Professional Advisory and Consulting Activities:
Consulting editor for 15 scientific journals and 3 publishers; scientific reviewer for 6 governmental and 3 military agencies; research consultant to 2 universities and 4 agencies of the government. As a partner in Human Factors Consultants, I provide for governmental and business clients human factors expertise in areas of product and equipment design and operation, development and evaluation of training programs, performance assessment, risk and accident analyses, and cost/benefit analyses of proposed changes in operations.

Legal Consultation by Human Factors Consultants:
I am a partner with my wife, in our consulting firm, * Consultants. We provide consulting and research services to legal, business and governmental clients. We offer legal expertise in the four [three] areas of: (a) evaluation of eyewitness testimony and identification; (b) memory accuracy and recovery; [and] (c) fingerprint comparison accuracy; and (D) human factors issues of safety, warnings, human error and accident evaluation, equipment design, and training adequacy. Our services include consultation with the client, review of existing research, collection of new research if required, and where needed, expert testimony in court. We have offered expert testimony on factors that affect the accurate encoding of visual information (for example, how accurately can someone with normal vision perceive an event at a given distance under given light levels? What is the likelihood of error in "recognizing" a person later if the event occurred within a specified time frame, with a weapon in evidence?). We have also provided expert testimony on factors that affect the accuracy of retrieval of previously perceived events (for example, what changes in memory may occur as a result of the passage of time, rehearsal of testimony, structure of questions, or introduction of photo or real lineups?) We offer expert testimony on the accuracy of fingerprint comparisons, and the scientific evaluation of fingerprint examiner accuracy and testimony. We have taught seminars for lawyers and for trial judges to assist them in evaluating the criteria governing the challenging of memorial and perceptual testimony in the courtroom. We assist clients representing either defendants or plaintiffs, involved in either civil or criminal cases.

Book and other Scientific Publications:
From 1954 to the present I have published 7 books, 250 scientific articles and chapters on topics in cognitive psychology and human factors, and presented 125 conference and convention presentations.
