Spatial orientation is involved in a variety of common tasks, which are often difficult for individuals to perform. In this paper, a model is used to demonstrate that a general strategy may be adapted for use in different spatial orientation tasks. The predictions of the model, which was adapted from a model for another orientation task, closely match human performance on the target task. More ...

In Human Factors and Ergonomics Science (HFES), it is difficult to identify what is the best approach to tackle the workplace and systems design problems which needs to be solved, and it has been also advocated as transdisciplinary and multidisciplinary the issue of "How to solve the human factors and ergonomics problems that are identified?". The proposition on this study is to combine the the...

The development and implementation of new advanced learning technologies is an important achievement in all levels of education and in business and industry. However, the benefits of advanced learning technologies are often not fully realized until human factors issues surrounding the use of that technology by instructors, students and other users are recognized and taken into consideration. Th...

ion is concerned with the ability to use those interactions to make predictions that can be compared with the real world. Ergonomics design is concerned with the ability to implement knowledge about those interactions and use them to develop systems that satisfy customer needs and relevant human compatibility requirements. Furthermore, the pillars for any scientific discipline include a definit...
