Abstract. The research topic of this paper is the research of the correlative balance between a man-operator and the informative-managing elements in control and managing centers of Electroenergetic Systems and Railway Traffic in Yugoslavia. Three completed units of the research are:
a) Biocybernetic system "man-operator" inside which the anthropometry measures of the operator's body, positions and gestures of the operator's body, the passing capabilities of the operator causes and consequences of stressful situations upon the operator's activity and his work have been researched.
b) Informative-managing system "control and managing center" within which the ergonomic analysis of the means of information display (display plates, video terminals, commanding stands),
c) The accompanying system "working environment", within which the influence of the workplace, lighting and microclimatic conditions in managing centers on correlative functional balance between operator and center's elements has been analyzed.
Key words:   Man-operator, Control center, Working environment

METODOLOGIJA ZA ISTAŽIVANJE LJUDSKIH FAKTORA U CENTRIMA ZA KONTROLU I UPRAVLJANJE AUTOMATIZOVANIM SISTEMIMA
Predmet istraživanja ovog rada je istraživanje međusobne usklađenosti čoveka-operatora i informaciono-upravljačkih elemenata u centrima kontrole i upravljanja elektroprivredom i železnicom Jugoslavije, usmeren na tri zaokružene celine istraživanja i to:
a)  Biokibernetski sistem "čovek-operator" u okviru koga su istraživane antropometrijske mere tela operatora, stavovi i pokreti tela operatora, propusne sposobnosti operatora i radne aktivnosti operatora.
b)  Informaciono-upravljački sistem "centar kontrole i upravljanja" u okviru koga su vršene ergonomske analize sredstava za prikazivanje informacija (prikazne ploče, video terminali i komandni pultovi) i
c)  Prateći sistem "radna sredina" u okviru koga se analizira uticaj radnog prostora, osvetljenosti i mikroklimatskih uslova u centrima kontrole i upravljanja na međusobnu funkcionalnu usklađenost operatora i elemenata centara.
