Effects of an in-vehicle collision avoidance warning system on short- and long-term driving performance
TL;DR: The results showed that drivers tend to overestimate their headway and consequently drive with short and potentially dangerous headways, and that IVCAWSs are a useful tool for educating drivers to stimate headway more accurately.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eye Movements of Younger and Older Drivers
Masha Maltz,David Shinar +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a 2-part study focused on eye movements to explain driving-related visual performance in younger and older persons was conducted, showing that older participants had significantly longer search episodes than younger participants, and that the visual search of older adults was characterized by more fixations and shorter saccades, although the average fixation durations remained the same.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imperfect In-Vehicle Collision Avoidance Warning Systems Can Aid Drivers
Masha Maltz,David Shinar +1 more
TL;DR: Interface played a role in driver reliance on the IVCAWS, with the multimodal interfaces generating least reliance, and the advisability of implementation, even of imperfect systems, for drivers who seek to maintain a safer headway.
Journal ArticleDOI
New alternative methods of analyzing human behavior in cued target acquisition.
Masha Maltz,David Shinar +1 more
TL;DR: Two new methods are introduced here to help define observer behavior trends in cued target acquisition: a quantitative measure of observer search behavior in a temporal sense and a measure of the extent of observer reliance on the cue.

Imperfect in-vehicle collision avoidance warning systems can aid distracted drivers
Masha Maltz,David Shinar +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the efficacy of a type of in-vehicle collision avoidance warning system (IVCAWS) under conditions of driver distraction and found that distracted drivers responded, by increasing their temporal headway, to the less reliable system's alarms, but the warning system at higher reliability levels led to over reliance and ultimately to maintaining shorter headways.
