Our mission
AHFE International supports research that improves the relationship between people, technology, organizations and complex systems. Through the AHFE Discovery Journal and the wider AHFE scholarly ecosystem, we provide a professional route for researchers to communicate work that can improve safety, performance, wellbeing, design and responsible innovation.
Human-centered by design
We value research that begins with the realities of human capabilities, needs and contexts. We welcome contributions across engineering, computing, healthcare, design, management and emerging technologies when the work is grounded in meaningful human outcomes.
Principles that guide us
Scientific rigor, editorial independence, respectful peer review, research integrity, accessibility of knowledge, transparency of process and international collaboration shape the way AHFE approaches scholarly publishing.
Research that travels across disciplines
Human-centered innovation depends on integrating behavioral evidence with the realities of engineered, organizational and digital environments. We encourage manuscripts that communicate the conditions under which a finding holds, not merely optimistic statements about technological potential.
