Industrial Ergonomics Test 2
Review(100% Correct Answers)
Human Information Processing (HIP) processors - ✔✔✔-
CORRECTmotor processor, perceptual processor, cognitive
processor
motor processor (motor memory) - ✔✔✔-CORRECT-Converts
decisions and plans into physical actions (e.g., moving hands,
speaking).
-Works closely with thecognitive system to performactions based
on decisions
perceptual processor (perceptual memory) - ✔✔✔-CORRECT-
Responsible for gathering information from the environment (via
sensory organs like eyes and ears)
-Processes sensory input andconverts it into symbols thebrain
can interpret
, cognitive processor - ✔✔✔-CORRECT-Handles the interpretation
of sensory input, decision-making, problem-solving, and
reasoning
-Links perceptual information to knowledge stored in memory and
coordinates action.
what are the stages of information processing - ✔✔✔-
CORRECTperception, memory, and decision-making
memory - ✔✔✔-CORRECTPay attention to something and use
memory
decision-making - ✔✔✔-CORRECTUse memory to make
decisions about something
What is the most important step in the HIP model and why? -
✔✔✔-CORRECTperception, nothing else happens if you do not
perceive it
How many types of attention are there? - ✔✔✔-CORRECTfour
List the types of attention - ✔✔✔-CORRECTSelective, Focused,
Sustained, Divided
Selective attention - ✔✔✔-CORRECTmay monitor several
channels to perform a single task to determine if an event has
occurred
what does having more channels to monitor do to our
performance? - ✔✔✔-CORRECTdecreases our performance
sustained attention - ✔✔✔-CORRECTvigilance - prolonged
attention to a specific stimuli
