This book presents the proceedings of the Joint Conference of the Asian Council on Ergonomics and Design and Southeast Asian Network of Ergonomics Societies (ACED SEANES), held on December 2-4, 2020. By highlighting the latest theories and models, as well as cutting-edge technologies and applications, and by combining findings from a range of disciplines including engineering, design, robotics, healthcare, management, computer science, human biology and behavioral science, it provides researchers and practitioners alike with a comprehensive, timely guide on human factors and ergonomics. It also offers an excellent source of innovative ideas to stimulate future discussions and developments aimed at applying knowledge and techniques to optimize system performance, while at the same time promoting the health, safety and wellbeing of individuals. The proceedings include papers from researchers and practitioners, scientists and physicians, institutional leaders, managers and policy makers that contribute to constructing the Human Factors and Ergonomics approach across a variety of methodologies, domains and productive sectors.
A comprehensive resource, this handbook covers consumer product research, case study, and application. It discusses the unique perspective a human factors approach lends to product design and how this perspective can be critical to success in the market place. Divided into two volumes, the handbook includes introductory and summary chapters on case study design, design methods and process, error and hazards, evaluation methods, focus groups, and more. It discusses white goods, entertainment systems, personnel audio devices, mobile phones, gardening products, computer systems, and leisure goods.
Every day we interact with thousands of consumer products. We not only expect them to perform their functions safely, reliably, and efficiently, but also to do it so seamlessly that we don't even think about it. However, with the many factors involved in consumer product design, from the application of human factors and ergonomics principles to red

This book reports on cutting-edge findings and developments in physical, social and occupational ergonomics. It covers a broad spectrum of studies and evaluation procedures concerning physical and mental workload, work posture and ergonomic risk. Further, it reports on significant advances in the design of services and systems, including those addressing special populations, for purposes such as health, safety and education, and discusses solutions for a better and safer integration of humans, automated systems and digital technologies. The book also analyzes the impact of culture on people’s cognition and behavior, providing readers with timely insights into theories on cross-cultural dec...

Model proses pengambilan keputusan penerbangan dapat dibedakan dalam dua komponen, yakni penilaian situasi dan pemilihan tindakan. Dalam hal ini, penilaian terhadap situasi dan pemilihan tindakan dipengaruhi bukan saja oleh aspek kognitif, melainkan juga afektif. Dijelaskan bahwa kekhawatiran, ketakutan, kecemasan kadang memiliki pengaruh yang lebih kuat terhadap tingkahlaku mengambil risiko daripada terhadap evaluasi pemikiran logis atas risiko dan keuntungan. Demikian juga dengan sikap terhadap manajemen kokpit dan hazardous attitudes, hasil-hasil penelitian yang telah diuraikan di muka menunjukkan bahwa sikap-sikap itu selain berpengaruh terhadap persepsi mengenai risiko, juga berpengaruh...
Dalam buku ini akan dikemukakan subbab sebagai berikut: (1) tinjauan teoretis mengenai pengambilan keputusan pilot, khususnya dalam menghadapi situasi dan kondisi non-normal dalam operasi penerbangan; (2) tinjauan teoretis mengenai sikap dan perilaku pilot, khususnya menghadapi permasalahan hubungan antar awak pesawat dalam konteks crew resource management dan manifestasi hazardous attitudes dalam operasi penerbangan; (3) tinjauan teoretis mengenai persepsi mengenai risiko secara umum, khususnya menghadapi situasi dan kondisi yang berpotensi menimbulkan kerugian atau mengancam keselamatan individu
