NUREG-0711 — Human Factors Engineering Program Review Model

NRC review model for HFE programmes across 12 elements from planning through implementation. Required for Tier 2+ AI advisory under graded-autonomy-tiers.

Key Programme Elements

• Operating experience review, functional requirements analysis, task analysis
• HSI design following nureg-0700 guidelines
• Human factors V&V — testing that design supports human performance

AI Advisory Requirements

The HFE programme must address:

• automation-bias: How does AI display design mitigate over-reliance?
• trust-calibration: Do displays support appropriate trust?
• AI failure mode training: Operators must recognise hallucination, sycophancy, and output-vacuity
• Workload impact: Does AI reduce or increase operator cognitive-load?
• Advisory vs authoritative: Unambiguous visual distinction between AI output and qualified instruments (see hsi-architecture)
