Human Factors Methods for Design - Making Systems Human-Centered (Hardcover, New)

Human Factors Methods for Design is a comprehensive tool to ensure that research and development is human-centred.
Human-centred design requires good research into human factors: what people can and cannot do, will and will not do. This text is an easy-to-use, in-depth guide for both professionals and students that describes the nature, procedures and methods of human factors research in the development process. It gives an overview of human behaviour and physiology. It describes roles of human factors and design in the development process including influences that the researcher encounters. It offers guidance on research methods, how to choose them and how to perform them. It also examines the practical implications of cost-effectiveness and how to communicate with others about human factors issues and research. Fifteen examples show how to apply the book's approach to software and product development.
Human Factors Methods for Design is a valuable introduction for students, an ongoing reference for practising professionals, and a stimulating primer for readers who are interested in the use of technology to serve human needs.
