Abstract: As human performance technology (HPT) has evolved, numerous documented definitions of the field have been proposed but none has achieved authoritative status. Content analysis of 31 published definitions using the criteria of comprehensiveness, nontautologicality, insider acceptance, and appeal to outsiders reveals that the current HPT definitional statements are not preferable based on the definition review criteria.
