Abstract
Nuclear power plant operators and trainers were interviewed to examine human factors considerations associated with control room operation. One part of this review dealt with communications. Over eighty percent of the interview sample reported problems and frustrations with existing communication systems. The nature of the problems uncovered and future research needs are the subjects of this paper.
