Description
"Human Performance provides the student and researcher with a comprehensive and accessible review of both performance in the real world and essential cognitive science theory." "Four main sections cover both theoretical and practical issues: Section One outlines the perspectives on performance offered by contemporary cognitive science, including information processing and neuroscience perspectives; Section Two presents a multi-levelled view of the performer as biological organism, information-processor and intentional agent. It reviews the development of the cognitive theory of performance through experimental studies and also looks at practical issues such as human error; Section Three reviews the impact of stress factors on performance such as noise, fatigue and illness; Section Four assesses individual and group differences in performance with accounts of ability, personality and ageing."--BOOK JACKET.
