Findings are presented from an interview study of five crew members who survived helicopter crash. Four of the Five Surviving men had received simulated helicopter accident training prior to the Crash. One untrained crew member died. The four previously trained survivors claimed that the training appeared to be provision of confidence and thought control. The author discusses these as the development of a positive response‐outcome expectancy.
