The authors also suggest new research directions likely to further knowledge in this field. The report contains six chapters. The first two describe cognitive ergonomics in relation to other fields of scientific research, and give a general outline of the problems involved. Chapters 3, 4 and 5 in turn describe the three major aspects of person-computer interaction: the information processing system, the human user, and the task.
