  • Title: Pilot judgment: an operational viewpoint.
    Author: Stone RB, Babcock GL, Edmunds WW.
    Journal: Aviat Space Environ Med; 1985 Feb; 56(2):149-52. PubMed ID: 3985892.
    Abstract:
    The process of decision making is poorly understood in our aviation environment. Accidents may demonstrate instances where incorrect decisions were made, but current investigative techniques do not necessarily give a clear understanding of why such decisions were made. The elements of the decision-making process need to be better understood so proper attention may be given to pilot training and developing operational procedures . A study of the Aviation Safety Reporting System data base was conducted to gain a better understanding of the actual operational impact of decision making.
