Lozada-Larson, Susana R. and Laughery, Kenneth R. (1987): Do Identical Circumstances Preceed Minor and Major Injuries?. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 200-204.

“The identical causation hypothesis contends that identical causes or circumstances precede minor and major injuries in accidents. Tests of the identical causation hypothesis were carried out by examining frequencies of prior activities, accident events and injury events across minor and major injuries, including a breakdown by job family. Also, combinations of accident variables (scenarios) for minor and major injuries were examined. For the individual accident variables, the data clearly support a similar causation hypothesis. However, for the combinations of accident variables, differences were discerned between minor and major injuries. Overall, the present test of the identical causation hypothesis suggests that similar preceding circumstances may underlie both minor and major injuries.”
