Work, publications

 LISANNE  (legal names ELIZABETH ANN)  BAINBRIDGE


Positions held : 


October 1980 - March 1992 (early retirement) :

Reader in Psychology, Department of Psychology, University College London.

3rd year lectures Occupational Psychology.

M Sc Ergonomics course Systems Design.

A department which at that time staunchly defended experimental psychology against any impurity of applied work.  They refused to include the Ironies paper in the department's list of publications. They had to have an occupational psychologist on staff to meet the requirements of the British Psychological Society, and I am happy to say my course influenced career decisions.   


A classic example of someone who makes a wrong career move in their 40s.  Though that was the only type of career advancement I was suited to, I am absolutely the wrong sort of person to take on a leadership or administrative role.

Looking back to before that, all my posts were very fortunate career opportunities, with two especially good periods.


February 1968 - September 1980 :

Lecturer in Psychology, Department of Psychology, University of Reading.

1st year lecture course         Understanding data [statistics].

2nd year lecture courses Skill.

        Industrial Psychology.

        Memory.

        Mathematical Psychology.

3rd year seminar courses Skill (and computer simulation).

        Cognitive Psychology (with Dr. Alan Allport).

Department Timetabler.

With 'tenure' and kind colleagues, some stability came into my life.  The second extra lucky phase of my working life.

During the first long vacations I was able to finish making sense of the steel works data and then write my PhD thesis, examined in 1972.  The techniques and concepts developed for analysing and accounting for those data have formed the basis of much of my writing since then.

My thesis was finished at about the time Winograd published 'Understanding Natural Language'.  That influenced my later thinking, as he described mechanisms for understanding language as building up a wider context of meaning, rather than analysing semantics-free excerpts, or sentences before paragraphs.  It was a relief and encouragement to find someone else who thought the influence of context is paramount.


February 1966 - January 1968 :

Research Assistant with Academic Status, Department of Psychology, University of Bristol.

British Iron and Steel Research Association grant to study the measurement of mental load.

Investigator Dr. R.J. Beishon.    

See papers and reports in 1966, 1967, 1968.

John Beishon led the research grant under which the steel works operator data were collected, and the first analysis done.

I owe him, as he provided a job and somewhere to live when I returned from the States.  And he initiated the steel works study which most of my research career has followed on from, though we were both working within ideas and attitudes provided by Ted Crossman.


August 1964 - January 1966 :

Research Assistant, Department of Industrial Engineering, University of California, Berkeley.

Investigator Prof. E.R.F.W. Crossman

(I also during this time worked towards an M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering.)

a.August 1964 - August 1965 :

Research project on effects of automation on required job skills.

Job analyses in various automated industries, especially steel and baking.


b. September 1965 - January 1966 :     

Research project on investigation of driving skills.     

See paper and report in 1967.


I remember writing an attempted operator simulation in Fortran ! the limitations of which rather put me off computer-based operator modelling.  Basically I was trying to model an essentially analogue process using a digital representation, and if the 'model' did not work there was no way of knowing if it was the model that was at fault, or the contortions it had to go through to try to represent it as a program.


Also testing whether it was possible to simulate a visual dynamic driving environment which changed according the vehicle position, for use in experiments.  It was possible to specify the geometry of what was needed, but of course actually doing it in Fortran wasn’t possible in real time, when the only computing power available was a room sized IBM 360 made of valves which had to be fed with punch cards (and when there was a bug in your program, you had to wait 24hrs for another try).


August 1962 - July 1964 :

Research Assistant, Institute of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford.

Research Project Thought and Decision in Control Skills.

Investigator Dr. E.R.F.W. Crossman, other assistants John Beishon, John Cooke.    

See paper and reports in 1962, 1963, 1964.

My whole career developed from what I learned during this time.  The first extra lucky phase of my working life.

I remember working on two main data collecting projects.  

One was observation of the operator of the Oxford University Press paper mill at Wolvercote.


We also studied the operators of the slab re-heat furnace at Richard, Thomas & Baldwin’s, Llanwern, South Wales.  The 1963 report was not publicly available.  That plant makes a comment on the progress of technology.  RTB was notable at the time (opened 1962) as the first fully automated hot strip mill.  Apart from the slab re-heat furnace, control of which depended on the operators' perceptual skills to judge the temperature of the steel.  The plant was demolished about 40 years later, in 2004, and the area returned to farming land.


October 1960 - July 1962 :

Psychologist, RAF Institute of Aviation Medicine, Farnborough, Hants.

See paper and reports in 1960, 1961, 1962.

I was fortunate to share an office with David Hopkin, and mainly worked as his assistant on studies of radar tracking.  I also wrote a compilation of known ergonomic recommendations, which remained in use for about a decade before it was updated.
