Gary and Judith Olson, in their article "Human-Computer Interaction: Psychological Aspects of the Human Use of Computing," appearing in the Annual Review of Psychology [www.annualreviews.org/doi/10.1146/annurev.psych.54.101601.145044], state that human-computer interaction (HCI) is a multidisciplinary field in which psychology and other social sciences unite with computer science and related technical fields with the goal of making computing systems that are both useful and usable. It is a blend of applied and basic research, both drawing from psychological research and contributing new ideas to it. New technologies continuously challenge HCI researchers with new options, as do the demands of new audiences and uses.
