Effective hazard recognition and decision-making are crucial factors in ensuring workplace safety in the construction industry. Workers' cognition closely relates to that hazard-handling behavior. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a neurotechique tool that can evaluate the concentration vibration of oxygenated hemoglobin and deoxygenated hemoglobin [] to reflect the cognition process. It is essential to monitor workers' brain activity by fNIRS to analyze their cognitive status and reveal the mechanism in hazard recognition and decision-making process, providing guidance for capability evaluation and management enhancement. This review offers a systematic assessment of fNIRS, encompassing the basic theory, experiment analysis, data analysis, and discussion. A literature search and content analysis are conducted to identify the application of fNIRS in construction safety research, the limitations of selected studies, and the prospects of fNIRS in future research. This article serves as a guide for researchers keen on harnessing fNIRS to bolster construction safety standards and forwards insightful recommendations for subsequent studies.
有效的危险识别和决策是确保建筑行业工作场所安全的关键因素。工人的认知与危险处理行为密切相关。功能近红外光谱(fNIRS)是一种神经技术工具,可评估氧合血红蛋白和去氧血红蛋白的浓度振动[],以反映认知过程。通过 fNIRS 监测工人的大脑活动以分析他们的认知状态并揭示危险识别和决策过程中的机制至关重要,为能力评估和管理增强提供指导。本综述系统评估了 fNIRS,包括基本理论、实验分析、数据分析和讨论。通过文献检索和内容分析,确定了 fNIRS 在建筑安全研究中的应用、选定研究的局限性以及 fNIRS 在未来研究中的前景。本文为热衷于利用 fNIRS 提高建筑安全标准的研究人员提供了指导,并为后续研究提出了有见地的建议。
