Abstract

Kanis provides an interesting but prescriptive view on reliability and validity in human factors and ergonomics (HFE) research. For HFE recommendations to be implemented the research must communicate with and convince the target audience. To achieve this, researchers will continue to use a selection of analytical tools across both disciplines (and industrial sectors) and the methodological continuum. A major step forward in improving the quality (including reliability and validity) of evaluation research in HFE is the development and validation of mixed methods critical appraisal tools. Sponsors, funders and editors should encourage researchers and reviewers to take a more systematic approach to raise the quality of HFE research in practice and publication.
