1.

Mental workload while driving: effects on visual search, discrimination, and decision making.

The effects of mental workload on visual search and decision making were studied in real traffic conditions with 12 participants who drove an instrumented car. Mental workload was manipulated by having participants perform several mental tasks while ...

2.

Mental fatigue and the control of cognitive processes: effects on perseveration and planning.

We tested whether behavioural manifestations of mental fatigue may be linked to compromised executive control, which refers to the ability to regulate perceptual and motor processes for goal-directed behaviour. In complex tasks, compromised executive ...

3.

The influence of mental fatigue on facial EMG activity during a simulated workday.

The present study investigated whether facial EMG measures are sensitive to the effects of fatigue. EMG activity of the corrugator and frontalis muscles was recorded during and after a simulated workday. Fatigue was evaluated in four ways: (a) the ...

4.

Shift work, safety and productivity.

The arguments in favour of introducing shift work clearly depend on productivity and safety being maintained at an acceptable level. However, the evidence reviewed in this paper clearly indicates that both productivity and safety may be compromised at ...

5.

Promoting attentional health: importance to womens lives.

Promoting attentional health is an important opportunity to support and empower women to actively participate in their own health care and function effectively in multiple roles. Attention, the ability to focus or concentrate, is a necessary cognitive ...

6.

Effect of magnitopuncture on sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve activities in healthy drivers--assessment by power spectrum analysis of heart rate variability.

The object of this study was to assess the effects of magnitopuncture applied to Dazhui (DU14) point and Neiguan (PC6) points on sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve activities by power spectrum analysis of heart rate variability in healthy drivers ...

7.

Multimodal feedback: an assessment of performance and mental workload.

Multimodal interfaces offer great potential to humanize interactions with computers by employing a multitude of perceptual channels. This paper reports on a novel multimodal interface using auditory, haptic and visual feedback in a direct manipulation ...

8.

Evidence of a reduced home advantage when a team moves to a new stadium.

Home advantage is well documented for professional baseball, basketball and ice hockey in North America. One of the possible causes of this advantage is familiarity with the local playing facility. This was investigated and quantified in an analysis of ...

9.

Eye-tracking measures and human performance in a vigilance task.

BACKGROUND: Visual scanning is necessary for aviation safety and similar vigilance tasks, but little is known about its characteristics in such tasks, including possible changes with alertness and fatigue. We explored concurrent eye movements and human ...

10.

Task-induced fatigue states and simulated driving performance.

States of fatigue are implicated in driver impairment and motor vehicle accidents. This article reports two studies investigating two possible mechanisms for performance impairment: (1) loss of attentional resources; and (2) active regulation of matching ...
