There are situations in an operating environment when human emotions may be active or when the context suggests one or more alternative considerations are available. In this situation, there is a degree of uncertainty present and decisions become contingent on choices.
As a human factors professional, when designing systems or program parameters and decision trees, how do you approach this situation so that minimum error is likely and other system components are not affected adversely?
Among these effects is the concern for system boundaries where one decision influences other system functions. Likewise, an objective is to increase system reliability where possible. Take a position on this issue and explain your view. Provide at least one scholarly source to support your position. You do not need to respond to your peers in this discussion.
