Human Factors Engineering
Human factors engineering is all about designing systems that make it
easy for humans to operate properly and difficult for them to make errors.
Human factors engineers bring to the systems performance engineering team a focus on
user-centered design
- the idea that technology should be designed to meet human capabilities, limitations, and preferences, rather than forcing humans to adapt to the technology. They also bring methodologies and techniques from behavioral, social, and cognitive sciences that provide the technical basis for effective human performance engineering.
