Slide Presentation from the AHRQ 2007 Annual Conference

Use Human Factors Engineering Design Thinking (modified from Sanders and McCormick 1993)

• Technologies need to be designed for and to work with people
• Systems must be designed to accommodate the range of users
• How systems are designed will influence human behavior and therefore system performance
• Design needs to be evidence-based, not "common sense" or designer driven
• All design must take into account the system of use
