Lahlou, Saadi (2001): Functional Aspects of Social Representations. In: Deaux, Kay and Philogene, Gina (eds.). "Representations of the Social". Blackwell Scientific Publicationspp. 131-146

Social representation theory encompasses the question of social knowledge processing: its construction, relation with action, and evolution. Among other theories addressing the same problem, social representation is especially efficient for understanding the evolution of social objects. Hereby, the theory is apt to investigate “ hot ” social problems, and has pragmatic applications for current societal issues. Social representations provide frameworks for group cooperation. This functionalist perspective enlightens some of their properties, namely: they are at the same time individual and collective; they contribute to group identity; they loop perception and action. The case of the social representation of “ eating ” illustrates some of these points.

Lahlou, Saadi (2000): Attracteurs cognitifs et travail de bureau. In Intellectica, 30 (1) pp. 75-113.

Le syndrome de débordement cognitif (“ COS ” :trop de sollicitations, pas le temps, des piles de choses à faire, etc.) est répandu chez les cadres et autres travailleurs intellectuels. A partir d’études détaillées du travail quotidien, nous avons construit un modèle explicatif. Les acteurs sont décrits comme navigant entre des “attracteurs cognitifs”. Un attracteur est un ensemble d’éléments matériels et immatériels qui participent potentiellement à une activité donnée, et qui sont simultanément présents du point de vue du sujet. L’attracteur est interprété par le sujet comme une Gestalt d’activité. La configuration, combinant des éléments du contexte et de l’état mental du sujet, tend à engager ce dernier dans l’activité correspondante. La force de l’attracteur est la combinaison de plusieurs facteurs : la prégnance, le coût, la valeur. L’acteur ne contrôle pas complètement son activité : il est entraîné par le flux en même temps qu’il se dirige. Un environnement désordonné et trop riche en attracteurs tend à provoquer du papillonnage et de la procrastination : les acteurs s’épuisent dans une séquence de petites tâches urgentes, au détriment des gros chantiers. La révolution informationnelle accroîtrait ainsi le “syndrome de saturation cognitive” parce qu’elle mutiplie les attracteurs. Quelques voies concrètes d’amélioration sont indiquées.

Lahlou, Saadi (1999): Observing Cognitive Work in Offices. In: Streitz, Norbert A., Siegel, J., Hartkopf, V. and Konomi, S. (eds.). "Cooperative Buildings. Integrating Information, Organizations and Architecture". Springerpp. 150-163

The information revolution has a deep impact on office work. To create better environments for cognitive workers, we designed two observation tools recording office activity. The Subcam (subjective camera) is a miniature, wearable, wide angle video camera, clipped on a pair of glasses ; it records individual activity from a subjective point of view, wherever the user goes. The Offsat (office satellite) takes a picture every minute from the ceiling, showing long term evolution in the spatial distribution of information artifacts (piles, etc.), and measuring the distribution of gross activity (meetings, stand alone computing, etc.). We currently use these tool in a series of new furniture and information artifact design experiments.

Forsythe, Chris, Karwowski, Waldemar, Baba, Marietta, Wiebe, Eric N., Lahlou, Saadi and Ashby, M. Rodema (1995): Human Factors in Agile Manufacturing. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 538-542.

The contributions of human factors to agile manufacturing are as varied as the numerous human components that constitute an industrial enterprise. As a framework for discussing some specific examples relevant to the elements of agility identified above, human factors contributions are categorized as follows: (1.) development of business practices; (2.) design of enabling technologies and (3.) management of the introduction and fielding of new technologies and business practices. The panel session will provide an introduction to these contributions, and an accounting of past and ongoing work.
