“ It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them. ”

Boysen, Allen and Haber, Paul (1989): Dysphagia: New Technologies in Aging. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. pp. 194-198.

“The normal process of swallowing is an extremely complicated and highly integrated process, only part of which is under voluntary control. The normal process of swallowing requires that the neuromuscular structure, the cartilaginous and bony elements and their innervation will be intact. A number of high technology and semi-technology procedures have been developed which will help elucidate the cause of the swallowing problem. These include: videofluoroscopy, scintigraphy, manometry, fiberoptic endos-copy, ultra-sound, and clinical auscultation. A deglutition team consisting of otolaryngologist, neurologist, speech-language pathologist, radiologist, nurse practitioner, and dietitian can have a major impact on determining the cause of the swallowing difficulty and correcting it.”

Smith, David B. D., Czaja, Sara J., Clark, M. Cherie, Haber, Paul and Harootyan, Robert (1987): Aging and Technological Innovation. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 694-695.

“Technology advances coupled with the certainty of an aging population has stimulated recent interest in the interface of technology and the older individual (Technology&Aging, 1985; Aging&Technological Advances, 1984). The U.S. population over 65 is expected to steadily increase into the first part of the next century and then rapidly grow to 20% or more by the year 2030. The course of technological advancement over this time frame is less certain but for the environment of the older person it likely involves changes in job requirements, training needs, equipment interface design and the availability of new assessment, assistance and supportive devices. This session will consider the implications of technological innovation for an elderly population in three areas: daily living tasks, health care, and work.”
