Task complexity, and operators’ capabilities as predictor of human error: Modeling framework and an example of application

The model to characterize and predict human error presented in this paper is linked conceptually to the model introduced by Rasch (1980), where the probability of a specified outcome is modelled as a logistic function of the difference between the person capacity and item difficulty.
