Maggiori informazioni sul libro

In modern life, especially within the workplace, information technology and automation increasingly shape how humans engage with their environment. Understanding and supporting cognition in human-technology interaction is a pressing practical and social challenge. This volume explores how behavior and cognition adapt, or fail to adapt, to environments where tools and technology mediate interactions. The authors draw on the foundational work of Egon Brunswik, a pioneer in ecological and cognitive psychology, alongside contemporary developments such as Hammond's Social Judgment Theory, Gigerenzer's Ecological Rationality, and Anderson's Rational Analysis. Inspired by Brunswik's perspective of cognition as a means to navigate the external world, the chapters present quantitative and computational models to study how individuals adjust to an increasingly technological landscape. They also offer insights for enhancing cognition and performance through design, training, and other interventions. The methods and models discussed serve as vital resources for tackling challenges in the expanding field of human-technology interaction. This volume will appeal to researchers, students, and practitioners in human factors, cognitive engineering, human-computer interaction, judgment and decision-making, and cognitive science.
