Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) emerged in the 1980s as an area of research at the intersection of computer science, cognitive science, and human factors engineering. Over three decades, HCI has expanded rapidly, drawing in professionals from many disciplines and incorporating diverse concepts. HCI now encompasses several semi-autonomous fields related to human-centered digital technologies. The integration of different approaches from various disciplines into HCI demonstrates how disparate epistemologies and paradigms can be reconciled to form a productive intellectual project.

5. ➤ Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is an area of research and
practice that emerged in the early 1980s, initially as a specialty area
in computer science embracing cognitive science and human factors
engineering. HCI has expanded rapidly and steadily for three
decades, attracting professionals from many other disciplines and
incorporating diverse concepts and approaches. To a considerable
extent, HCI now aggregates a collection of semi-autonomous fields
of research and practice in human-centered informatics. However,
the continuing synthesis of disparate conceptions and approaches
to science and practice in HCI has produced a dramatic example of
how different epistemologies and paradigms can be reconciled and
integrated in a vibrant and productive intellectual project.
