Driving simulators are a common tool for researching driver behaviour, providing practical,
safe, and controlled environments. Despite their frequent use in research, there is relatively …

Driving safety has been a concern since the first cars appeared on the streets. Driver
inattention has been singled out as a major cause of accidents early on. This is hardly …

Road crashes are the main cause of death of young people in the developed world. The

The behavioral validation of an advanced driving simulator for its use in evaluating speeding
countermeasures was performed for mean speed. Using mature drivers, 24 participants …

The validity of driving simulators for behavioral research is discussed. The concept of validity
is introduced and explained, and a survey of validation studies follows, in the TNO driving …

This book presents a review of research on reaction processes and attention as it has
evolved over the last 40 years in the context of the information processing tradition in …

Abstract Young (18–25) and older (35–50) male drivers were compared in their perception
of driving risk and confidence in driving ability. Both groups provided responses to a …

Driving performance in an instrumented vehicle was compared with performance in a low-
cost, fixed-based driving simulator. Six men and six women drove a freeway route while …

Objective: Driving simulation provides a convenient and safe method for assessing driving
behaviors. Many authors, however, agree that validation is a key component of any study …
