Man-Computer Interaction Research - Macinter II: Selected Papers of the Man-Computer Interaction Research Network of the International Union of Psychological Science (IUPsyS)

Since MACINTER I appeared two years ago, research into human-computer interaction has been advancing at an undiminished rate all over the world. The papers in this book deal with the psychological aspects of human-computer interaction, and present the results of basic and applied psychological research. The basic research areas are cognitive issues in human-computer interaction, user's mental models, user's strategies, knowledge representation and elicitation, and learning and user training. The application of findings in psychology-based system design is also discussed. Emphasis is placed on both interdisciplinary cooperation (between psychology and computer science) as well as intradisciplinary cooperation (between different fields of psychology e.g. cognitive and industrial psychology). A general overview on the state of the art in quite different groups in East and West Europe and Japan is presented. Empirical data as well as theoretical and methodological approaches for the practical design of human-computer interaction are summarized in this book.Klix, F. is the author of 'Man-Computer Interaction Research - Macinter II: Selected Papers of the Man-Computer Interaction Research Network of the International Union of Psychological Science (IUPsyS)', published 1989 under ISBN 9780444873361 and ISBN 0444873368.
