Abstract:
The authors present concept of occupational reliability of an operating human. The concept is based on systemic approach to analysis of erroneous acts as results of stochasticity of inner human traits and outer interferences. The authors justify universal, systemic criterion to analyze reliability of occupational activities (potential unreliability of acts). The criterion helped to solve practical problems of quantitative evaluation and forecast of outer influence on occupational reliability of a pilot. The criterion is adequate for analysis of "risk-profit" correlation to optimize material expenses among the components of "human-machine" system being under elaboration, preparation and in use.

Range Rule of Thumb to Interpret Standard Deviation
For instance, the range rule of thumb can be used to find the tallest and the shortest student in a class, given the mean student height and standard deviation. If the mean student height is 1.6 m and the standard deviation, s is 0.05 m, the height of...
Unusual Results
According to the range rule of thumb, any value above or below two standard deviations, 2σ from the mean, μ is considered unusual.
Maximum unusual value = μ + 2σ
