DDI2022 abstract template

Abstracts must be written in English.
Length of the abstract should be min 1000 and maximum 1500 words, excluding references, tables and similar.

Please follow the DDI2022 abstract template provided above. All requirements for the abstract is stated in the template.
The abstract should give aim and scope of your study, materials and methods used, the results obtained and main conclusions reached. Abstracts with results will be priorities, but high quality and novel abstract content with preliminary results or a clear plan for producing result will also be considered.
It is the author’s responsibility to submit a correct abstract; any errors in spelling, grammar, or scientific fact will be reproduced as typed by the author, if accepted.
Abstract written in incorrect formats will be rejected.

Upon submission, indicate one of the following topics that best describes the content of the abstract:

THEORY

Defining distraction and inattention
Distraction and inattention due to new forms of mobility, e.g. micromobility
Behavior changes induced by the introduction of automation technologies
Mechanisms of distraction and inattention
Assessment of distraction and inattention
Models of distraction and inattention
Various forms of distraction (advertising, wearable devices, etc.)
Distraction in the context of automation
Factors that give rise to inattention and distraction
Driver engagement with technology as an addiction
The disconnected driver
Driver characteristics and individual differences
Theoretical aspects of driver monitoring

IMPACT

Effects on driving performance
Effects on driver behaviour and information processing
Effects on crash and near‐miss occurrences
Impact on crash and injury risk
Factors mediating impact (e.g., age, experience and gender)
Measurement of distraction and inattention (can be combined with the one below)
Measurement of public perceptions about distraction and inattention
The impact of trust, overreliance and expectation on driver distraction and inattention
Methods for safety impact assessment, e.g:
- Test track and driving simulator experiments
- Virtual and augmented reality
- Virtual simulations using computational driver models
- The validity of safety impact assessment metrics

COUNTERMEASURES

Legislation and enforcement

Vehicle and human-vehicle interface design
Design of technologies that prevent or mitigate the impact of driver distraction and inattention design on safety
Driver monitoring as a facilitator of countermeasures
Real‐time distraction prevention and mitigation systems
Promotion/Advertising
Education, training and driver licensing
