Advances in Cognitive Ergonomics

This volume focuses on cognitive ergonomics, that area of ergonomics which is concerned with mental processes or "brain work" such as perception, memory, reasoning, and motor response, as they affect interactions among humans and other elements of a system. The relevant topics include mental workload, decision-making, skilled performance, human-computer interaction, human reliability, work stress and training as these many relate to human-system design. The book covers the latest advances in cognitive ergonomics and areas where cognitive ergonomics intersects with other disciplines.
