Did my sentence "...and most software engineers don’t understand the value of true human factors engineering — in particular the cognitive psychology and human-computer interaction expertise that human factors engineers bring to user interface design" not show that I am aware of HCI?
- rayboyd 15y agoMost software engineers do not need a deep understanding of Human Factors as a working tool, it is a broad term covering multiple disciplines and mediums - particularly focused on physical forms. HCI is focused on computer interaction; you are discussing user interface design.
