Season 05 Episode 01: Citizen Control."Consultation - meh! Peh!" complains Sara, with disdain. "There is a lot of corporate hazing and gaslighting," reflects Trajce. This episode was spurned by the presentation by Dr Elise Crawford of Central Queensland University on her reesarch of worker particpation in their work design during the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society of Australia Queensland seminar last year. Sara elaborates on the tiered scales of organisational citizenship which can fall into the categories of 'non participation,' 'tokenism,' and 'degrees of citizen power.' Alarmingly, 'consultation,' falls into the category of 'tokenism.' Alan reminds us that this is a workplace obligation in the work health and safety legislation ."It's a sham!" exclaims Trajce. He trails, "This sounds like another 'C-word' in our lexicon of work vocabulary..."

Jakob Nielsen addresses some of the criticism he's faced, calls on UXers to urgently adopt AI, and shares why he believes the commoditisation of UX is a good thing. Highlights include: Are you surprised by how much you've offended some people? Why do UXers need a greater sense of urgency about adopting AI? Were the hiring practices at your previous company elitist? What is the state of UX today and where is the growth potential? Will AI impede our ability to develop our professional judgement? ====== Who is Jakob Nielsen, PhD? Jakob is the founder of UX Tigers, the website and associated substack he uses to bring his 41 years of UX knowledge and experience to the world, in what he has described as a plainspoken, hard-hitting and not bowing to orthodoxy kind-of-way. Before founding UX Tigers, Jakob was the co-founder and principal - for 25 years - of a rather well known UX consultancy, the Nielsen Norman Group. His other notable roles include being a distinguished engineer at Sun Microsystems, and a member of the research staff at Bell Communications Research - one of the world's top three HCI labs in the 1990s. Jakob is known for many other things, among which are being the founder of the discount usability movement, the foundational 10 usability heuristics for user interface design, and the eponymously named Jakob's Law of Internet User Experience.  He is the holder of no less than 79 United States patents and the author of 8 books, including the best-selling “Designing Web Usability: The Practice of Simplicity”, “Usability Engineering”, and the pioneering “Hypertext and Hypermedia”. In 2013, Jakob received the Lifetime Achievement Award for HCI Practice from ACM SIGCHI and in 2024 he was named a “Titan of Human Factors” by the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society. ====== Find Jakob here: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jakobnielsenphd/ Website: https://www.uxtigers.com/ ====== Liked what you heard and want to hear more?

Network Operations Center and Security Operations Center (NOC / SOC) teams have complex and challenging cognitive tasks that are crucial to the IT health of the organization, but existing tools and metrics do not support this range of tasks. To enhance their key tasks, namely situation awareness, incident response, prevention and knowledge sharing, it is critical to understand how people, tools and information sharing co-function in a NOC environment, and what limits their performance--from low-level analysts to their managers and team leads responsible for translating this NOC/SOC value to others in the organization. Beginning at RSA 2014, our research team began to explore how to improve the information available and displayed to NOC / SOC analysts, team leads, and managers. Our interviews and information display usability efforts are focused on recognizing and reducing the gaps that limit NOC/SOC effectiveness and integration with the rest of the organization. The two recurring themes that address the needs of lower- and higher-level analysts, and their managers were: 1) Analysts need to effectively turn data visualizations into usable presentations to increase network situation awareness, and 2) SOC leads and managers need tools and metrics to effectively communicate the status of the organization's network assets, team operations and company's incident response preparedness to the rest of the organization. Besides standard training, analysts are required to engage in the development of expertise and acquiring skills necessary to perform required tasks. Transfer of organizational knowledge to novice analysts efficiently is a vital process to maximize the organization's capabilities at all times. In preliminary interviews, network managers and team leads stated that they are unaware of tools that will allow them to document work procedures and cases to be used as a resource for novice analysts. They express frustration from the need of their continuous involvement in operational level tasks that interrupt their managerial tasks. About the speaker: Barrett S.

Professor Cohen, in some ways, is in an enviable position. He not only teaches and does research in clinical psychology, but he also has had the opportunity for six years to coordinate training in a doctoral program that is in high demand. Thus, akin to the best programs in the country, hundreds of applications are received each year for relatively few spots that are filled each fall with some of the best students nationally and internationally. So Professor Cohen has been engaged in helping to shape the development and implementation of a program that adds great value to his department and the university. In 2011 he took on the added responsibility of serving as chair of the Department of Psychology that supports two American Psychological Association (APA) accredited programs (clinical psychology and counseling psychology), another fully accredited (by the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society) doctoral program in human factors psychology, broad-based undergraduate and graduate programs, and research in experimental psychology with emphases in applied cognition, human factors, and social psychology. In the area of teaching, Professor Cohen is a member of the TTU Teaching Academy, received the President’s Excellence in Teaching Award in 2006, and has successfully directed undergraduate research, even though his programmatic assignments have principally been directed at the doctoral level where he receives outstanding commendations from students. He also has contributed in special ways to the clinical programs in psychology. For example, a high official with the APA underlined Professor Cohen’s contributions to the scholarship of teaching and graduate training in clinical psychology as follows: “As the director of clinical training for the APA accredited doctoral program at Texas Tech – a very demanding and central role for all graduate students in that program . . . he was principal investigator on a major grant from the Department of Health and Human Services [DHHS] for the education and training of doctoral students in . . . clinical and counseling psychology . . . This was a very competitive national grant process, and Dr. Cohen’s leadership in teaching and training to prepare a culturally competent workforce to deliver services to underserved groups addresses a significant national need.” Besides his contributions to the DHHS training grant, he has been the recipient of over $1.6 million in grants from a variety of competitive sources, including the National Institutes of Health, National Institute on Drug Abuse, and National Science Foundation. He also has collaborated recently with colleagues in his own department and researchers at the TTU Health Sciences Center on a State of Texas Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) grant involving tobacco use and its influence on the treatment of cancers. His research on behavioral, cognitive, and psychological corollaries to tobacco use, especially the specific effects of nicotine, has—as his record would indicate—direct implications to health care. One highly respected human behavioral researcher recently commented that Professor Cohen’s research: “Is of the highest quality . . . full of technological and methodological rigor, and replete with important insights that have made an impact in the field.” Service-wise, and as noted above, his contributions to the training components of the psychology department’s clinical programs, have been truly notable, given the extraordinary accreditation compliance and necessary funding issues involved in these programs nationally. Additionally, he has served in several editorial positions of well-recognized journals and is currently assistant editor for the journal Addiction. Overall, Professor Cohen is a faculty member who brings insight, dedication, and perseverance to his responsibilities in teaching, research, and serv
