About this title

Synopsis

Through the course of his long and distinguished career, Donald Broadbent has made major and lasting contributions to the field of applied psychology. This book brings together many other leaders in the field who describe the impact of Broadbent's work on their own investigations and how his insights have resulted in the successful scientific endeavors of other researchers. Broadbent's immensely important and varied body of work on attentional control of complex tasks, conscious awareness, stress, and the influences attention and selection have upon perceptual processes is paid detailed tribute. The book is a collection of authoritative, informative reviews as well as an homage to one of the most significant researchers in experimental psychology. It will be of great interest to researchers and students in applied psychology, including those specializing in information processing, human-computer interactions, and industrial/organizational psychology.
