Abstract:
Robots are frequently used in environments that are unreachable by or are unsafe for human beings.

Abstract:
It is proposed that trust is a critical element in the interactive relations between humans and the automated and robotic technology they create.

Abstract:
Our study explores the moral bases of human factors/ergonomics (HF/E). Since their inception, these co-evolving facets of the human enterprise have espoused a dedication to the quality of life.

Abstract:
Objective: This study examined how transitions in task demand during a driving and navigation task manifested themselves as delayed adaptation in driver mental workload.

Abstract:
Intelligent technologies such as performance support systems and decision aids represent a key aspect of modern sociotechnical systems. when new tools are introduced into the workplace, they represent hypothesis about how cognitive work is expected to change.

Abstract:
I have little doubt that most of the commentaries on Bartlett’s (1962) predictions will be at the very least complementary if not manifestly honorific. And to a large extent these assessments will be appropriate.

Abstract:
Experiments investigating whether or not cognitive workload affects duration judgments of 3 sec or longer were meta-analyzed.

Abstract:
The central premise of the present paper is that the spectacular failure to create a fully functional artificial intelligence results from a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of time in relation to living systems.
