Abstract
This chapter offers a definition of macroergonomic compatibility concept. For this, firstly, it mentions the different macroergonomic factors and elements existing in literature. Then, the chapter presents the history, goals, and definition of symvatology, a subdiscipline of ergonomics and science of artifact–human interaction. Finally, the chapter provides a definition of macroergonomic compatibility.
