Supporting System-Centered View of Operators Through Ecological Interface Design: Two Experiments on Human-Centered Automation

Human operators faced with an unexpected situation while controlling a complex system can take effective action if they are provided a system-centered view based on Ecological Interface Design (EID). To date there is only limited empirical support for the efficacy of EID in enhancing human-automation interaction. This paper presents results from two studies of EID in human-automation interaction, drawn from different domains, flight simulation...
