Notă biografică
Nancy J. Stone received her Ph.D. in experimental psychology from Texas Tech University, USA. She created and taught the undergraduate Human Factors course at Creighton University. Nancy is a Fellow of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, and currently serves on the Executive Council. She served as the Educational Technical Group (ETG) Program Chair and the ETG Chair. She also served on and then became Chair of the Education and Training Committee of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society. Her involvement in human factors education led to her invited article on human factors education in the Special 50th Anniversary issue of Human Factors. Her research is in the areas of environmental design, teamwork, and student learning.
Alex Chaparro received his Ph.D. in experimental psychology from Texas Tech University, USA, and completed a postdoc at Harvard University in the departments of Psychology and Applied Sciences. He is a Professor in the Department of Human Factors and Behavioral Neurobiology at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. He has taught human factors courses at the undergraduate and graduate level and is a member of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society. His research concerns the effects of distraction and aging on driving performance.
Joseph “Joe” R. Keebler received his PhD in Applied/Experimental Human Factors Psychology from the University of Central Florida, USA. Joe currently serves as an Associate Professor of Human Factors at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. Joe’s work is aimed at experimental and applied research, with a specific focus on training and teamwork in military, medical, and consumer domains. He has partnered with multiple agencies and institutions in his career, with most projects aimed at the implementation of human factors in complex, high-risk systems, to increase safety and human performance. This work includes over 100 publications, book chapters, proceedings papers, and presentations.
Barbara S. Chaparro has a PhD in Experimental Psychology from Texas Tech University, USA. She is a Professor in the Human Factors and Behavioral Neurobiology Department and Head of Research in User eXperience (RUX) Lab at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Her research interests include the study of factors that influence the user experience (UX) of products and systems, the investigation of usability assessment methods, and the efficacy of augmented/mixed reality devices and applications.
Daniel S. McConnell has a Ph.D. in Sensory Psychology from Indiana University Bloomington, USA, and completed a postdoc at the Institute for Research in Cognitive Science at the University of Pennsylvania. He is currently a Senior Lecturer in Psychology and Co-Director of the Technology and Aging Laboratory at the University of Central Florida. His research focuses on the visual control of reaching, the analysis of human movement kinematics, and human motor performance in the context of technology use.

Recenzii
"With many examples of the application of psychology to everyday life, this book will appeal to psychology students interested in a career in Human Factors."
— Robert S. Bridger, www.rsbridger.com
"Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for writing this book! The up-to-date examples and accessible writing style are exactly what our field has needed for so long to introduce students to the wonderful world of Human Factors and Ergonomics! This book makes me excited to teach Introductory HFE again. The end of chapter exercises are perfect for in-class activities or homework. I cannot wait to start using this book!"
— Beth Blickensderfer, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, USA
"The authors do a great job of introducing students to human factors through carefully selecting and well organized information. In accordance with their goal, I believe the content is easily accessible for students and clearly demonstrates its relevance to application."
— Robert W. Lion, Idaho State University, USA
"The strengths are the vignettes, the applied examples, and the sets of exercises, which will engage the reader and make human factors ‘come alive’. This is very important given the nature of the discipline of human factors."
— Jan Noyes, University of Bristol, UK
"This book provides theoretical and practical implications of applying psychology to design with an excellent set of topics and hence examples.
The research methods chapter is a must read for those who are conducting Human Factors research either in academia or industry.
The wide range of topics covered in this book can be applied to heterogeneous research domains and industries including Computing, Psychology, Cyber Security, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Aerospace and Defense. A must read for Human Factors researchers and practitioners."
