Modern human resources can be seen to have begun in the scientific management era, most notably in the writings of Katherine M. H. Blackford. Practices descended from scientific management are currently used in offices and in medicine (e.g. managed care) as well. [48]
He Jiankui (China), former associate professor with the Southern University of Science and Technology, was in 2019 sentenced to three years in prison and fined three million yuan (about US$430,000) for illegally carrying out human embryo gene-editing intended for reproduction. [79]
In resilience engineering, successes (things that go right) and failures (things that go wrong) are seen as having the same basis, namely human performance variability. A specific account of that is the efficiency–thoroughness trade-off principle, [18] which can be found on all levels of human activity, in individuals as well as in groups.
Thomas Edison once said, "I have not failed.I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." From show business and athletics to tech and the corporate world, the giants of every industry have one ...
In the field of human factors and ergonomics, human reliability (also known as human performance or HU) is the probability that a human performs a task to a sufficient standard. [1] Reliability of humans can be affected by many factors such as age , physical health , mental state , attitude , emotions , personal propensity for certain mistakes ...
The origins of management science can be traced to operations research, which became influential during World War II when the Allied forces recruited scientists of various disciplines to assist with military operations. In these early applications, the scientists used simple mathematical models to make efficient use of limited technologies and ...
Concerns have been expressed within the scientific community that the general public may consider science less credible due to failed replications. [171] Research supporting this concern is sparse, but a nationally representative survey in Germany showed that more than 75% of Germans have not heard of replication failures in science. [172]
Unethical human experimentation is human experimentation that violates the principles of medical ethics. Such practices have included denying patients the right to informed consent , using pseudoscientific frameworks such as race science , and torturing people under the guise of research.
