The textbook offers a heavy emphasis on design, and gives broad coverage of design principles and techniques of predicting human performance. Critiques of principles and tools used in predictions are also addressed. Authors Mark R. Lehto and James R. Buck adopt a quantitative angle so that students experience the applications of statistics, and observe the implications of those results to the design. Challenging end-of-chapter problems are exceptionally valuable for course instruction. Moreover, the book presents numerous vignettes to illustrate practical examples of theoretical concepts.
This text is appropriate for engineering, psychology, and science students at the upper undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also ideal for engineers and designers. For students, a background in the fundamentals of probability and statistics is assumed.
