Systems Ergonomics/Human Factors: Looking into the future
Special Issue dedicated to the memory of John Wilson
John Wilson was the key leader of this special issue; he sadly passed away before its publication.
<http://mail.elsevier-alerts.com/go.asp?/bESJ001/mKJF3KCF/qTS6LKCF/uFH8Z9JC/x0KYUKCF/cutf%2D8> Obituary: John Wilson 1951 - 2013
>> <http://mail.elsevier-alerts.com/go.asp?/bESJ001/mKJF3KCF/qBJOLKCF/uFH8Z9JC/x0KYUKCF/cutf%2D8> Read the full editorial
In 2010, under the leadership of its president, Andy Imada, the International Ergonomics Association (IEA) convened a committee to address the question of how ergonomics/human factors (E/HF) should best maintain and strengthen both the discipline and the profession (Dul et al., 2012). A key commonality identified by the working group was of E/HF being clearly a systems discipline. However, perhaps not surprisingly, some group members differed over what that meant. From those discussions grew the idea of a special issue of Applied Ergonomics that would contain different contributions that explore, describe, define or question the ideas of systems E/HF. The result, this special issue, includes a mix of viewpoints from different generations, regions, domains and types of E/HF specialization.
This special issue on Systems Ergonomics, freely available online for a 12 month period, includes 14 articles from authors around the world and brings up critical points in three areas of systems ergonomics. It is our hope that this initiates a healthy debate that results in a clearer understanding of E/HF for research and practice in the coming years.
