Portnoy, Felix, Bellotti, Victoria, Lund, Arnie, Russell, Dan, Simsarian, Kristian, Wroblewski, Luke and Resnick, Marc (2010): Harvesting Innovation in the Industry: Prescriptions for breakthrough products. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 54th Annual Meeting 2010. pp. 1239-1243.

Innovation is a key element for the future of human factors, both as a discipline and as a professional society. However, formal training of innovation processes is absent from the human factors curriculum. Furthermore, published studies about innovation methodologies in human factors manuscripts are scarce. Consequently, practitioners are relying on their own experience and intuition to introduce novel product development techniques in their organization. Therefore, the goal of this panel is to discuss the innovation techniques that are employed by some of the most innovative companies in the technology domain. Human factors and user experience team leaders will present how they have formulated innovation strategies among team members and their impact on product development.

Resnick, Marc (1995): Estimating the Anthropometry of International Populations Using the Scaling Ratio Method. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 673-677.

Appropriate anthropometric data is a critical ingredient to good ergonomic design. For many populations, the available anthropometric data is severely limited; often just weight and stature is available. This study measured twenty key dimensions of the Colombian population to establish preliminary anthropometric measures in anticipation of a wider study, and evaluated the ability of the Scaling Ratio method to predict these data from anthropometric data of other populations. Results suggested that prediction errors are generally small when the reference population is similar in age, size, and ethnicity to the target population. However, the errors of some dimensions will be sufficiently large to prescribe that caution must be exercised in the use of any estimated data. The Colombian data was also compared to the U.S. civilian data which is currently used to design Colombian products (when anthropometric criteria are used at all). In terms of stature, when designing for ninety percent of the US population, only fifty-eight percent of the Colombian male population and sixty-eight percent of the Colombian female populations will be accommodated.

Resnick, Marc (1994): The Relationship between Interest and Learning in an Introductory Human Factors Course. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 38th Annual Meeting 1994. p. 990.

For several years, the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society has allotted a session at each annual conference to the discussion of human factors courses. Topics such as appropriate material to include, the use of projects and the discussion of textbooks have been addressed. However, a more basic principle needs to be considered. How do we promote and maintain students' interest in human factors as a field of study? Even more basic is the question of whether interest in the human factors will promote achievement, and if so, how? Previous research has investigated the relationships between interest and learning in elementary and high school students in topics from baseball and circuses to physics and math. How much of this research applies to human factors and to college level courses in general remains to be seen. Ten undergraduate industrial engineering students taking human factors for the first time evaluated chapters of two books over the course of a semester. They rated sections of 24 chapters on arbitrary scales for their interest in the material, the clarity of the material, and the usefulness they perceived the material to be to a practitioner of human factors. Interest and clarity (r = 0.57, p<0.01), interest and usefulness (r = 0.81, p<0.01), and clarity and usefulness (r = 0.36, p<0.01) were all positively correlated. Order was significantly correlated with interest (r = 0.29, p<0.01), clarity (r = 0.26, p<0.01) and perceived usefulness (r = 0.21, p<0.01). Correlations between course grades and interest (r = -0.40), clarity (r = -0.31), and perceived usefulness (-0.22) were all negative. Implications for the design of introductory human factors courses are discussed. The necessity for taking steps to maintain students' interest throughout the semester is reviewed. Evidence is presented for including hands-on assignments such as group projects, laboratory homework and small group discussions.
