Synopsis:
Description: Offering a somewhat more psychological perspective than other human factors books on the market, this text describes the capabilities and limitations of the human operator—both physical and mental—and how these should be used to guide the design of systems with which people interact. General principles of human-system interaction and design are presented, along with specific examples of successful and unsuccessful interactions. It links theories of human performance that underlie the principles with real-world examples, without a heavy engineering-oriented perspective. Contents: Preface. Chapter 1: Introduction to Human Factors. Chapter 2: Research Methods. Chapter 3: Design and Evaluation Methods. Chapter 4: Visual Sensory Systems. Chapter 5: Auditory, Tactile, and Vestibular System. Chapter 6: Cognition. Chapter 7: Decision Making. Chapter 8: Displays. Chapter 9: Control. Chapter 10: Engineering Anthropometry and Work Space Design. Chapter 11: Biomechanics of Work. Chapter 12: Work Physiology. Chapter 13: Stress and Workload.
