IISE Transactions on Occupational Ergonomics and Human Factors
IISE Transactions on Occupational Ergonomics and Human Factors is the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers' quarterly for research on work and the people who do it, published by Taylor & Francis in London. Its 2025 Journal Impact Factor is 1.9, ranked Q3 at 15 of 24 in ERGONOMICS on the Emerging Sources Citation Index.《工业与系统工程师学会职业工效学与人因汇刊》是工业与系统工程师学会的季刊,研究劳动中的人与作业系统,由 Taylor & Francis 在伦敦出版。2025 年影响因子为 1.9,在 ERGONOMICS 类目列 Q3,排名 15/24,收录于 Emerging Sources Citation Index。
Two traits separate it from older ergonomics journals. The output is small, thirty articles in the 2025 count against 579 citations to the whole run, and the readership is split by design between laboratory researchers and practitioners on the floor.该刊与老牌工效学期刊有两处不同,一是体量小,2025 年统计为 30 篇论文,全刊累计被引 579 次,二是读者有意分成实验室研究者与一线从业者两半。
Scope
- The stated aim is to improve human-system performance and to protect health and safety, with a primary emphasis on people at work rather than on equipment or process alone.宗旨写明要提升人机系统绩效,并守住健康与安全,重心落在劳动中的人,设备与流程本身居次。
- A second commitment is information transfer, moving findings between researchers and practitioners in occupational ergonomics and human factors so that laboratory results reach the workplace.另一条承诺是信息传递,把职业工效学与人因领域的发现从研究者手里送到从业者手里,让实验室结果落到工作现场。
- Theory, technology, application and practice of occupational ergonomics and human factors are named as the knowledge the journal sets out to compile and disseminate across its volumes.职业工效学与人因的理论、技术、应用与实践,被列为刊物要汇集并传播的知识,贯穿各卷。
- Physical ergonomics carries the largest share, from manual materials handling, lifting and carrying to repetitive exertion, working posture and the musculoskeletal disorders that follow from them.体力工效学占比最大,手工搬运、提举与抬运、重复用力、作业姿势,以及由此引发的肌肉骨骼疾患,都在其中。
- Cognitive work is treated with equal seriousness, covering mental workload, attention and vigilance, decision making under time pressure, human error and the design of information displays.认知作业同样受重视,脑力负荷、注意与警觉、时限压力下的决策、人的差错,以及信息显示的设计,各成一题。
- Organizational ergonomics brings work design, shift scheduling, job rotation, psychosocial load, teamwork and the arrangement of tasks across a shift or a season.组织工效学带来工作设计、班次安排、岗位轮换、心理社会负荷、团队协作,以及任务在一班或一季之内的编排。
- Human-machine interaction appears through controls, displays, automation, robots and collaborative robots, with an interest in how authority is divided between operator and machine.人机交互经由操纵器、显示器、自动化、机器人与协作机器人出现,关注操作者与机器之间如何分配权限。
- Occupational health and safety enters as intervention, with exposure assessment, risk assessment methods, protective equipment, injury prevention programmes and the evaluation of what actually reduced harm.职业健康与安全以干预的面目进入,暴露评估、风险评估方法、防护装备、伤害预防方案,以及究竟哪一类措施真的减少了伤害,都在评估之列。
- Measurement is a standing interest, so wearable sensors, motion capture, electromyography, physiological monitoring and field instrumentation all find a place in the submitted work.测量是常设兴趣,可穿戴传感器、动作捕捉、肌电、生理监测与现场仪器,在来稿里都有位置。
- Biomechanics and simulation follow, including musculoskeletal modelling, digital human modelling and the reconstruction of real work tasks inside a virtual environment.生物力学与仿真随之而来,肌肉骨骼建模、数字人体建模,以及把真实作业任务在虚拟环境中重建,都属此列。
- The workforce is treated as uneven, so ageing workers, workers with disabilities, return to work after injury and individual differences in capacity and tolerance are all open subjects.劳动者被视为并不齐整的一群,老龄劳动者、残障劳动者、伤后复工,以及能力与耐受度上的个体差异,都是开放题目。
- Sector coverage runs through manufacturing, construction, healthcare, warehousing and logistics, agriculture, mining, aviation and office work, the setting shaping which method is chosen.行业覆盖制造、建筑、医疗、仓储与物流、农业、采矿、航空与办公,场景不同,方法的选择也跟着不同。
- Method is not prescribed. Field studies, laboratory experiments, analytical models, systematic reviews, case reports, viewpoints and letters to the editor are all admissible forms.方法不作限定,现场研究、实验室实验、解析模型、系统综述、案例报告、观点文章与读者来信,都是可用的体裁。
- Multidisciplinary work is encouraged in explicit terms, and submissions from practitioners are invited as case reports, emerging issues, applications and correspondence rather than left to academics.多学科研究受到明确鼓励,从业者的来稿以案例报告、新现问题、应用报告与通信的形式被邀请,版面不只留给学院中人。
- Technology aimed at improving human-system performance is a named strand, which is how exoskeletons, extended reality, unmanned aircraft and sensing systems enter the pages.以改善人机系统绩效为目标的技术被单列为一脉,外骨骼、扩展现实、无人驾驶航空器与传感系统因此进入版面。
History
- The title is younger than its volume numbers suggest. Volume 1 appeared in 2013 as IIE Transactions on Occupational Ergonomics and Human Factors, under the institute's earlier name.刊名比卷号看起来要年轻。第 1 卷于 2013 年以 IIE Transactions on Occupational Ergonomics and Human Factors 之名问世,那时的学会仍用旧名。
- Four volumes carried the IIE name, from 2013 to 2016, and each year held four numbers, though from 2014 one of them was a combined double, so the quarterly rhythm dates from the first volume rather than from the rename.IIE 之名下共出四卷,从 2013 年到 2016 年,每年四个期号,2014 年起其中一个由两期合为一册,季刊的节奏从第 1 卷就已定下,不待更名。
- The society renamed itself the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers in 2016, and the journal followed a year later, taking the present title from volume 5 in 2017.学会于 2016 年改称工业与系统工程师学会,刊物次年随改,自 2017 年第 5 卷起用现名。
- Numbering did not restart. Volume 5 opens the 2017 year on the same sequence, and articles from that volume still carry digital object identifiers built on the old print identifier.卷号没有重起。第 5 卷自 2017 年接续编号,那一卷的文章在数字对象标识符里仍沿用旧刊的号段。
- The arithmetic is easy to check. Volume 4 is 2016, volume 8 is 2020, volume 13 is 2025, and volume 14 is being filled during 2026.这段算术容易核对,第 4 卷为 2016 年,第 8 卷为 2020 年,第 13 卷为 2025 年,第 14 卷在 2026 年陆续编定。
- Taylor & Francis took the publishing side, and the national library records the imprint for the present title as London, Taylor & Francis Group, from 2017 onward.出版事务由 Taylor & Francis 承接,国家医学图书馆把现名的出版项记为伦敦的 Taylor & Francis Group,起于 2017 年。
- The journal is issued for the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers, a society founded in 1948 as the American Institute of Industrial Engineers and still the owning body.刊物为工业与系统工程师学会而办,该学会 1948 年以美国工业工程师学会之名成立,至今仍是刊物的所有者。
- Indexing came slowly. MEDLINE and PubMed accepted the journal from volume 8, number 1, in 2020, and the earlier volumes are held as selected citations only.索引来得不算早,MEDLINE 与 PubMed 自 2020 年第 8 卷第 1 期起收录,更早的卷次只作选择性引用登记。
- The Emerging Sources Citation Index has carried the title from its early years, so the Journal Impact Factor arrived later than for journals already inside the science citation index.Emerging Sources Citation Index 自早年即收录该刊,影响因子的到来因此晚于早已进入科学引文索引的刊物。
- The 2025 metrics give a Journal Impact Factor of 1.9, a five-year figure of 2.2 and a Journal Citation Indicator of 0.52, at a percentile of 39.6 in the category.2025 年指标给出影响因子 1.9,五年影响因子 2.2,期刊引文指标 0.52,类目百分位为 39.6。
- The recent line reads 1.7 in 2023, 1.8 in 2024 and 1.9 in 2025, a shallow climb on a base of about thirty articles a year, with no jump anywhere in it.近年数字为 2023 年 1.7、2024 年 1.8、2025 年 1.9,是每年约 30 篇基数上的一条缓坡,中间没有跳升。
- Scale stays modest and durable at once. Thirty articles in the 2025 count draw 579 citations to the whole run, and a cited half-life of 6.2 years is long for a title this young.体量小而耐久,2025 年统计的 30 篇论文对应全刊 579 次被引,6.2 年的引用半衰期对这样年轻的刊物算长。
- Open access is an option layered on subscription, and the 2025 gold share of 23.53 per cent reflects author choice rather than a conversion of the whole title.开放获取是叠在订阅之上的可选项,2025 年金色开放获取占比 23.53%,反映作者的选择,全刊并未转为开放获取。
- Special collections appear at intervals, and 2025 brought one on emerging hardware and software technologies for assessing and improving occupational safety and health, introduced by Denny Yu and colleagues.专题辑录间歇出现,2025 年有一组讨论新兴软硬件技术如何评估并改善职业安全与健康,由(Denny Yu)等人作序。
Editors
- The editorial brief is unusual in one respect. Because the aims address researchers and practitioners in the same breath, every decision has to satisfy two readerships with different appetites for method detail.编辑方针有一处特别,宗旨把研究者与从业者并列提出,每个决定都要同时满足两类读者,他们对方法细节的胃口并不相同。
- Coverage has to match the scope, so physical, cognitive and organizational ergonomics each need handling, and a paper on patient handling in a hospital reaches different referees from one on vigilance at a control desk.编委的覆盖须与范围相称,体力、认知与组织三支工效学各需有人把关,医院里的病人搬运研究与控制台前的警觉研究,会落到不同的评审人手里。
- Practitioner genres are written into the menu rather than merely tolerated. Case reports, emerging issues, applications and letters to the editor are named in the aims as welcome submissions.从业者体裁写在门类里,并非勉强容留,案例报告、新现问题、应用报告与读者来信,在宗旨里被点名为欢迎的来稿。
- Analytical, experimental and applications papers sit beside viewpoints, a breadth that forces the editorial side to state criteria case by case instead of applying a single template.解析、实验与应用类论文同观点文章并列,这样的宽度使编辑部只能逐篇说明取舍标准,一套模板难以通用。
- Multidisciplinary investigation is encouraged in the aims, which in practice means referees drawn from engineering, psychology, occupational medicine, design and safety science.多学科研究在宗旨里受鼓励,落到操作上就是从工程、心理学、职业医学、设计与安全科学里挑选评审人。
- Correspondence has a real function here. Letters to the editor give readers a route into print that does not require a full study, and they are listed as a submission type.通信在此有实际作用,读者来信给读者一条不必完成整项研究也能进入版面的路径,它被列为一种投稿类型。
- Special collections are organised from outside the standing board, with guest editors assembling a set around one theme, as the 2025 collection on sensing and assessment technologies shows.专题辑录由常设编委之外的人组织,客座编辑围绕某一主题集稿,2025 年那组测量与评估技术的专辑即是一例。
- Small annual output changes the editorial arithmetic. With about thirty papers a year, a single weak decision weighs more than it would at a journal ten times the size.年发文量小,编辑上的算术随之改变,每年约 30 篇的规模里,一次失当的取舍,分量重于十倍体量的刊物。
- The title's own history sits in the editorial paperwork. Manuscripts that cite the IIE-era volumes have to be matched to current numbering, which editors and the publisher settle as routine business.刊物的旧史落在编辑事务里,引用 IIE 时期卷次的稿件须与现行卷号对应,这件事由编辑部与出版方按常规办妥。
- The journal belongs to a family. The society also issues the larger IISE Transactions and a transactions title in healthcare systems engineering, and editorial standards are kept in step across that group.刊物属于一个家族,学会另有规模更大的 IISE Transactions 与一份医疗系统工程汇刊,编辑尺度在这一组刊物之间保持同步。
