Andries Sanders

[1] In 1957 Sanders started working at the Institute for Perception RVO-TNO (Dutch: Instituut voor Zintuigfysiologie) and became the first psychologist employed there.

[14] Sanders' published research is characterised by a close relationship between basic and applied ergonomic questions.

[16] Another research theme was the analysis of choice reactions, inspired by the Additive Factors Method developed by Saul Sternberg in the 1960s.

[17] In this work application was evident in his studies on the effects of psychopharma and sleep deprivation on choice reaction processes; this led to his most quoted publication "Towards a model of stress and Human performance".

[18] Sanders also worked on short-term memory, basic as well as applied in situations where people are required to briefly remember a sequence of letters or digits.
