Commentary driver training: effects of commentary exposure, practice and production on hazard perception and eye movements (2017)
Journal Article
Young, A. H., Crundall, D., & Chapman, P. (2017). Commentary driver training: effects of commentary exposure, practice and production on hazard perception and eye movements. Accident Analysis and Prevention, 101, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aap.2017.01.007

Commentary driving typically involves being trained in how to produce a verbal running commentary about what you can see, what you are doing, what might happen and what action you will take to avoid potential hazards, while driving. Although video-ba... Read More about Commentary driver training: effects of commentary exposure, practice and production on hazard perception and eye movements.

Prefrontal cortex activation and young driver behaviour: a fNIRS study (2016)
Journal Article
Foy, H. J., Runham, P., & Chapman, P. (2016). Prefrontal cortex activation and young driver behaviour: a fNIRS study. PLoS ONE, 11(5), 1-18. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0156512

Road traffic accidents consistently show a significant over-representation for young, novice and particularly male drivers. This research examines the prefrontal cortex activation of young drivers and the changes in activation associated with manipul...

Are anxiety and fear separable emotions in driving?: laboratory study of behavioural and physiological responses to different driving environments (2015)
Journal Article
Barnard, M. P., & Chapman, P. (2016). Are anxiety and fear separable emotions in driving?: laboratory study of behavioural and physiological responses to different driving environments. Accident Analysis and Prevention, 86, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aap.2015.10.021

Research into anxiety and driving has indicated that those higher in anxiety are potentially more dangerous on the roads. However, simulator findings suggest that conclusions are mixed at best. It is possible that anxiety is becoming confused with fe...

Processing of Spontaneous Emotional Responses in Adolescents and Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Effect of Stimulus Type (2015)
Journal Article
Cassidy, S., Chapman, P., Ropar, D., & Mitchell, P. (2015). Processing of Spontaneous Emotional Responses in Adolescents and Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Effect of Stimulus Type. Autism Research, 8(5), 534-544. https://doi.org/10.1002/aur.1468

Recent research has shown that adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have difficulty interpreting others' emotional responses, in order to work out what actually happened to them. It is unclear what underlies this difficulty; important cues may...

The influence of image valence on visual attention and perception of risk in drivers (2014)
Journal Article
Bailey, K., Chapman, P., & Jones, M. (2014). The influence of image valence on visual attention and perception of risk in drivers. Accident Analysis and Prevention, 73, 296-304. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aap.2014.09.019

Currently there is little research into the relationship between emotion and driving in the context of advertising and distraction. Research that has looked into this also has methodological limitations that could be affecting the results rather than...

Can Adults With Autism Spectrum Disorders Infer What Happened to Someone From Their Emotional Response? (2013)
Journal Article
Cassidy, S., Ropar, D., Mitchell, P., & Chapman, P. (2014). Can Adults With Autism Spectrum Disorders Infer What Happened to Someone From Their Emotional Response?. Autism Research, 7(1), 112-123. https://doi.org/10.1002/aur.1351

Can adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) infer what happened to someone from their emotional response? Millikan has argued that in everyday life, others' emotions are most commonly used to work out the antecedents of behavior, an ability terme...
