該期刊的主要目標(biāo)是出版在這個日益重要的研究領(lǐng)域內(nèi)開發(fā)的學(xué)術(shù)論文 - 從人類操作者和居住者的角度出發(fā)，管理安全，有效的航空航天系統(tǒng)。幾個不同的學(xué)科對其內(nèi)容作出了重大貢獻，使其在性質(zhì)和范圍上具有真正的跨學(xué)科性。這些領(lǐng)域包括工程和計算機科學(xué)，心理學(xué)，教育和生理學(xué)等。

The primary goal of this journal is the publication of scholarly papers developed within this increasingly important field of study--the development and management of safe, effective aerospace systems from the standpoint of the human operators and occupants. Several divergent academic disciplines contribute heavily to its contents, making it truly interdisciplinary in nature and scope. These fields include, to name a few, engineering and computer science, psychology, education, and physiology.
