Question 14

ergonomics

Answer 14

reduce errors, fatigue, and losses of equipment

increase safety, improve performance, increase personnel, increase user acceptance

Question 15

3 ergonomic domains

Answer 15

physical (anotomical)
cognitive (perception)
organization (structure)

Question 16

3 dimensions of ergonomics literacy

Answer 16

1. ergo knowledge & skills (human limitations)
2. think & act (shopping around)
3. ## ergo capabilities (identify and solve ergo problems)

Question 17

symvatology

Answer 17

artifact human capability
(understanding artifacts shows how it affect users in order to reduce human error)

Question 18

human factors engineering

Answer 18

concern (effectively human-system interfaces to get the best performance) does so by task analyses and system functions

Question 19

nueroergonomics

Answer 19

nuerons & brain manifestations of perceptual, physical, cognitive, emotion (considers nuerotransmitters)

Question 20

nanoergonomics

Answer 20

addresses issues of human interacting devices (nanotech)

Question 21

human factors enginerring concern & how achieve best performance

Answer 21

concern (optimize performance)
how? understanding and integration of human capabilities(cognitive, physical, sensory, team dynamics)

Question 22

significance of human factors objectives with systems design & optimization

Answer 22

devlop design principles, guideline, methodologies, & tools (i.e. impact of aging on reaction time)

Question 23

Human systems integration

Answer 23

taking all parts of system into consideration

Question 24

gender, caregiving impact workplace

Answer 24

more women = more maternity leave (better for firefighter bc smaller)
caregiver = daycare
culture= traditions

Question 25

systems theory & reductionist approach

Answer 25

systems(components of system in terms of whole system)
reductionist (focus on physical components)

Question 26

closed loop & open loop

Answer 26

closed (requires continuous control and feedback for error correction)
open (no feedback for continuous control and feedback for error correction

Question 27

human reliability

Answer 27

humans will perform at highest capacity over time

Question 28

quantitative vs qualitative

Answer 28

quan ( predict human error)
qual (understand what contributes to human error)
