“…This research develops an agent-based modeling approach to understand the sociocognitive process of construction workers' unsafe behavior. Well-established theories (e.g., cognitive psychology [35] and social learning [82]), model validation test (e.g., [39,60,72]), and related research on managers, foreman, and coworkers (e.g., [23,24,41]) are used during the process. The model was established using MATLAB R2015b software (The MathWorks, Natick, MA, USA), relevant empirical data were used as initial values, and the validation of the model was tested.…”
