These factors of humans may be seen as limitations and capabilities. physical, cognitive and emotional states (such as stress and fatigue).learning domains (such as Bloom’s learning taxonomy) and.behaviours and skills (such as situation awareness, decision making, teamwork, and other ‘non-technical skills’).
cognitive functions (such as attention, detection, perception, memory, judgement and reasoning (including heuristics and biases), decision making – each of these is further divided into sub-categories).This kind of human factors focuses primarily on human characteristics, understood primarily via reductionism. This second post explores another kind of human factors: Factors of Humans.Įar by Simon James CC BY-SA 2.0 What is it? The first post explored human factors as ‘the human factor’. This has brought into focus various differences in the meanings ascribed to ‘human factors’, both within and outside the discipline and profession itself. Cruelty, cursing, alcoholism, and jump scares make this the kind of game the very young and faint of heart should avoid but gamers who enjoy being scared are in for a wild ride.In the first post in this series, I reflected on the popularisation of the term ‘human factors’ and discussion about the topic. At the same time, a truly dark and affecting story is told of one family's terrible destruction. Lighting, sound, and door placement nudge you along while expertly placed visual cues set you up for jump-out-of-your-skin scares.
Soon, you're trapped in a seemingly endless maze where rooms change before your eyes and every closed door fills you with dread. Things start spooky as a violent nighttime thunderstorm rages outside and get increasingly frightening as the house starts to shift and change. The artist's mental state is reflected in the somber, low-lit environments, melancholy piano music, and heartbeat-like cadence of his lurching footsteps. Limping from room to room (the painter's bad leg is indicated in first-person view by a mildly swaying camera) he rummages through drawers, cabinets and closets, trying to understand his role in his own personal tragedy.

I was a little hesitant to let my kid play it due to it maybe scaring her a little too much, but it turned out fine. The game even frightened me a little bit when me and my husband played it the first time around. There is light drinking and some swearing in the game. The game is first person, about a mystery surrounding a murder, and the player is left to explore a haunted house.
One minute you walk into a room, turn around and the door is gone behind you, or the hallways continue in an endless loop. Baby dolls creepily smacking their heads repetitively against things, disturbing (though not inappropriate) paintings, creepy noises and lights going out, etc. There are some jump scares, but the game is mostly psychologically disturbing. It really depends on how your child handles horror.
