Book chapter on situation awareness applied in maritime settings

In 2013, our research group "Operational psychology research group" and associated members collaborated on an edited book called "Motivating for safety". The book was intended for practitioners in the industry, in particular captains and safety officers in the maritime field. The book covered topics such as safety climate, sleep deprivation, shared mental models, situation awareness, leadership, psychological capital and hardiness. Each topic is illustrated with cases, exercises and training questions. My chapter on situation awareness is linked below.
