Reviews

The research projects are thorough and rigorous, using the experimental approach often supplemented by surveys and focus group discussions. Each research topic is introduced with a thorough literature review that is also critically evaluated...The totality of research issues investigated is impressive and useful. This includes important topics such as the effect of aging on drivers use of intelligent support systems in view of changes in driver cognition (memory decline), perception in several modalities (tactile, vision, auditory), and slower reaction times (e.g., lane change initiation).

Author Information

Alan Stevens is Chief Research Scientist and Research Director, Transportation, at the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL), in the UK, where he has been working on the application of new technology to transport for 25 years. He is an internationally recognised expert in human-machine interaction (HMI) in the driving environment and his consultancy activities focus on providing advice on policy and interoperability issues to Government, developing research programs and carrying out specific technical and human factors studies in Intelligent Transport Systems. He is Editor-in-Chief of The Journal of Intelligent Transport Systems. Corinne Brusque is Research Manager and Scientific Director in charge of evaluation at Ifsttar (French Institute of Science and Technology for Transport, Development and Networks). Her main research topics concern the factors affecting in-vehicle technology adoption, drivers' exposure to distraction related to in-vehicle technologies and the impact of in-vehicle technologies on drivers' behaviour. Josef Krems is Professor of Cognitive and Industrial Psychology at Chemnitz University of Technology. His current research projects focus on three areas: traffic and transport (safety, driver assistance, green driving and sustainability); human factors (human-machine interaction, usability); and user acceptance.
