Winner of the "Outstanding Academic Title" recognition by Choice for the 2020 OAT Awards.

The Choice OAT Award represents the highest caliber of scholarly titles that have been reviewed by Choice and conveys the extraordinary recognition of the academic community.

Advancing Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice through Human Systems Engineering highlights how scholars and practitioners of HSE (inclusively defined to span many fields) can apply their theories and methods to understand and support healthy communities, include and empower diverse populations, and inspire strategies for a more inclusive future. This volume brings together experts from human factors, ergonomics, psychology, human-computer interaction, and more to demonstrate how these fields can be applied to societal challenges and solutions. Through a blend of research reports, literature reviews, and personal narratives, this volume explores these issues from the individual to the global scale, across diverse populations, and across multiple continents.

Features

Draws upon human factors and ergonomics theories and methods to evaluate, understand, and confront systemic threats to inclusion and social justice

Offers actionable methodologies, strategies, and recommendations for conducting human-centered research, design, and training with marginalized or vulnerable populations

Offers a venue for reporting and reconsidering the work of human factors and ergonomics from the perspectives of diversity, inclusion, and social justice

As modern military operations become more complex, the need for rapid, coordinated decision-making across multiple domains-air, land, maritime, space, and cyberspace-has never been greater. The U.S. Department of War has identified artificial intelligence (AI) as a critical tool in overcoming these challenges, enabling faster and more efficient responses in high-stakes environments. However, for AI to be effective, it must function well within human teams and organizational structures. This book explores the evolving role of AI in military and defense operations, with a focus on how human-AI teams can be optimized for success.This title offers a practical guide to the next generation of human-AI teaming. Built on the findings of a major research initiative led by the National Academies Board on Human-Systems Integration, this book compiles key insights into the infrastructure, metrics, and conceptual frameworks essential for advancing human-AI collaboration. Readers will gain an understanding of the latest testbed research, validated performance metrics, and novel but critical concepts for evaluating human-AI teams. This book provides a foundation for improving decision-making and coordination in complex operational settings.Advancements in Human Agent Teaming Research Infrastructure: Testbeds, Metrics, and Concepts is an essential resource for researchers, engineers, and policymakers working in AI development, human factors, and defense strategy. It will also benefit military professionals and industry leaders seeking to understand how AI can enhance operational effectiveness while maintaining human oversight and trust.
