Burri, George J., Czaja, Sara J., Drury, Colin G. and Helander, Martin G. (1987): A Field Evaluation of Office Chairs. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 1121-1122.

“Ten ergonomic office chairs, chosen from a sample of eighty-four, were evaluated in an ergonomic field study. Twenty office employees used each of the chairs for one day. The chairs were evaluated using four different methods: a chair feature evaluation checklist, a ranking procedure, general comfort and body part discomfort ratings. The first two methods produced positive results, including significant differences between the chairs. The chair users generally had difficulties in perceiving and expressing their comfort and discomfort associated with the latter two methods. The study identified several distinct features related to chair comfort, including the design of the seat pan, back rest, arm rests and ease of adjustability.”
