Book Description
In recent years there has been a crescive interest in the science of taxonomy in general, and in behavioral classifications in particular. In the report, past efforts are reviewed in an attempt to assess the 'state-of-the-art' and to provide procedural guidelines for future taxonomic efforts. Approaches to and dilemmas encountered in attempting to develop systems of classification are discussed. Special consideration is given to those systems oriented toward the organization and understanding of information about human task performance. Within this context the taxonomic issues of purpose, descriptive bases, and methodological approaches are discussed in terms of available alternatives. The report leads to the conclusion that behavioral taxonomy is still in its infancy and that truly powerful systems of classification have yet to be developed. The paper suggests how substantive progress may be made by attempting development of a task classification system based upon numerical taxonomic procedures. (Author).

Book Description
The issue of physical resources is one of considerable interest in the field of human resource management, but the solution to such difficulties must depend upon the skills and enterprise of those in positions of management. The purpose of this book, first published in 1975, is to focus upon these skills and upon the issues involved in examining the utilisation of human resources. The concept of human resources is an extremely broad one and there are many relevant disciplines. Each discipline provides information with respect to monitoring, developing or utilising the human resource. The set of papers in this volume will provide a source of reference for a wide range of research worker, practitioners and students in the total sphere of human resources as well as within the various disciplines represented.

Book Description
Many workers in the behavioral sciences and human factors technologies have expressed the need for better classification systems to understand and apply the vast amounts of data acquired about man for the performance of jobs and tasks. Reviews of existing classification systems, reported in previous technical reports in this series, disclosed more expressions of needs for these systems than actual systems in existence. Therefore, as a means for more systematically exploring the issues and options with respect to human performance classification, a heuristic model is presented. With this as a framework the uses of human classification performance systems, their content, and the methods available for their development are each discussed in turn. The report concludes with some recommendations about what the author believes is required if significant progress is to be made in the further development of human performance classification systems.

Book Description
The report briefly describes technical progress during the first year of a five year project to develop and verify a taxonomic system for the classification of human task performance. During this initial year, the major efforts on the project proceeded along four lines of activity: (1) review of previous taxonomic efforts, (2) development of an integrative model, (3) development of provisional classification schemes, and (4) development of a human performance data base. Previous taxonomic efforts were reviewed to provide guidelines and suggest approaches for the development of classification systems. An integrative model was developed to indicate which areas had to be taken into account in the development of a comprehensive task taxonomy. A provisional classification scheme, based on human abilities identified in earlier correlational studies, was developed to indicate the feasibility of using such an approach and to isolate some of the practical problems that might be encountered in the development of a taxonomy. Work on another provisional classification scheme, based on observable characteristics of tasks, has been initiated. The requirements of a human performance data base were defined to provide a resource and a research tool for testing provisional classification systems being developed.
