Self-Regulation in Activity Theory: Applied Work Design for Human-Computer and Human-Machine Systems Hardcover

This book provides insight into the application of Applied and Systemic-Structural Activity Theory (SSAT) to the study of human work. There are a number of independent experimental methods and techniques for the study of Human-Computer Interaction and work analysis in general. However there is no integral and unified theory behind the application of these methods and techniques. Until now. This book presents a unified theory and analytical procedure for the study of human work and ergonomic design where predictive models of work behavior are the main tool for design process and work analysis.
