DR. Yuval Bitan
I study the interaction between human operators and technology, seeking ways to make technology more accessible and easy to use. My studies examine theoretical models in lab experiments and field observations, investigating clinicians' perceptions, information processing, and decision making. Mixed methods are applied in my research, including ethnographic observations, interviews, questionnaires, and simulations. In collaboration with a few health organizations we collect both quantitative and qualitative data in field studies, that contribute both to theory and to practice. |
