Özet
Human factors and ergonomics (HFE) will inevitably face challenges arising from changing conditions, particularly technological developments. Six main challenges have been identified: Evolution of Societal Thinking; Future of Human Work in Industry 5.0; Climate Change and Sustainability; Future of Education and Training; Future of Personalized Health; and Life, Technology, and the Metaverse. Considering these challenges independently would be unrealistic, given HFE’s aim of ensuring human health and well-being. Therefore, this study analyzes their relationships using a two-stage approach. First, Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) examines their mutual influences. Second, Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) identifies the driving forces and root challenges. The results indicate that Evolution of Societal Thinking influences three other areas, while Future of Human Work in Industry 5.0 and Future of Education and Training exhibit internal dependencies. Finally, the study discusses how these findings can help mitigate future HFE challenges.
