Abstract

FEATURE AT A GLANCE: School is the place where permanent habits of sitting are formed and settled. Considering this, it is fundamental that school furniture fulfills two fundamental variables: furniture Form and Dimensions. However, there are some issues that need to be addressed to implement the knowledge of anthropometry, ergonomics, and design related to school furniture. The intervention must have a systemsoriented perspective, following the principles of systems ergonomics or macro-ergonomics. Also, it is important to involve the different stakeholders and give a clear message related to the impact in productivity and well-being. Finally new standards need to considered dynamic sitting.

学校家具与人体工程学的契合——理论与实践的差距

一眼望去：学校是一个养成和养成久坐习惯的地方。考虑到这一点，学校家具满足两个基本变量是至关重要的：家具形式和尺寸。然而，要实现与学校家具相关的人体测量、人体工程学和设计知识，还有一些问题需要解决。干预必须具有面向系统的视角，遵循系统工效学或宏观工效学的原则。此外，重要的是让不同的利益相关者参与进来，并就生产力和福祉的影响发出明确的信息。最后，新标准需要考虑动态坐姿。

期刊介绍： Ergonomics in Design: The Quarterly of Human Factors Applications is intended to serve the needs of practicing human factors/ergonomics professionals who are concerned with the usability of products, systems, tools, and environments. It provides up-to-date demonstrations of the importance of HF/E principles in design and implementation. Articles, case studies, anecdotes, debates, and interviews focus on the way in which HF/E research and methods are applied in the design, development, prototyping, test and evaluation, training, and manufacturing processes of a product or system.
