Profesor Sommerich: "Es un honor de servir como el editor invitado para este primero de dos números especiales de WORK: A Journal of Prevention, Assessment and Rehabilitation que se centran en cuestiones de ergonomía relativas a los jóvenes. Este número está dedicado a la memoria de Cheryl Bennett, cuya pasión y profesión se fusionó en sus esfuerzos por educar a los padres, maestros, administradores escolares, y sus colegas ergonomistas acerca de la importancia de la aplicación de principios de la ergonomía al trabajo de los niños y el diseño de ambientes de aprendizaje. Los artículos de este número ofrecen una interesante visión transversal de la investigación actual sobre los jóvenes y la ergonomía, de autores de todo el mundo".
