Attention selection and task interference in driving : an action-oriented view Engström, Johan ; Markkula, Gustav ; Victor, Trent

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: Göteborg Chalmers University of Technology, 2009Description: 16 sSubject(s): Online resources: Notes: Presented at First international conference on driver distraction and inattention (DDI 2009), Gothenburg, Sweden, September 28-29, 2009 Abstract: A major limitation in existing approaches to attention selection in driving research is a lack of focus on driving as an active process, strongly driven by task goals and context. This paper outlines an attention selection model which is action-oriented and intended to capture real world driving situations. Based on this model, three main types of task interference in driving are proposed. Implications of the action-oriented view for the design of driver behaviour studies and automotive human machine interfaces are discussed.

Presented at First international conference on driver distraction and inattention (DDI 2009), Gothenburg, Sweden, September 28-29, 2009

A major limitation in existing approaches to attention selection in driving research is a lack of focus on driving as an active process, strongly driven by task goals and context. This paper outlines an attention selection model which is action-oriented and intended to capture real world driving situations. Based on this model, three main types of task interference in driving are proposed. Implications of the action-oriented view for the design of driver behaviour studies and automotive human machine interfaces are discussed.
