Dual processing mechanism of miners'unsafe behavior
The study of miners'unsafe behavior is a classic problem in the field of safety management.The existing literature mostly explains the mechanism of unsafe behavior from the perspective of human factors engineering and behavioral economics,but there are few literature about the decision-making mechanism of miners'unsafe behavior acted without careful consideration.So,we constructed a dual processing mechanism explanation model of miners'unsafe behavior based on the dual system theory,amd used questionnaire survey method to mobilize miners to make threat assessment on 25 kinds of unsafe behaviors in the state of system 2,that is,thoughtful.The results showed that for all unsafe behaviors,the proportion of respondents who judged such behaviors as"frequent occurrence"is much higher than the proportion of people who made"low threat assessment",indicating that miners did use the decision-making mechanism of system 1,that is,not thoughtful,to implement unsafe behaviors in the production process.On this basis,we analyzed the influencing factors of miners'behavior decision-making using system 1,the results showed that,past behavior,time pressure,processing ability,cognitive motivation,involvement and risk perception are the main factors affecting behavior processing mechanism.Accordingly,the control strategies for unsafe behaviors under the state of system 1 were proposed.
