2011). The most representative tools are Standardized Plant Analysis Risk-Human reliability analysis method (SPAR-H), German et al. (2005) A Technique for Human Error ANAlysis (ATHEANA), NUREG-1624 (2000) as well as Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM), Hollnagel (1998).
