PLATO, ARTIS I.GAMBREL, WILLIAM DAVIDArtis I. Plato:is Head of the Design Work Study/ Shipboard Manning/Human Factors Engineering Section
Systems Engineering and Analysis Branch Naval Ship Engineering Center (NAVSEC). He graduated from the City College of New York in 1956 receiving his Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering degree. Following this he started work at the New York Naval Shipyard in the Internal Combustion Engine and Cargo Elevator Section. During 1957 and 1958 he was called up for active duty with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and served in Europe with a Construction Engineer Battalion. After release from active duty he returned to the shipyard where he remained until 1961 when he transferred to the Naval Supply Research and Development Facility Bayonne New Jersey. Initially he was in charge of an Engineering Support Test Group and the drafting services for the whole Facility. Later he became a Project Engineer in the Food Services Facilities Branch with duties that included planning and designing new afloat and ashore messing facilities for the Navy. In 1966 he transferred to NAVSEC as a Project Engineer in the Design Work Study Section and in this capacity worked on selected projects and manning problems for new construction and also developed a computer program (Manpower Determination Model) that makes accurate crew predictions for feasibility studies. In 1969 he became Head of the Section. He has been active in the U.S. Army Reserve since his release from active duty and his duties have included command of an Engineer Company various Staff positions and his present assignment as Operations Officer for a Civil Affairs Group.

Despite voluminous research on mental disorders conducted on several levels with numerous variables. other potentially significant variables often are implied but seldom investigated. Most non-organically oriented studies have dealt with psychological variables. research investigating socio-cultural variables has paid particular attention to social status. This paper suggests that investigations of socio-economic aspects of mental disorders — especially when directed toward etiology — are implicitly concerned with value systems, a related concept. But since value systems are more abstract than socio-economic status, a more easily operationalized intermediate variable — yet one more closely representing value systems — may be useful. Ethnicity is suggested for this purpose.

Field research suggests that the impact of office automation upon job satisfaction varies depending on whether affected job aspects are intrinsic or contextual, whether the employees are in electronic data-processing departments which gain work tasks or in other affected departments that lose tasks, whether the computer is of large or medium size, and on several other circumstances. Office employees think the broad impact of office automation is to eliminate jobs and regard the methods changes as temporarily disruptive, but they often welcome change and rarely reject mechanization as such. Attitudes toward change appear to depend on the ability of the individual to deal effectively with change and on the skill with which the organization manages the change. Studies of factory automation suggest that automated plants are preferred as work places to less advanced plants, although they provide important sources of dissatisfaction. The sources of satisfaction and dissatisfaction vary over the course of adjustment to automation. Automation may affect the significance of work in our society by changing job content, redistributing employment opportunities, or decreasing working hours. Its effect will probably be a decrease in the importance of work and a continuation of the trend toward a leisure-oriented society.
