The purpose of this paper is to propose foundations for a theory situation awareness based on the analysis interactions between agents (i.e. both human and non-human) in subsystems. This approach may help promote better understanding technology-mediated interaction systems, as well helping formulation hypotheses predictions concerning distributed awareness. It proposed that within system each hold their own awareness, which be very different from (although compatible with) other agents....
The concept of situation awareness (SA) is frequently described in the literature. Theoretically, it remains predominantly an individual construct and majority models presented describe SA from perspective. In comparison, team has received less attention. complex, collaborative environments thus a challenge for human factors community, both relation to development theoretical perspectives valid measures guidelines system, training procedure design. This article presents review critique what...

This paper proposes a new theory to account for the effects of underload on performance. Malleable attentional resources posits that capacity can change size in response changes task demands. As such, performance decrements associated with mental be explained by lack appropriate resources. These proposals were explored driving simulator experiment. Vehicle automation was manipulated at 4 levels, and workload assessed secondary task. Eye movements also recorded determine whether varied...
This paper reports on the evaluation of adaptive cruise control (ACC) from a psychological perspective. It was anticipated that ACC would have an effect upon psychology driving, i.e. make driver feel like they less control, reduce level trust in vehicle, drivers situationally aware, but workload might be reduced and driving stressful. Drivers were asked to drive simulator under manual conditions. Analysis variance techniques used determine effects (i.e. amount traffic) feedback degree...
Rear-end collisions are often quoted as being a major cause of road traffic accidents. In response to this, great deal ergonomics research effort has been directed towards the analysis brake reaction times. However, engineering solution develop advanced systems for longitudinal control, which, it is argued, will mitigate problem rear-end collisions. So far, though, there have few empirical studies determine how times be affected by such vehicle automation. This paper presents literature...
Maintaining student concentration in lectures has long been a challenge for lecturers. Pedagogical research consistently finds drop attention between 10 and 30 minutes into the lecture, which associated with passive nature of standard format, consequences learning approaches outcomes. A similar phenomenon observed ergonomics some time, known as vigilance decrement. In this article, we present an exploratory effort to detect decrement four different lecture formats, by adopting measurement...
Probiotics are live, nonpathogenic microorganisms known to have a positive effect on the host by improving natural balance of gut microbiota. The objective this study was determine effects administering probiotics (Primalac W/S) in ovo hatchability, early post-hatch performance, and intestinal immune-related gene expression broiler chicks. At embryonic day eighteen, 360 Cobb 500 eggs were injected with sterile water (sham), 1 × 105, 106, or 107 (P1, P2, P3 respectively) probiotic bacteria....
Abstract Vehicle automation is highly likely to be in service by the end of this century. While there are undoubtedly some benefits associated with such systems, concerns also. This paper presents a review studies addressing adaptive cruise control and active steering systems. These suggest that may cause for concern. They show reduction mental workload, within secondary task paradigm, forms problems reclaiming vehicle failure scenarios. It suggested more research development effort needs...
There is considerable evidence in the ergonomics literature that automation can significantly reduce operator mental workload. Furthermore, reducing workload not necessarily a good thing, particularly cases where level already manageable. This raises issue of underload, which be at least as detrimental to performance overload. However, although it widely recognized underload performance, there are very few attempts explain why this may case. It argued paper that, until need for human...
Abstract Previous research has found that vehicle automation systems can reduce driver mental workload, with implications for attentional resources be detrimental to performance. The present paper considers how the development of automaticity within driving task may influence performance in underload situations. Driver skill and were manipulated a simulator, four levels each variable. Mental workload was assessed using secondary measure eye movements recorded infer capacity. effects on quite...
The purpose of this paper is to develop a recently proposed framework human–machine cooperation (Hoc, J.M., 2001. Towards cognitive approach in dynamic situations. International Journal Human–Computer Studies, 54, 509–540) and apply it the domain in-car automation. Previous models automation (e.g. Sheridan, T.B. Verplanck, W.L., 1978. Human computer control undersea teleoperators. Cambridge, MA: MIT Man–Machine Systems Laboratory) delineate roles human machine task-based manner primarily...
Alcohol-induced hangover, defined by a series of symptoms, is the most commonly reported consequence excessive alcohol consumption. Alcohol hangovers contribute to workplace absenteeism, impaired job performance, reduced productivity, poor academic achievement, and may compromise potentially dangerous daily activities such as driving car or operating heavy machinery. These socioeconomic consequences health risks hangover are much higher when compared various common diseases other risk...
Necrotic enteritis (NE) continues to present major challenges the poultry industry, and etiologic agent Clostridium perfringens is fourth leading cause of bacterially-induced food- borne illnesses in US. This study was designed evaluate effects a probiotic during naturally occurring NE. On day hatch, 1080 Cobb 500 male broilers were randomly allocated three groups (12 replicate pens/treatment, 30 birds/pen) including (1) negative control (NC): corn-soybean meal diet; (2) positive (PC): NC +...
In the United States, 18.6% of college students between 19-and 22-years old report e-cigarette use in last 30 days. Information regarding and perceptions this age group may assist understanding how to decrease initiation e-cigarettes a population that otherwise not nicotine. The purpose survey was determine current history relates student's health risks associated with e-cigarettes. A 33-item questionnaire sent at Midwestern university Fall 2018. Overall, 3754 completed questionnaire. More...
This paper considers psychological variables pertinent to driver automation. It is anticipated that driving with automated systems likely have a major impact on the drivers and multiplicity of factors needs be taken into account. A analysis driver, vehicle automation served as basis for eliciting factors. The main considered were: feed-back, locus control, mental workload, stress, situational awareness representations. expected anticipating effects brought about by could lead improved design...
