Health care providers may lack adequate training on the specific needs and challenges faced by sexual and gender minorities.  This can perpetuate prejudice and discrimination, resulting in poor quality of care.  Access to proper training about the needs and challenges faced by the LGBTQIAP+ community is essential for health care providers.  They can use this education to deliver more comprehensive, scientific, and humane care. To develop this training, we can consider using human-centered design (HCD).  Using HCD encourages the engagement of multiple stakeholder groups (including youth, families, and providers) in our search for better ways to serve the growing number of people who identify as LGBTQIAP+.  HCD methods (such as the creative matrix and importance-difficulty matrix) can be used to brainstorm a mix of traditional and innovative strategies.  These strategies can then be prioritized based on their impact and ability to be successfully executed.  To test the broad concepts of these ideas and develop them further, we can use low-fidelity prototypes with various people and environments.  This testing can help us develop high-fidelity prototypes that are ready for more involved clinical trials, and eventual use in clinical practice.  By taking an HCD approach, we can create meaningful, acceptable, and novel interventions to address the multilevel factors that impact health care for the LGBTQIAP+ community.  People who identify as LGBTQIAP+ have a higher risk of mental and physical health challenges as compared to the general population.

The idea of SET is that animals have an internal clock and particular memory and decision-making processes, which explains why their behavior can be temporally controlled using fixed-interval reinforcement. The scalar part of SET comes from how animals compare the current time (held in their working memory) to the expected time (held in their reference memory). When the ratio is small enough, the animal performs the behavior. When the ratio is big enough, the animal stops doing the behavior. This ratio allows for the observation that animal timing accuracy is relative to the size of the interval being timed.  Although Gibbon’s theory was intended to apply only to animals, John Wearden claimed that SET could also be applied to humans. However, human behavior has much more variability than animal behavior does, mostly due to our attentional allocation, so this application is somewhat debated. While SET was one of the first models of timing, it is not the only one: there are many alternative models of timing, some based on SET and some completely different. When using SET, it is important to keep in mind that it might not work for all durations, and some psychologists argue that it is inconsistent when it comes to explaining the location of temporal indifference point in temporal bisection procedure.  Scalar Expectancy Theory, or SET, is an important model of animal timing behavior credited to John Gibbon in the late 1900s.

Inclusivity can create not just a welcoming environment for the community, but it can improve the experience for allies as well through setting a groundwork of acceptance of all identities. There is more to inclusivity than turning a company logo into a rainbow flag for the month of June. When creating a product or website that requires a user to sign-up, designers can choose to leave out the option for gender all together. If this information is needed, they can include “non-binary” or “ other” as an option. It is important that a designer incorporates gender-neutral terms throughout the product that doesn’t exclude. Representation matters, and that can be accomplished in many ways, such as allowing users to express themselves through icons and avatars, and designers can use this an opportunity to incorporate gender-neutral forms of expression. Sometimes, representation can come in the form of displaying images that include the LGBTQIAP+ community, or even designing marketing campaigns that are aimed towards the community.  When it comes to designing a product, design researchers can open up studies to specifically include members of the LGBTQIAP+ community, so that they are represented in the final product.  Finally, designers can create a product that protects the privacy of its LGBTQIAP+ users. Some members of the community may not want their identity or data shared elsewhere. It is a designers’ duty to create a product that keeps its users safe from unwanted sharing of sensitive data, and informs them of what is shared.

While these efforts have not gone unnoticed, the lack of diversity, specifically the inclusion of the LGBTQIA+ community, persists.  In our research, we found a limited availability of resources for marginalized community members entering the field, as well as limited consideration of queer users in design. Few studies have examined the inclusion of this marginalized community in Human Factors.  One example of studies utilizing inclusionary research methods is a 2017 study examining the impact of technology on relationship therapy effectiveness. Another study, published in January 2022, highlighted the use of VR-based therapy to improve mental health outcomes.  While there are affinity groups and clubs within organizations, the lack of research on inclusion within the field suggests considerations for queer users are likely limited, as well.  This highlights a greater need for the inclusion of LGBTQIA+ members in all areas of research and design, who can advocate for queer users. Participants in a 2019 study examining diversity at the HFES Annual Meeting noted the important role advocacy plays in increasing diversity and inclusion.  Given this information, it is clear that, in order to have more inclusive designs for queer users, our profession must ensure we support advocacy and allyship by providing considerations and resources for these users within our own fields.

Traditional ergonomic studies rely predominantly on psychological explanations to address human factors issues such as: work performance, operational safety, and workplace-related risks . Neuroergonomics, in contrast, addresses the biological substrates of ergonomic concerns, with an emphasis on the role of the human nervous system. The goal of combining neuroscience with Human Factors (and Ergonomics) is to use the discoveries of the human brain and physiological functioning both to inform the design of technologies in the workplace and home, and to provide new training methods that enhance performance, expand capabilities, and optimize the fit between people and technology. Findings obtained in work-defined settings often inform and challenge our understanding of what work means in terms of neural mechanisms. Research in the neuroergonomics field has become more prevalent with the emergence of noninvasive techniques for monitoring human brain function that can be used to study various aspects of human behavior in relation to technology and work, including mental workload, visual attention, working memory, motor control, human-automation interaction, and adaptive automation.

Research in the neuroergonomics field has become more prevalent with the emergence of noninvasive techniques for monitoring human brain function that can be used to study various aspects of human behavior in relation to technology and work, including mental workload, visual attention, working memory, motor control, human-automation interaction, and adaptive automation.Human Factors Minute (Presented By: Human Factors Cast)Ergonomics and Human Factors Conference 2022 Recap | #EHF2022 | Bonus Episode (Full Audio Version)Ergonomics and Human Factors Conference 2022 Recap | #EHF2022 | Bonus Episode (Full Audio Version)This Full Audio Version has a full audio version of each of the interviews at the end, hence the 90 minute runtime)!

The device works by placing electrodes consisting of small metal discs with thin wires are pasted onto the participant's scalp. The electrodes detect tiny electrical charges that result from the activity in brain cells. The charges are amplified and appear as a graph on a computer screen, or as a recording that may be printed out on paper.  In Human Factors, EEGs are used typically to measure performance with respect to mental fatigue, mental workload, mental effort, visual fatigue, emotion, and stress.Many studies in human factors focus on evaluating an individual’s mental states while operating a vehicle, however there are plenty of other practical applications for using an EEG. Outside of Human Factors, The EEG can be used used to evaluate several types of brain disorders, diagnose other disorders that influence brain activity, determine the overall electrical activity of the brain, and to monitor blood flow in the brain during surgical procedures.

The issue with this is that as automation is becoming increasingly more prevalent within our society humans are having to switch from the active role of operator to the passive role of monitor. Human Factors research has identified many issues with requiring humans to do vigilance tasks as they are highly stressful on individuals because of their substantial demand on information processing resources. One reason for this is individuals need to constantly use working memory to distinguish what a threating detection is compared to a non-threatening detection.  Additionally, many experiments have measured workload during vigilance tasks. The results show that vigilance tasks carry high workload and are cognitively demanding. It is also found that vigilance decrement steadily increases as workload increases over time. Other studies show that there is a reduction in cerebral flow during vigilance tasks which provides physiological evidence that performance capabilities decrease during vigilance tasks.  Research has investigated the high stress that results from vigilance tasks. Data indicates that increases in epinephrine and norepinephrine, as well as self-reports of various experiments showing vigilance tasks cause individuals to disengage from the task and experience distress and worry. Vigilance is the action or state of keeping careful watch for possible danger or difficulties.

Data indicates that increases in epinephrine and norepinephrine, as well as self-reports of various experiments showing vigilance tasks cause individuals to disengage from the task and experience distress and worry.Human Factors Minute (Presented By: Human Factors Cast)E242 - How Top Reviews Help Sway Consumer Decisions (Full Audio Version)E242 - How Top Reviews Help Sway Consumer Decisions (Full Audio Version)This week on the show, we talk about how top reviews sway consumer decision-making.

This emphasizes that we still have much to learn about how we perceive time in the real world and use that perception to interact with our environment.  Recent research tells us that time perception involves a large neural network throughout the brain; there is no specific structure that controls it.  In general, our understanding is that our perception of time is a combination of a variety of factors such as attention, arousal, emotions, and environmental cues.  Time can appear to move faster if we are in a positive state and have a high approach motivation (the desire and drive to do something) or find activities so enjoyable and immersive that time seems to pass by faster than usual (sometimes referred to as a “flow” state) Conversely, focusing our attention on something can also make time seem to move slower. When the possibility of a reward is present, stimuli are perceived as lasting longer than when there is little or no prospective reward. These results seemed to indicate that if a stimulus is associated with a reward, it becomes more salient, grabbing more of our attention and thus distorting how long we perceive it to last.  Time can also seem to move slower if we experience awe (likely from feeling more present and “in the moment”) or fear (possibly so that we have more time to prepare to react to fear-inducing stimuli).  Our experience of time is also influenced by cues from our bodies. Visual input, body movements, and information we receive from our tissues are connected to time perception, leading to what is called the embodied perspective of time perception in humans, which tells us that our brain’s interpretation of signals throughout our body is a crucial element of how we perceive time.  With so many theoretical models for how we perceive time, researchers have started comparing the different models. This emphasizes that we still have much to learn about how we perceive time in the real world and use that perception to interact with our environment.

They offer three types of certification for systems engineers: Associate, Certified, and Expert Systems Engineering Professional certification. The associate (or ASEP) certification is meant for systems engineers just beginning to practice, such as junior systems engineers. Applicants will have “book knowledge” but no significant field experience yet.  For practicing systems engineers with more than 5 years of professional systems engineering experience, there is the certified level or CSEP. Applicants are self-sufficient, capable of carrying out systems engineering tasks in a variety of work situations, and capable of practicing in a broad range of domains including military systems acquisition and development, commercial product engineering, and public infrastructure engineering.  Finally, the expert certification or ESEP is for systems engineering professionals with recognized accomplishments in the field and at least 20 years of systems engineering experience. Applicants should have substantial experience in performing and leading systems engineering, such as program managers or chief systems engineers. Individuals should be experts in some aspects of systems engineering and able to perform adequately in many. This is the person others seek with specific, challenging, technical questions.  To obtain certification, ASEPs and CSEPs must complete a knowledge examination. CSEPs and ESEPs must provide references, with ESEPs completing a phone interview instead of an exam.  INCOSE certifications are valuable at any level and help set you apart from other job applicants by demonstrating your proficiency, dedication to your work, interest in ongoing professional development, and contributions to the systems engineering community.  The International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) is designed to connect systems engineering professionals with professional development opportunities in the interest of developing the global community of systems engineers and systems approaches to problems.

He kept the secret from two separate inquiries because, according to his granddaughter, he saw it as his duty to protect the White Star Line from bankruptcy. He only told his wife the truth.

We measure the illumination and reflectivity of objects to determine their relative contrast, and the resulting visibility. Our eyes handle a huge range of light visibility, in part by using two types of receptors:  rods, which work well under low light conditions, and cones that work best under bright conditions. In low light conditions, such as the outer edges of a headlight or work light beam, brightness contrast is what matters most.   This is because the rods, which detect very low levels of light, only come in one model, whereas cones come in three models.  Having three different types of cones allows us to differentiate colors, and having only one type of rods leaves us in a black and white world.  In the case of safety and forensics, establishing visibility is only the first step.  The follow up question is always, “when was this object noticeable”.   In order for people to recognize and avoid dangerous conditions, they must be see the hazard.

Computerized tools help assist and enable an individual to simulate an evaluate a large number of design configurations with respect to multiple performance measures. Many of the tools available have the capability to model a workstation, but fail to model the interaction a user may have with a given workspace.  By combining the virtual modeling tools with an analysis by the ergonomist, human performance and ergonomic needs can be assessed to design these workstations. The advantage of this method is that many computer tools are defined by metrics (like height, length, depth) and this frees up the analyst to focus on workflow, rather than specific parameters.

Addressing climate change, and sustainability efforts requires us to change our beliefs, assumptions, and thinking about the environment, our economies, and our well being. In order to change these, we must be aware of many common oversights when considering sustainable thinking. Most people look for evidence that confirms existing beliefs and tend to reject contradictory information, resulting in confirmation bias. When considering the future, it's easy to have misplaced confidence that the future will be similar to the past, which will make it difficult to identify mistakes and alter behavior when conditions change. Humans have a tendency to have wishful thinking, and believe that more favorable outcomes are more likely to happen than undesirable ones. Many choose to associate only with people who share their views, which often results in belief polarization, sometimes even to the effect of denying the existance of climate change. By directly addressing our biases and oversights when considering climate change and sustainability, we can begin to reflect on how we, as humans, are thinking about the problem space, and what needs to get done from a more objective perspective.

Modern aircraft designs put high demands on vision as the primary sense for information gathering, but such designs can lead to increased attentional demands that have the potential to decrease situational awareness.  To compensate, sound has become more important for delivering information or to divert a pilot’s attention to an area that needs monitoring. At a very basic level, the ability to hear a signal will affect a pilot’s ability to respond to that signal. A signal could be missed because of physical problems related to the ear or because of environmental issues such as noise. In addition to signal interference, noise associated with flight can cause physiological and/or psychological problems that can degrade performance.  The effects of noise on performance are complex. However, from an operational point of view, one of the most important issues is how noise affects attention. A number of studies have explored this issue.  Findings demonstrated that noise tends to decrease the ability to share attention between several concurrent tasks, especially when the tasks must be performed for extended periods of time.

Human factors plays a key role when considering the materials and design features of these plastics and can help manufacturers achieve functional yet reusable product designs.  However, In many cases, reusable device manufacturers do not consider reprocessing until after the design is complete.  One way in which Human Factors can impact these reusable products is through design considerations. The choice of material is crucial for a product to ensure it is reusable, reliable, and durable. Ensuring a device is reusable includes avoiding design decisions that create inaccessible areas or excessive wear by the user especially when considering devices that need to be cleaned and sterilized (like in the medical field).  Ease of disassembly must also be considered when designing for reuse as users will be discouraged from recycling components and will simply trash the product instead.

Did you know that the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society has 24 technical groups that are concerned with the human factors aspects of specific application areas?  One of those is the The Surface Transportation Technical Group (STTG)  This technical group provides a forum for people involved or interested in human factors to exchange information, methodologies, and ideas that are being developed and/or applied in the international surface transportation field.  The TG’s interest encompasses numerous modes for transporting humans and resources: passenger, commercial, and military vehicles, both on- and off-road; mass transit; maritime transportation; rail transit, including Vessel Traffic Services (VTS); pedestrian and bicycle traffic; and highway and infrastructure systems. In essence, surface transportation refers to all forms of transit outside the aerospace sector. Members of the Surface Transportation Technical Group recognize that the human operator is an integral component of a system (comprised of the operator, the surface vehicle, and the environment), just as the pilot is an integral component of the aircraft system. Therefore, the same effort that goes into designing and developing the vehicle and its infrastructure must be put into optimizing the behavior and performance of the operator.  As the performance capabilities of ground, rail, and waterbased vehicles become more advanced, accompanied by equal advances in the complexity of the operating environments, action must be take to ensure that vehicle handlers are able to perform their tasks with minimal errors and maximum comfort. In addition to focusing upon the relationship between operators and their vehicles, members of the STTG are concerned with the behavior and performance of others who interact with these vehicles, including passengers, pedestrians, service personnel, etc. Furthermore, as the Information Age leads to technological developments that can enhance the safety and efficiency of transportation systems, STTG members are becoming more and more interested in the effects of infrastructure development (e.g., highways, traffic control devices, traffic management centers, etc.) on vehicle operators.

Waste collection work is associated with a variety of physical, chemical, and biological hazards.  Some studies and reports suggest that fatal injuries when exposed to these hazards are more than doubling when considering door-to-door waste collection occupations.  Waste collectors are required to perform tasks that involve Frequent lifting of heavy loads, high repetitive tasks, long work durations and insufficient recovery times.  These are seen are significant risk factors that may result in chronic injuries and diseases. Human factors plays an important role in improving safety for workers by implementing several human factors principles when considering the design of products, processes, and procedures.  Some of these include: Training operators on proper lifting techniques Increasing frequency of collection to reduce overall weight of containers suggesting rotation of staffing to reduce fatigue in single individuals  and ergonomic improvements of the collection bins and trucks to be easier to maneuver or use by operators These are just some of the ways in which Human Factors can contribute to ensure minimal waste makes it to the ocean To donate to #teamseas or to find out more about the #teamseas campaign, visit teamseas.org This has been another Human Factors Minute!

This can help identify how to refine the work system’s processes and ultimately improve successful human factors and ergonomics design, intervention, or implementation.

Anthropotechnic is a term used in art, science and literature to denote something with aspects of both man and machine. In the case of art, it is claimed that the "modified" does not set a limit but instead opens an infinite horizon that is as wide and limitless as human desires. Another conceptualization is that anthropotechnic is a set of rules that we make to tame, teach, and train ourselves. The concept is distinguished from anthropotechnology which focuses on the study and improvement of working and living conditions. Anthropotechnology, in the technology sector, it is any field of science that attempts to make machines and automation more user-friendly. In sociology, it is used to describe the relationship between man and anything that is perceived as inflexible or inhumane such as slavery, religion or animals. One common case cited through history, particularly during the 18th century, is that freemasonry could also be considered anthropotechnic in the sense that it acted as a caste of technocrats managing society and the human sphere.

One of those is the Perception and Performance Technical Group  The Perception and Performance Technical Group’s primary purpose is to promote exchanging information about perception and its relation to human performance.   As its name implies, PPTG encompasses all sensory/perceptual modalities, not just vision.   Areas of concern include the nature, content, and quantification of sensory information and the context in which it is displayed; the physics and psychophysics of information display; perceptual and cognitive representation and interpretation of displayed information; and more.  Because the perceptual processing of sensory information is relevant to so many aspects of human performance across modalities, the professional interests and activities of PPTG members are diverse. Some individuals conduct research on perceptual processes and the impact on performance of displaying information in specific sensory modalities, whereas others apply the results of this research to the design of information displays and supporting products.

An effective HMI should support optimal human performance. Alarms help personnel to maintain a system or process within a safe operating ‘envelope’ and help them recognise early and respond to faults, malfunctions or abnormal conditions. An alarm can be defined as an audible or visual indication of an equipment malfunction, process deviation, or abnormal condition requiring a response by a person. A key point is that every alarm should have a clearly defined operator response. If a response cannot be defined, then the signal generated by the Human-Machine Interface should not be an alarm. Ineffective alarm management has often been cited as a contributory factor in major accidents around the world. Alarm management refers to the processes and practices for designing, operating, monitoring and maintaining alarm systems.

When product users are injured through the foreseeable use (or misuse) of a product, we analyze three phases of the product's development: the design, guards and warnings.  Manufacturers have the responsibility to eliminate known hazards, or to take reasonable steps to guard the user from being inadvertently exposed to the hazard. If the hazard cannot be feasibly eliminated or guarded, effective instructions and warnings are necessary to alert and inform the user about the hazard, how to avoid the hazard, and the consequences of not avoiding the hazard.  We can determine the likelihood that the defect existed when it left the manufacturer's hands, if the product was unreasonably altered, and if a defect was the proximate cause of an injury. Product liability often includes human factors analysis of the adequacy of instructions and warnings that accompanied the product.

As applied to macroergonomics, evaluators are able to analyze the usability of work system designs to identify how well a work system is organized and how well the workflow is integrated.  The focus of the cognitive walkthrough is on understanding the system's learnability for new or infrequent users. The cognitive walkthrough was originally designed as a tool to evaluate walk-up-and-use systems like postal kiosks, automated teller machines (ATMs), and interactive exhibits in museums where users would have little or no training. However, the cognitive walkthrough has been employed successfully with more complex systems like CAD software and software development tools to understand the first experience of new users.

Here are a few questions you can ask about your workplace: What human factors influenced the behaviors of the operators in the control room? What factors might influence the key decisions that you and your team make?  Does your organisation impose artificial deadlines that may lead to corner-cutting or shortcuts, in order to meet targets?  Investigations sometimes conclude that an incident is the result of ‘human error’ and blame a few individuals. If we take this approach, how effective will we be at preventing similar events?  How does your organisation learn lessons? Do you really learn lessons (e.g. change your designs or processes), or do you simply share the messages? Does anyone follow-up that learnings have been embedded? Are near-misses investigated and lessons shared within your company (and with the wider industry)? What might prevent such sharing?  How do you prepare staff for unusual situations, process upsets and emergencies?  How can you improve the effectiveness of on-site emergency plans (those implemented by the company) and off-site emergency plans (those implemented by the authorities)?  Hopefully these questions were helpful to start applying some of the lessons learned from Chernobyl to your everyday lives. That's all on Chernobyl for now, but we may revisit the topic in the future.   There are a few lessons learned that we can take from the Chernobyl disaster.  Engaging our colleagues and leaders on the topics of human error, design failures and safety culture can help improve our workplaces.

One example is the material used in the control rods. Control rods made of boron are lowered into the reactor core to slow the nuclear reaction. However, the tip of the control rods at Chernobyl were made of graphite, which temporarily increase the reaction as they enter the core.   The emergency AZ-5 button reinserts all of the control rods, which shuts down the reaction. When this button was pressed as a last resort, the large number of descending graphite tips led to a huge surge in reactor power.  Then, as parts of the system ruptured, the control rods were blocked from moving further down and so the graphite tips continued to accelerate the reaction, leading to the inevitable explosion. The operators at Chernobyl were under the impression that the AZ-5 button was a fail-safe shut-down.  They were not aware of this design flaw. If they had understood, it may have influenced some of their decisions. To this day, some major companies continue to blame control room operators, pilots, train drivers and offshore drillers, rather than explore design issues or leadership behaviours that set these staff up to fail.

The IAEA updated their conclusions in a 1993 report. New information since the 1986 report led them to "shift the emphasis of its conclusions from the actions of the operating staff to faulty design of the reactor’s control rods and safety systems.  Deficiencies in the regulation and management of safety matters throughout the Soviet nuclear power industry have also been revealed and are discussed”. The focus on human error in the early reports will mean that for many, human error and violation of operating procedures by staff will always be remembered as the main causes of this disaster.  However, safety culture is where this all started. Both IAEA reports identified an inadequate "safety culture"  at all managerial and operational levels as a major underlying factor of different aspects of the accident.  This was stated to be inherent not only in operations but also during design, engineering, construction, manufacture and regulation. For example, during the incident Reactor 4 was started up to meet a deadline and some commissioning activities were not undertaken.  But even before the deadlines to commission the reactor, there were pressures at the early design stages – at a phase that is sometimes referred to as Concept Select – when the reactor design was chosen.  The choice of reactor type was influenced by construction time, given the country’s ambitious power generation targets.  Unfortunately the reactor chosen had several inherent design faults, and sadly, some of these faults were known. With hindsight, there’s little doubt that people didn’t perform as expected – but understanding shared cultural attitudes towards safety also contributed to the disaster.   In our previous Human Factors Minute on the Chernobyl disaster, we mentioned that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) had released a report detailing their conclusions of the disaster.

These three aspects are interrelated and therefore not mutually exclusive.   A company’s safety culture is shaped by corporate practices and organisational behaviour, and so a full picture can’t be gained from just focusing on the perceptions of staff.  If you collect data (from surveys, talking to staff etc) then communicate the findings back to those involved – and take action.Interventions on safety culture should not only explore attitudes and behaviours of the front-line workforce, but also question and challenge managers and leaders.  Rather than trying to influence safety culture directly, it's helpful to focus on a specific topic (such as procedures, fatigue, competence). How you go about this intervention could have a significant effect on a range of predictors of a positive safety culture (such as involving staff, listening to their concerns, making leaders more visible and taking visible action to improve).  Creating a positive safety culture takes a great deal of time and effort; perhaps over several years; and is not a one-off process.

A wide variety of different task analysis methods exist, and it would be impracticable to describe all these techniques here. Instead, the intention is to describe representative methodologies applicable to different types of task. The term Task Analysis (TA) can be applied very broadly to encompass a wide variety of human factors techniques. Nearly all task analysis techniques provide, as a minimum, a description of the observable aspects of operator behavior at various levels of detail, together with some indications of the structure of the task. These will be referred to as action oriented approaches.  Other techniques focus on the mental processes which underlie observable behavior, e.g. decision making and problem solving. These are referred to as cognitive approaches.  TA methods can be used to eliminate the preconditions that give rise to errors before they occur. They can be used as an aid in the design stage of a new system, or the modification of an existing system. They can also be used as part of an audit of an existing system.
