Abstract
Recent advances in cognitive neuroscience and progress in neuroimaging have radically changed our understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying human perceptual, cognitive, and motor functioning. These findings are of great importance for applied scientific disciplines concerned with the evaluation of human performance. Since the early 2000s, Neuroergonomics, the intersection of Neuroscience, Cognitive Engineering, and Human Factors, proposes to examine the brain mechanisms and underlying human–technology interaction in increasingly naturalistic settings representative of work and in everyday-life situations. The objective of merging these disciplines into a single field of research is to encourage cross-fertilization and to provide new tools at the epistemological, methodological, and technical levels. This approach is known as Neuroergonomics.
