About this book
Computer systems acting on data from behavioural-output, physiological, and neurological sensing technologies are used to determine the user’s cognitive state and adapt the systems to change, support, and monitor human cognition. Various domains and case studies delve into the field of neuroergonomics in detail. These include, but are not limited to:
- an evaluation of technologies in health, workplace, and education settings, to show the different impacts of neuroergonomics in everyday lives;
- assessment of real-time cognitive measures;
- dynamic casual interactions between inhibition and updating functions, through analysis of behavioral, neurophysiological and effective connectivity metrics; and
- applications in human performance modelling and assessment of mental workload, showing the reader how to train and improve working memory capacity.
Neuroergonomics: Principles and Practice provides academic practitioners and graduate students with a single go-to handbook that will be of significant assistance in research associated with human factors and ergonomics, human-computer interaction, human-systems engineering and cognitive neuroscience.
