Zusammenfassung:En route operational errors that occurred during 1993 were analyzed to determine if controllers who were aware that an error was developing differed from unaware controllers in the type and severity of errors they made. Neither the personnel nor the air traffic situation distinguished "aware" from "unaware" controllers. However, unaware controllers were more likely to commit certain technical and cognitive mistakes. In addition to differing in the types of mistakes they made, unaware controllers were involved in more severe operational errors. This difference in severity was eliminated, however, when the groups were equated on the frequency with which technical and cognitive errors were made.
