Effects of threat and sleep deprivation on action tendencies and response inhibition.
The ability to control action is crucial for adaptive responding, but may be compromised in
situations involving strong emotions (eg, threat) or when people are deprived of resources …

Intra-individual variability in vagal control is associated with response inhibition under stress
Dynamic intra-individual variability (IIV) in cardiac vagal control across multiple situations is
believed to contribute to adaptive cognition under stress; however, a dearth of research has …

Predicting perceived realism in virtual reality driving simulations using participants' personality traits, heart rate changes, and risk preference
U Ju, S Kim - IEEE Access, 2024 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Virtual reality (VR) has recently been adopted for driving simulations to enhance their
realism and thus improve the validity of the simulation results. However, given that perceived …

How speed impacts threat assessment in lethal force decisions
AT Biggs, KA Pettijohn, S Sherwood - Applied Ergonomics, 2023 - Elsevier
Despite the importance of being both fast and accurate in lethal force decisions, there is little
empirical evidence to identify how speed impacts threat-related decisions and perception …
