Given that perceptions of harassing behaviors can vary, and that gender may influence one's interpretation of such behaviors, we implemented gender swap in virtual reality (VR) to examine changes in sensitivity to harassment across genders. Participants reported harassing behaviors as more inappropriate when embodying female avatars, regardless of their own gender. Our results suggest that gender swap in VR may raise awareness and narrow the gender gap in harassment perceptions, showing potential of VR-based interventions for immersive workplace training to effectively address biases and promote inclusivity among diversity, equity, and inclusion training. Our study also shows the potential of VR to simulate diverse scenarios and perspectives for tailored training experiences that cater to the specific needs and challenges of different occupational settings.</p>","PeriodicalId":73332,"journal":{"name":"IISE transactions on occupational ergonomics and human factors","volume":" ","pages":"79-91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142523785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our work challenges the common practice of ergonomists and human factors practitioners to analyze task demands based on one representative posture. We recommend practitioners instead consider variability in adopted postures, as captured by monitoring worker kinematics over the course of a day. The sensitivity of joint demands to small postural changes also underscores the need for using reliable kinematic measurement tools in the field, since results from ergonomic analyses and consequently decision-making can be susceptible to large discrepancies despite small differences in postural inputs.</p>","PeriodicalId":73332,"journal":{"name":"IISE transactions on occupational ergonomics and human factors","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143469912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent research has proposed exoskeletons as potential solutions in reducing the risk of musculoskeletal disorders among surgeons, but no studies have addressed the neck forward postures (opposite of overhead work), a unique ergonomic neck risk, commonly required during live, open surgery. <b>Purpose:</b> We explored the effectiveness of a passive neck-support exoskeleton during live veterinary surgical procedures with experienced surgeons. <b>Methods:</b> We employed a within-subject crossover design involving surgeons who participated in procedures across specialties including soft tissue and orthopedics. Participants performed entire surgeries with and without a front head posture support prototype exoskeleton, and they completed pre- and post-surgical surveys to assess MSS and perceived effort. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was used to compare median values of MSS and the perceived effort of each participant when they operated with and without the exoskeleton. <b>Results:</b> We collected data during 28 procedures involving eight surgeons, with each subject performing at least one surgery with (intervention) and at least one surgery without (control) the exoskeleton (randomized order). The number of control and intervention cases for each participant was balanced. We found that the difference in neck stiffness before and after surgery was greater in the control surgeries compared to when using the exoskeleton intervention. Increases in neck pain and neck stiffness were only observed in control cases, whereas no participant reported increased neck pain or neck stiffness when the exoskeleton was used. <b>Conclusion:</b> Our results indicate that a passive forward head posture support exoskeleton is a promising intervention for reducing the risk of MSS in live surgical procedures.</p>","PeriodicalId":73332,"journal":{"name":"IISE transactions on occupational ergonomics and human factors","volume":" ","pages":"32-39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142514069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
