Age-related difference in steering control under reduced visibility conditions
Nguyen, Bobby T.; Zhuo, Yan; Ni, Rui (Elsevier, 2012-09-25)The current study investigated age-related differences in a steering control task under low visibility conditions. Younger and older drivers were presented with displays simulating forward vehicle motion through a 3D scene ... -
Are two computer monitors better than one?
Owens, Justin W.; Teves, Jennifer P.; Nguyen, Bobby T.; Smith, Amanda Lynn; Phelps, Mandy C. (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2012-04-18)Previous studies have found using more than one monitor increases productivity, but benefits may diminish when monitor count or size increases. The purpose of this study was to determine whether increases in productivity ... -
Spatio-temporal integration & optic flow quality: unpacking factors that influence driving performance
Nguyen, Bobby T. (Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2012-04-18)Research has shown that optic flow plays an important role in self-motion, such as walking or driving. Further, research has demonstrated that spatial, temporal, and qualitative aspects of optic flow have an effect on ... -
Texting while driving: is speech-based text entry less risky than handheld text entry?
He, Jibo; Chaparro, Alex; Nguyen, Bobby T.; Burge, Rondell J.; Crandall, Joseph; Chaparro, Barbara S.; Ni, Rui; Cao, Shi (Elsevier B.V., 2014-11)Research indicates that using a cell phone to talk or text while maneuvering a vehicle impairs driving performance.

The relationship between steering control and coherent motion performance under deteriorated conditions
Nguyen, Bobby T. (Wichita State University, 2015-05)Driving is primarily a visual task that involves processing visual information over space and time (e.g., motion perception). Previous research has shown that such spatial and temporal processing becomes much more difficult ...
