Psychological predictors of problem mobile phone use
TL;DR: This study supports community concerns about mobile phone use, identifies groups that should be targeted in any intervention campaigns, and supports extraverts and young drivers in automobile accidents.

"How Long Does It Take to Stop?" Methodological Analysis of Driver Perception-Brake Times
TL;DR: The most important variable is driver expectation, which affects RTs by a factor of 2.5, and these times are modulated somewhat by other factors, including driver age and gender, cognitive load, and urgency.

A meta-analysis of the effects of cell phones on driver performance
TL;DR: A comprehensive meta-analysis of the effects of cell phones on driving performance was performed, finding that observed performance decrements probably underestimate the true behavior of drivers with mobile phones in their own vehicles.

TL;DR: A leading journal in human factors/ergonomics as discussed by the authors focuses on understanding people in relation to machines, systems, and environments; highlights fundamental human capabilities, limitations, and tendencies, as well as the basics of human performance; and promotes improvements in human-system interface that lead to safer and more effective uses.

Examining the Impact of Cell Phone Conversations on Driving Using Meta-Analytic Techniques
TL;DR: In this article, the performance costs associated with cell phone use while driving were assessed meta-analytically using standardized measures of effect size along five dimensions and concluded that these costs were borne primarily by reaction time tasks.

Paced Auditory Serial-Addition Task: A Measure of Recovery from Concussion
TL;DR: The paced auditory serial-addition test, a measure of rate of information processing, is presented as a convenient test for estimating individual performance during recovery and procedures for administration and control data are given.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association between Cellular-Telephone Calls and Motor Vehicle Collisions
TL;DR: The use of cellular telephones in motor vehicles is associated with a quadrupling of the risk of a collision during the brief time interval involving a call, suggesting that having a cellular telephone may have had advantages in the aftermath of an event.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of mobile telephoning on driving performance
TL;DR: A significant effect of telephoning while driving as opposed to normal driving is shown on the effort subjectively measured by an effort scale and objectively measured by heartrate indices and on some of the measured parameters of driving performance.
