Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a comprehensive review of symbol training in the past 40 years. Three symbol-training methods (i.e., paired-associate learning, recognition training, recall training) that were commonly used by ergonomists and industrial designers are identified. Factors affecting symbol-training effectiveness are given. Experimental design and analysis for symbol-training effectiveness research are also described. This review would be helpful in formulating research plans and methodology for conducting other symbol-training studies. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
