人类工程师作为系统设计团队的顾问,面临着以这样一种方式测量系统性能的问题,即可以评估系统的各种元素。这种测量技术的有效性经常受到质疑,但很少有关于这种测量技术的验证数据。对用于调查人机系统的验证措施所涉及的问题的分析表明,现代心理学中坚持的有效性概念可能不足以用于人类工程师面对处于发展阶段的系统。系统评价的一般方法和有效性的概念进行了讨论,在确定测量方案的有效性方面所涉及的问题,通常用于调查的人机系统的属性。
The human engineer, in his role as consultant to system design teams, is confronted with problems of measuring system performance in such a way that various elements of the system can be evaluated. The validity of such measurement techniques is often questioned but little data concerning the validation of such measurement techniques is available. Analysis of the problems involved in validating measures used in investigating man—machine systems suggest that the concepts of validity as adhered to in modern psychology might not be adequate for use by a human engineer confronted with a system in its development stage. The general approach to system evaluation and the concepts of validity are discussed in terms of the problems involved in determining the validity of measurement schemes commonly used in investigating the properties of a man—machine system.
