TY - CONF AB - <p>Driving is a complex psychomotor task that is often interrupted by secondary activities that divert attention away from the roadway. The risk of inattentive driving is known vary with age. The degree to which culture impacts these changes is less established. To study the impact of age and culture on drivers’ capacity to manage dual task demands, we developed a parallel driving simulation in the US and Korea. We assessed the performance of 135 drivers divided into two age groups, younger (20–29) and older (60-69). Both age and cultural group differences in basic highway driving performance measures were observed. However, the relative impact of the dual task demands on driving performance was largely consistent across cultures.</p> AU - Bryan Reimer, Bruce Mehler, Joonwoo Son, Anna E Pohlmeyer, Jarrod Orszulak, Jonathon Long, Joseph F Coughlin DA - 2009/6// DO - 10.17077/drivingassessment.1323 IS - 2009 VL - 5 PB - University of Iowa PY - 2009 TI - A Cross-Cultural Comparison of Younger and Older Adults' Simulated Highway Driving Performance Under Single and Dual Task Conditions T2 - Driving Assessment Conference UR - https://pubs.lib.uiowa.edu/driving/article/id/28074/ ER -
