Objective: This is a secondary study following the primary study that reviewed the Journal of Korean Society for Ergonomics' existing research on user interface (UI), and provides primary data for UI research in the field of ergonomics by organizing the research objectives, research methods, and research results. Background: Because the term UI includes users, UI-related research has been actively conducted in the field of ergonomics, which naturally deals with human characteristics. Therefore, much UI-related research has been conducted in the Journal of the Korean Society for Ergonomics, an orthodox research institute for ergonomics in Korea. However, 2022 marks the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Korean Ergonomics Society, and no systematic research on UI field research has been conducted within the journal until 40 years have passed since its founding. Method: The 97 documents analyzed in the primary study were used as is. Following the analysis of research-related keywords, UI research targets, and UI types in the first study, this study summarized the research objective, methods used, and research results. Results: The most common research activities included UI evaluation, design, and analysis. Moreover, the most common research method was to conduct typical ergonomics experiments based on experimental plans. In addition, the most common research results included presenting design guidelines and designing System UI. Conclusion: We were able to derive answers to the three key questions presented in this second study, following the first study. In addition, the meaning of each result was analyzed by adding the researcher's interpretation to representative parts of each result. Application: This presents comprehensive data on UI (user interface) research published in the Journal of the Korean Society of Ergonomics, and will serve as an important reference for future related research directions.
