A new model for behavioural adaption in distracted driving

(2017) A new model for behavioural adaption in distracted driving. PhD by Publication, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

There are decades of research suggesting that drivers can compensate for distraction through behavioural adaptations such as selecting lower driving speeds, increasing road environment monitoring, decreasing lane changes, and avoiding overtaking. This research has confirmed the value of a new model for behavioural adaptation in distracted driving in explaining these phenomena. As such, the objective of this research was to characterize and evaluate the behavioural adaptation of mobile phone distracted drivers. A wide range of findings were generated, e.g. that behavioural adaptations are initiated by drivers and are not a de facto consequence of mobile phone use.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
