The document discusses the responsibility of designers regarding ergonomics, anthropometrics, and society. It defines ergonomics as the fit between humans and machines/environments. Anthropometrics is the study of human body measurements, which designers use to describe target populations for products through percentile studies. Percentile studies analyze how a population is distributed, with many products designed for the 5th to 95th percentiles. The distribution can be skewed if the sample is not fully representative.
