Overview: This paper discusses progress in the development of an incident investigation system to improve maritime safety management. The authors designed a questionnaire about marine incidents and the conditions of navigators' Performance Shaping Factors (PSF) in those incidents. The results revealed important dangerous relationships between unsafe acts and PSF, through analysis by a contingency table and stratification of the contingency table by a third factor, step by step according to cause and effect. The results showed that an unsafe delay in the recognition of danger was strongly affected by 5 factors directly, 13 factors indirectly, and some background factors.
