Material Detail

Neuroergonomics as defined by Raja Parasuraman is the study of “the brain at work and in everyday life” (Parasuraman, 2003). This rapidly growing research field aims at understanding human brain function underlying the many facets of human interaction with technical systems (Dehais et al., 2020). The term “cognition” is used to describe different processes (e.g., attention, memory, decision making) relevant to human-technology interaction. Cognitive neuroergonomics, then, can be defined as a section of neuroergonomics concerned with the investigation of the neural bases of those cognitive processes involved in the user's interaction with a technical system at work or during everyday life. One of the defining aspects of cognitive neuroergonomics is that it uses insights from analyzing neural dynamics in these settings to inform cognitive theory and models, as well as to improve our understanding of human brain function underlying cognition, in general.
