无论出于何种原因,意识的发展都会发展,我们对自己在生态位的意识都将被期望能够兼容。工业革命对这种兼容性提出了质疑,因为许多人在不人道的条件下工作和生活。技术革命为这种兼容性提供了另一个(不太引人注目的)挑战。唐纳德·A·诺曼(Donald A.当我们无法适当处理水龙头,门和VCR的环境时,我们通常会怪自己。诺曼(Norman)表明,应该将大部分责任归咎于设计师,并以此为此,再次说明了心理学与我们的日常生活有关。在实验室中开发和检验的理论可用于使行为成功和日常生活中的失败合理化。尽管这本书试图证明不兼容是由于环境而不是参与者造成的,但它并不能解决我们责备自己的原因。也许我们的心理学也可能会谈论这个问题以及另一个问题。
For whatever reason consciousness evolved, our awareness of ourselves in our ecological niche would be expected to be experienced as compatible. The industrial revolution challenged this compatibility because many individuals worked and lived in inhumane conditions. The technological revolution provides another (less compelling) challenge to this compatibility. Donald A. Norman's goal is to help relieve feelings of incompatibility by putting the blame on the poor design of everyday things in our environment rather than on ourselves. When we fail to deal appropriately with our environment of water faucets, doors, and VCRs, we usually blame ourselves. Norman demonstrates that much of the blame should be placed on the designer and, in so doing, illustrates once again that psychology is relevant to our everyday life. Theories developed and tested in the laboratory can be used to rationalize behavioral successes and failures in everyday life. Although the book seeks to show that the incompatibility is due to the environment and not the participant, it does not address the reason that we blame ourselves. Perhaps our psychology might also speak to this issue as well as the other.
