Effectiveness Analysis of Coal Mine Safety Training Based on Hybrid Kirkpatrick-AHP-Extension Model
Evaluating the effectiveness of coal mine safety training is challenged by the com-plexity of training indicators,the limitations of traditional assessment methods,the subjective nature of evaluation processes,and the difficulty in quantifying outcomes.It is of great impor-tance to identify a suitable model for effective analysis.This study develops an evaluation frame-work based on Kirkpatrick's theory,comprising 4 primary and 20 secondary indicators.The framework incorporates the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)and the Matter Element Exten-sion method to calculate weights,correlations,and hierarchical superiority among indicators.This results in a hybrid Kirkpatrick-AHP-Matter Element Extension model for assessing the ef-fectiveness of coal mine safety training.The model was empirically validated through its applica-tion in multiple safety training sessions across coal mines in Shanxi Province.The findings dem-onstrate that the hybrid model effectively minimizes subjective bias in weight determination,quantifies evaluation outcomes,and accurately measures the achievement levels of various train-ing benchmarks.This validation confirms the model's effectiveness,scientific rigor,and preci-sion,providing a novel approach to evaluating the effectiveness of safety training programs.
