Popis: Dependence assessment refers to a method for adjusting the failure probability for the following action by considering the impact of the preceding action in human reliability analysis (HRA). This paper introduces a method for dependence assessment using performance shaping factors (PSFs), which is a different approach compared to existing dependency methods based on the Technique for Human Error-Rate Prediction (THERP). To be specific, the method presented here focuses on PSFs affecting multiple human actions and suggests how to quantify dependencies between human actions based on mathematical models and if-then logic for the PSFs. In this paper, the fundamental approach is introduced with a comparison to existing dependency methods. This paper also describes how we have developed the method.
