An on-road field study was conducted to assess how attention demand changes as a function of auditory display characteristics. Two auditory message set characteristics were manipulated: speech rate (“normal” 125 wpm vs. “time-compressed” 225

Relatively little driver behavior research was conducted prior to the founding of HFES and it only really began to accelerate in the 1960's. Some highway safety pioneers remain active in HFES and their careers illustrate the trajectory of the field i

A series of observations and measurements were made as 21 subjects drove their own vehicles in an assortment of naturalistic backing tasks. The tasks were performed on public roads in real world driving conditions. As the subjects performed the eight

This paper concerns a study aimed at selection of alarm sounds with improved audible performance characteristics for older listeners over current conventional residential smoke detectors. Many current residential smoke detectors possess alarms that h

Current highway design models for required sight distance at stop-sign controlled intersections assume that the perception-reaction time (PRT) required is 2.0 seconds. That is, a 2.0 second interval to perceive, evaluate, decide, and initiate a respo

The time drivers require to react in braking situations underlies many practices in highway design and operations. There is concern whether the perception-reaction time (PRT) values used in current practice adequately meet the requirements of many ol

Drowning is the third leading cause of accidental death for U.S. children under 5 years of age, and the majority of childhood drownings occur in home swimming pools. Self-latching devices on pool gates and house doors represent an environmental strat

This paper concerns the fire safety needs of older people living in private residences. It includes consideration of the limitations of current consumer fire safety products (primarily smoke detectors) and design improvements that better meet the hum

A recent review of driver behavior at rail-highway crossings (Lerner, Ratte', and Walker, 1989) revealed a number of decision making problems faced by motorists as they negotiate the area of an at-grade crossing. It was also noted that many in the sa

About one-third of all public playground equipment injuries are sustained by children under 6 years of age. Injury data indicate that children in this age group are at particular risk of injuries to the head and face. A recent detailed analysis of pl
