What is the primary focus of performance and limitation in human factors?
Physical workload
Cognitive capacity
Both physical and cognitive capacity
Team communication
Which human sense is primarily involved in performance limitations?
Hearing
Sight (Eyes)
Touch
Smell
Cognitive load refers to:
Excessive teamwork stress
Memory processing demand
Poor environmental conditions
Software limitations
Fatigue affects performance in which way?
Increases speed of reaction
Enhances long-term memory
Slows reaction and reduces accuracy
Increases decision-making quality
Limitation of human short-term memory is:
1-2 items
3-5 items
7-9 items
Unlimited
Information processing primarily involves:
Team coordination
Input, processing, and output
Hardware limitations
Emotional behavior
Short-term memory has a duration of approximately:
1-10 seconds
15-30 seconds
1-5 minutes
Over an hour
Long-term memory stores information for:
Short durations only
Indefinite periods
Up to 1 day
Immediate recall tasks
"Eyes" are essential for which stage of information processing?
Input
Processing
Output
Feedback
What helps transfer information from short-term to long-term memory?
Risk shift
Rehearsal and association
Immediate attention shift
Physical activity
What does "Risk Shift" refer to in team working?
Individual work focus
Transfer of risk to one member
Group taking greater risks collectively
Avoiding all risks
Effective team working requires:
Avoidance of team communication
Balanced roles and communication
Focus only on individual tasks
Elimination of all risks
What is the benefit of teamwork in a working environment?
Increased individual workload
Improved problem-solving
Reduced efficiency
Miscommunication
"Social environment" is critical for:
Avoiding interactions
Facilitating collaboration
Task isolation
Limiting creativity
Risk shift occurs because:
Teams lack trust
Teams tend to overestimate capabilities
Risk is distributed evenly
Tasks are straightforward
A positive working environment enhances:
Stress levels
Productivity and satisfaction
Task avoidance
Role confusion
Poor social environments cause:
Increased teamwork success
Conflict and reduced morale
Enhanced creativity
Immediate task resolution
Noise is an example of:
Team coordination
Environmental stressor
Positive feedback
Hardware limitation
Working environment directly affects:
Software performance
Human efficiency and safety
Risk shift only
Short-term tasks only
Optimal working environments include:
Harsh lighting
Good ergonomics and lighting
Lack of communication
Unstable furniture
Which is the first (base) level of Maslow's hierarchy of needs?
Safety
Physiological needs
Social needs
Self-actualization
"Self-actualization" refers to:
Achieving full potential
Safety needs
Basic physiological needs
Risk shift
Maslow’s hierarchy consists of how many levels?
3
4
5
6
Social belonging is which level of Maslow's hierarchy?
First
Second
Third
Fifth
What level addresses job security and stability?
Self-actualization
Social belonging
Safety needs
Physiological needs
The Swiss Cheese Model describes:
Performance hierarchy
Risk management and accident causation
Human physiological limitations
Team roles
Each "slice" in the Swiss Cheese Model represents:
A task completed
A safety barrier
An environmental stressor
A software issue
In the model, "holes" represent:
Barriers to success
Latent weaknesses and errors
Hardware malfunctions
Communication errors
Swiss Cheese Model is primarily used in:
Accident prevention
Team communication
Memory processing
Software design
What happens when all the "holes" align?
No impact
System failure or accident occurs
Team performance increases
Environment improves
Liveware in human factors refers to:
Human beings in the system
Software programs
Environmental stressors
Technological hardware
What complements liveware in a system?
Only software
Hardware and software
Environment only
Memory processes
Software refers to:
Human systems
Intangible programs
Physical equipment
Risk barriers
Which factor affects liveware the most?
Swiss Cheese Model

Team isolation
Physical inactivity
Hardware in liveware-environment interaction refers to:
Physical systems and tools
Memory systems
Team roles
Software codes
Poor environments impact:
Hardware performance only
Human efficiency and comfort
Only physical systems
None of the above
Environmental stressors include:
Good ergonomics
Noise, lighting, and temperature
Team collaboration
Long-term memory
A key aspect of creating a good environment is:
Risk shift
Poor lighting conditions
Providing proper ergonomics and tools
Eliminating liveware
Human limitations can be improved in good environments through:
Noise isolation and proper lighting
Software reinstallation
Risk shift avoidance
Team exclusion
What type of interaction enhances team performance in environments?
Poor communication
Liveware and hardware interaction
Eliminating software
Cognitive overload Performance and Limitation
