Title: Disasters in the Literature of Human Factors: An Analysis of Subject and Application Terms
Subjects: B. Information use and sociology of information > BB. Bibliometric methods
Date: 2004
Abstract: In this preliminary study, we analyzed the literature of disasters as covered by the field of human factors. The purpose is to reach a better understanding of the structure of human factors information and its major components as they relate to disaster technological information. Classification terms from Ergonomics Abstracts were used for a co-occurrence analysis. Six clusters have been identified. Correspondence analysis to determine associations between classification terms and applications terms produced a description of their relationship.
