  1. 1. Understanding attention selection in driving: From limited capacity to adaptive behaviour

    Author : Johan A Skifs Engström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; driver distraction; expectancy; working memory load; adaptive driver behaviour; accident analysis; driving performance; Attention;

    Abstract : Accident analysis studies have consistently identified attention-related failures as key factors behind road crashes. However, less is known about how such failures lead to accidents. READ MORE

  2. 2. Keeping Eye and Mind on the Road

    Author : Trent Victor; Claes von Hofsten; John Wann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Vision; Eye-movements; Driving; Attention; Distraction; Ventral stream; Dorsal stream; Road safety; Traffic crashes; Evaluation methodology; Psykologi; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to understanding and counteracting the primary contributing factor in traffic crashes: inattention. Foremost, it demonstrates the fundamental importance of proactive gaze in the road centre area for action guidance in driving. READ MORE

  3. 3. Drivers’ response to attentional demand in automated driving

    Author : Alberto Morando; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vehicle automation; naturalistic data; human factors.; driving simulator data; visual behavior; response process; Attention;

    Abstract : Vehicle automation can make driving safer; it can compensate for human impairments that are recognized as the leading cause of crashes. Vehicle automation has become a central topic in transportation and human factors research. READ MORE

  4. 4. A model of attention selection in driving

    Author : Johan A Skifs Engström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; driver modelling; adaptive behaviour; Driver inattention; attention selection; accident analysis; biased competition; driver error; biased competition; driver distraction;

    Abstract : Inattention is one of the most common factors contributing to road crashes. However, the basic mechanisms behind inattention and how it leads to crashes are still relatively poorly understood. READ MORE

  5. 5. Visual response to attentional demand in increasing levels of automation: A situated approach

    Author : Alberto Morando; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; real-world driving; naturalistic data; human factors; automation; visual behavior; driving demand; Attention;

    Abstract : Introduction: Adaptive cruise control (ACC) is a system that automates the longitudinal control of the vehicle, and maintains safety margins to a lead vehicle. ACC has been shown to have positive safety effects in reducing the exposure to critical situations. READ MORE
