 Issues in benchmarking human reliability analysis methods: A literature reviewRonald L. Boring, Stacey M.L. Hendrickson, John A. Forester, Tuan Q. Tran and Erasmia Lois Reliability Engineering and System Safety, 2010, vol. 95, issue 6, 591-605 Abstract: There is a diversity of human reliability analysis (HRA) methods available for use in assessing human performance within probabilistic risk assessments (PRA). Due to the significant differences in the methods, including the scope, approach, and underlying models, there is a need for an empirical comparison investigating the validity and reliability of the methods. To accomplish this empirical comparison, a benchmarking study comparing and evaluating HRA methods in assessing operator performance in simulator experiments is currently underway. In order to account for as many effects as possible in the construction of this benchmarking study, a literature review was conducted, reviewing past benchmarking studies in the areas of psychology and risk assessment. A number of lessons learned through these studies is presented in order to aid in the design of future HRA benchmarking endeavors.
