Monitoring Dangers in An Uncertain World: A Study of Information-Processing and Organizational Learning -- ROW Planning Grant

这项研究规划补助金提案将先前对空中交通部门安全监测系统的研究扩展到其他部门。规划补助金的主要目的是进行初步研究，以确定哪些监测系统将作为计划研究项目的一部分进行深入研究。这项研究将检查组织收集事故信息和从事故中学习的方式。在计划期间，首席研究员将审查档案资料并进行访谈。研究地点包括监测医疗器械、生产核能和协调电话业务的系统。本研究将有助于研究组织中的资讯获取与处理，以及组织学习的分析。

This proposal for a Research Planning Grant expands previous research on safety-monitoring systems in the air traffic sector to other sectors. The main purpose of the planning grant is to conduct preliminary research to determine which monitoring systems will be studied in depth as part of the planned research project. The research will examine the ways organizations collect information about and learn from near accidents. During the planning period, the principal investigator will examine archival data and conduct interviews. Research sites include systems for monitoring medical instruments, the production of nuclear energy, and the coordination of telephone operations. The proposed research will contribute to the study of information acquisition and processing in organizations, as well as to analysis of organizational learning.
