• Training for Safety in Emergencies Inoculating for Underground Coal Mine Emergencies
  11/1/2011 - Peer reviewed journal articles
  Emergency training for miners can use inoculation theory, which explains how people can resist persuasion attempts by preparing counterarguments in advance. The theory may be used to prepare workers to react quickly by preparing responses in advance.
• Nonverbal Communication for Mine Emergencies
  11/1/2011 - Reports of Investigations, Training materials
  Nonverbal Communication for Mine Emergencies is a training program that teaches miners a series of nonverbal hand signals to use in the event of an emergency. These hand signals can be used by miners if they are unable to communicate verbally.
