Abstract
An HFES Task Force is considering if, when, which, and how HFES research publications should require the citation of relevant standards, policies, and practices. To support the Task Force activities, papers are being written about how to find relevant standards produced by various development organizations (such as the Society of Automotive Engineers, SAE) and the content of those standards. This paper describes which groups at SAE produce standards, with a focus on the SAE Safety and Human Factors Steering Committee. This paper also gives a step-by-step description of how to find standards on the SAE web site and obtain copies. In addition, in order to contextualize content, example sections from 1 standard, SAE J2944, Operational Definitions of Driving Performance Measures and Statistics, are provided. Also included are references to other materials on finding standards and standards-related teaching materials.
