dc.descriptionAn award-winning poster project completed at the Wichita State University Department of Psychology. Presented at the 11th Annual Capitol Graduate Research Summit, Topeka, KS, February 13, 2014.
dc.description.abstractThe effect of cognitive load on lane-keeping is inconsistent and unclear. The lateral prioritization hypothesis proposes that drivers prioritize lane-keeping when cognitively distracted; In contrast, the automatic steering hypothesis suggests that cognitively distracted drivers devote less attention to the automatic behaviors of steering control. Drivers were asked to prioritize lane-keeping, car following or the secondary task in a driving simulator. Drivers in lane-keeping prioritization condition produced smaller lane deviation and quicker steering response time to lateral wind gusts compared to drive-only condition. Data suggests that more attention to lane-keeping improves rather than impairs performance.
