Human Factors in the APA

...and now for another Human Factors Minute! The American Psychological Association (APA) is a scientific and professional organization that represents psychologists in the United States, with over 121,000 members, including scientists, educators, clinicians, consultants, and students. The APA has 54 divisions—interest groups for different subspecialties of psychology or topical areas. While all divisions may be traced to Human Factors in some capacity, there are 5 divisions within the APA that the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society has identified as key divisions. These divisions include: Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (Division 14) Adult Development and Aging (Division 20) Applied Experimental and Engineering Psychology (Division 21) Rehabilitation Psychology (Division 22) For more information on the American Psychological Association, visit APA.org This has been another Human Factors Minute!

Profile picture for Nick Roome

Nick Roome

Nick is currently a Senior UX Researcher at Turvo in the Pacific Northwest, focused on developing innovative solutions and optimizing human performance for SaaS based supply chain logistics programs. Alongside colleague and friends, Blake Arnsdorff and Barry Kirby, Nick hosts and produces Human Factors Cast, a weekly podcast that investigates the sciences of human factors, psychology, engineering, biomechanics, industrial design, physiology and anthropometry and how it affects our interaction with technology. Nick’s other areas of interest include, but are not limited to virtual, augmented, and mixed reality, systems engineering, and artificially intelligent systems.

Nick Started Human Factors Cast in early 2016 as a side-project. He believed that the way Human Factors concepts were being communicated is broken and saw a way to fix it. After getting initial traction, Nick moved to work on the Human Factors Cast Digital Media Lab and began assembling a multi-disciplinary team to test out new concepts in Human Factors communication.
