Technological advances, lower cost, and greater availability of extended reality (XR) have led to more widespread applications and uptake of these technologies. Simulated environments can be used to study, measure, and influence human behavior in a variety of situations, and there are many examples of application in education, training, and ...

Human factors and ergonomics (HF/E) explore the ways in which human beings interact with the technologies they create. Traditionally, HF/E has been concerned with improving efficiency and safety in industrial and manufacturing production. Across the world, these traditional ergonomic concerns with physical work are still very much in evidence. However,

Human factors and ergonomics in the planning of production
International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, 2000The integration of ergonomics in design and planing has always been an ambition within ergonomics, but experience show that it is an ideal difficult to bring into practice. Presently tools, methods and procedures are asked for. This paper argues - by presenting an overview of existing recommendations - that this is not actually what presently is needed

The human factor and ergonomics in Patient Safety
Medicina Intensiva (English Edition)The human condition is linked to error in any activity that is performed, and the healthcare world is no exception. The origin of human error does not lie within the perversity of human nature, instead, it has its origins in latent failures in the healthcare environment and is a consequence of the processes and procedures applied.
