Methodological issues in systems Human Factors and Ergonomics: Perspectives on the research–practice gap, reliability and validity, and prediction

Human Factors and Ergonomics in Manufacturing & Service Industries, 2020
The changing nature of work and society, and a proliferation of complex global challenges, is increasing the need for systems Human Factors and Ergonomics (HFE). The discipline is well equipped to respond, but there remain a number of longstanding issues

Synchronization-based fusion of EEG and eye blink signals for enhanced decoding accuracy

Scientific Reports
Decoding locomotor tasks is crucial in cognitive neuroscience for understanding brain responses to physical tasks. Traditional methods like EEG offer brain activity insights but may require additional modalities for enhanced interpretative precision and ...

Current and ceased users of sit stand workstations: a qualitative evaluation of ergonomics, safety and health factors within a workplace setting

BMC Public Health, 2018
Background Many workplaces have implemented sit-stand workstations (SSW), which enable a worker to transition between sitting and standing as they perform their work activities.

Spatiotemporal Processing of Bimodal Odor Lateralization in the Brain Using Electroencephalography Microstates and Source Localization

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
The neuronal cascade related to the perception of either purely olfactory or trigeminal airborne chemicals has been investigated using electroencephalography (EEG) microstate analyses and source localization.

Assessment of Drivers’ Mental Workload by Multimodal Measures during Auditory-Based Dual-Task Driving Scenarios

Sensors
Assessing drivers’ mental workload is crucial for reducing road accidents. This study examined drivers’ mental workload in a simulated auditory-based dual-task driving scenario, with driving tasks as the main task, and auditory-based N-back tasks as the ...

Cognitive Habitat, Strategy Ecosystem: A Predictive Model of Emergence for Cognitive and Computer Science

IEEE Access, 2021
Cognitive research has found people are sometimes adept and sometimes inept at handling complexity. Complexity is a key concept in much of cognitive science, yet the field has scarcely incorporated any of the work in complexity theory.

Human factors and ergonomics in the emergency department

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 2002
Although health care rapidly adopts technologic advances from other fields, it has been slow to incorporate well-established principles from human factors engineering into the health care workplace. This article demonstrates some of those principles by analyzing an all too routine clinical event from a human factors point of view.

Human factors and ergonomics systems-based tools for understanding and addressing global problems of the twenty-first century

Ergonomics, 2019
Sustainability is a systems problem with humans as integral elements of the system. However, sustainability problems usually have a broader scope than socio-technical systems and therefore, require additional considerations.

What Does the n-Back Task Measure as We Get Older? Relations Between Working-Memory Measures and Other Cognitive Functions Across the Lifespan

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
Working memory (WM) declines with increasing age. The WM capacity is often measured by means of the computerized version of the n-back task. Although the n-back task is widely used in aging research, little is known about its construct validity and ...
