Exploring two interaction mechanisms for in-vehicle touch screens: Peripheral Vision and Muscle Memory (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Eren, A., Burnett, G., Harvey, C., & Large, D. R. (2017, March). Exploring two interaction mechanisms for in-vehicle touch screens: Peripheral Vision and Muscle Memory. Paper presented at International Conference on Driver Distraction and Inattention (DDI2017), Paris, France

There is a need to understand how in-vehicle touchscreens can be designed to minimise “eyes off road” time. We investigated the relative effects of two mechanisms shown to be relevant to visual behaviour when driving, but previously not considered to...

Beyond human error taxonomies in assessment of risk in sociotechnical systems: a new paradigm with the EAST ‘broken-links’ approach (2016)
Journal Article
Stanton, N. A., & Harvey, C. (2016). Beyond human error taxonomies in assessment of risk in sociotechnical systems: a new paradigm with the EAST ‘broken-links’ approach. Ergonomics, 60(2), 221-233. https://doi.org/10.1080/00140139.2016.1232841

© 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. Risk assessments in Sociotechnical Systems (STS) tend to be based on error taxonomies, yet the term ‘human error’ does not sit easily with STS theories and concepts. A new break-link app...

Driving without wings: the effect of different digital mirror locations on the visual behaviour, performance and opinions of drivers (2016)
Journal Article
Large, D. R., Crundall, E., Burnett, G., Harvey, C., & Konstantopoulous, P. (2016). Driving without wings: the effect of different digital mirror locations on the visual behaviour, performance and opinions of drivers. Applied Ergonomics, 55, 138-148. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2016.02.003

Drivers' awareness of the rearward road scene is critical when contemplating or executing lane-change manoeuvres, such as overtaking. Preliminary investigations have speculated on the use of rear-facing cameras to relay images to displays mounted ins...

Comparing the NHTSA and ISO occlusion test protocols: how many participants are sufficient? (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pournami, S., Large, D. R., Burnett, G., & Harvey, C. (2015, September). Comparing the NHTSA and ISO occlusion test protocols: how many participants are sufficient?. Presented at The 7th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications , Nottingham, United Kingdom

Occlusion is a popular technique used to evaluate the visual demand associated with secondary tasks/devices in a driving context offering a low cost, highly accessible alternative to driving simulators and on-road studies. Several standardised occlus... Read More about Comparing the NHTSA and ISO occlusion test protocols: how many participants are sufficient?.

Extending helicopter operations to meet future integrated transportation needs (2015)
Journal Article
Stanton, N. A., Plant, K. L., Roberts, A. P., Harvey, C., & Thomas, T. G. (2016). Extending helicopter operations to meet future integrated transportation needs. Applied Ergonomics, 53, 364-373. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2015.07.001

Helicopters have the potential to be an integral part of the future transport system. They offer a means of rapid transit in an overly populated transport environment. However, one of the biggest limitations on rotary wing flight is their inability t... Read More about Extending helicopter operations to meet future integrated transportation needs.

Investigating performance of command team structures in the NATO problem-approach space (2015)
Journal Article
Stanton, N. A., Rothrock, L., Harvey, C., & Sorensen, L. (2015). Investigating performance of command team structures in the NATO problem-approach space. IEEE Transactions on Human-Machine Systems, 45(6), 702-713. https://doi.org/10.1109/THMS.2015.2437993

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the NATO Problem-Approach Space could be mapped to optimal performance of different team structures. The results show that the five team communication structures (chain, Y, circle, wheel, and all-c...

Safety in systems-of-systems: ten key challenges (2014)
Journal Article
Harvey, C., & Stanton, N. A. (2014). Safety in systems-of-systems: ten key challenges. Safety Science, 70, 358-366. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssci.2014.07.009

A System-of-Systems (SoS) describes a large and distributed network of component subsystems which are themselves complex and autonomous. The goals of a SoS can only be achieved by the interactions of the subsystems and not by any subsystem in isolati... Read More about Safety in systems-of-systems: ten key challenges.

What the drivers do and do not tell you: using verbal protocol analysis to investigate driver behaviour in emergency situations (2014)
Journal Article
Banks, V. A., Harvey, C., & Stanton, N. A. (2014). What the drivers do and do not tell you: using verbal protocol analysis to investigate driver behaviour in emergency situations. Ergonomics, 57(3), 332-342. https://doi.org/10.1080/00140139.2014.884245

Although task analysis of pedestrian detection can provide us with useful insights into how a driver may behave in emergency situations, the cognitive elements of driver decision-making are less well understood. To assist in the design of future Adva... Read More about What the drivers do and do not tell you: using verbal protocol analysis to investigate driver behaviour in emergency situations.

Sub-systems on the road to vehicle automation: hands and feet free but not 'mind' free driving (2013)
Journal Article
Banks, V. A., Stanton, N. A., & Harvey, C. (2014). Sub-systems on the road to vehicle automation: hands and feet free but not 'mind' free driving. Safety Science, 62, 505-514. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssci.2013.10.014

Automation essentially enables drivers to become “hands and feet free” but not necessarily “mind-free” during vehicle operation and on these grounds, increased vehicle automation may contribute to safety concerns rather than overcome them. Although a... Read More about Sub-systems on the road to vehicle automation: hands and feet free but not 'mind' free driving.
