THE DESIGN OF AN INVESTIGATION PROCEDURE
本文指出人因工程应用不广的原因在于应用模型不当和研究者偏重实验室而非实际问题,并讨论了在组织中开展问题导向研究的限制,最后以事故调查程序的设计为例说明应用人因工程。
This paper stresses the fact that ergonomics is not widely practised partly because the model of application is inappropriate and partly because ergonomists tend to be laboratory- rather than problem-centred. Some of the constraints associated with problem-centred research in organisations are discussed, and a particular problem of applied ergonomics, as it relates to the design of accident investigation procedures, is described.
