A Salute to Robert Key Dismukes: A Mentor for Translational Research in Human Factors
As the fields of study associated with human factors (aviation psychology, cognitive systems engineering, engineering psychology, etc.) become broader in scope, the drive to bring the findings from academic research to those who can benefit from study findings must also expand. This paper honors Robert Key Dismukes, Ph.D., through a case study that illustrates how the bridge from research to practice (and back to research) can be built and how human factors professionals can translate and share what they know with new scientists, target populations, and the public at large. This review of Dr. Dismukes’ work demonstrates how the findings from human factors research can be brought to the operational world with a focus on his mentorship and modeling of ethical science

DEVELOPMENT OF AN OPTIMAL PATIENT TRANSFER TASK SET AND SIMULATION-BASED INTERVENTION TO REDUCE MUSCULOSKELETAL INJURY IN HEALTHCARE WORKERS
Introduction: Occupational injury is recognized as a key attrition factor in nursing with musculoskeletal injury the most common cause. Nurses, nurse aides and orderly injury rates are consistently listed in the top ten US occupations in terms of total numbers of injuries with patient transfer a primary etiologic factor. Patient transfer education for trainees as well as employees remains inconsistent and non-standardized. Legislative and policy efforts have not been effective.Methods: Two methods are combined in this paper to approach the problem: hierarchical task analysis and a simulation educational intervention. Hierarchical task analysis has been used to solve industrial process problems for more than three decades and simulation education methods have been used in aviation since the 1920's. The hierarchical task analysis process is used to develop an optimal task set which was used to frame and implement a healthcare simulationtraining intervention.Results: Performance evaluation tools for patient transfer were developed based on the optimum task set. Transfer of simulation training outcomes to the clinical setting was demonstrated on pilot study intervention and control units. The program was implemented in a community hospital with sustained improvement in transfer skill and reduction of injury rates and lost work days.Conclusion: Because patient safety and improved outcomes are linked to adequate levels of nurse staffing, the public health implications of this project are significant. If nursing injury can be avoided using these methods then true progress can be made in arresting the injury epidemic with resultant reduction of nursing workforce losses with consequent healthcare system benefits

Experiencias pedagógicas e innovación educativa. Aportaciones desde la praxis docente e investigadora
Este libro recoge las principales aportaciones al IV Congreso Internacional Virtual sobre Innovación Pedagógica y Praxis Educativa-Innovagogía 2018,
organizado por el Colectivo Docente Internacional Innovagogía y AFOE Formación, que tuvo como preámbulo el II Seminario de Innovación Docente: nuevas perspectivas y temas emergentes, celebrado en la Universidad Pablo de Olavide, de Sevilla (España).
En el Congreso están implicados tanto profesionales individuales como organizaciones e instituciones de ámbito internacional, preocupadas por la innovación, la práctica educativa y formativa de calidad.
Está dirigido a profesorado, personal técnico y profesionales de la Educación de cualquier etapa y en todos sus ámbitos: maestros, docentes de secundaria,
bachillerato y formación profesional, profesorado universitario, profesionales del trabajo y la educación social, formación ocupacional y permanente, animación sociocultural, tiempo libre, y animación juvenil, entre otros profesionales.
Los trabajos incluidos recogen reflexiones y experiencias de un total de 540
participantes de 17 nacionalidades diferentes, pertenecientes a más de 100 entidades, 78 de ellas universidades.
Las líneas temáticas en las que se insertan inciden en las buenas prácticas y aportaciones docentes e investigadoras sobre la praxis educativa en los niveles
universitarios y no universitarios, hablan del impacto de las Nuevas Tecnologías en la educación y la formación, así como de la mejora de la calidad de vida
de las personas, sostenibilidad medioambiental, cooperación para el desarrollo, estudios de género e igualdad, educación y formación de personas adultas.
Estamos seguros que la amplitud, diversidad y profundización de las distintas aportaciones ofrecerá nuevas pistas y numerosas ideas para orientar la labor
socio-educativa de los distintos colectivos profesionales involucrados.Facultad Ciencias Sociales. Departamento de Educación y Psicología SocialVersión del edito
