Ergonomics and Typing Injury FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about ergonomics and associated injuries and their treatment

This FAQ about Ergonomics and Typing Injuries was compiled and written by Dan Wallach dwallach@cs.princeton.edu with numerous contributions by others.

The Typing Injury FAQ (frequently asked questions) is a multipart document targetted at computer users suffering at the hands of their equipment. You'll find pointers to resources all across the net, general information on injuries, and detailed information on numerous adaptive products. The full documents are posted on a number of newsgroups such as sci.med.occupational as well as available via FTP and WWW servers across the globe.

This document cites recent changes to the Typing Injury FAQ as well as other online information. Due to its (hopefully) shorter length, this document gets a much wider audience of mailing lists and such.
