Review of Driving Performance Parameters Critical for Distracted Driving Research (2017, unknown): “For example, drivers engaging in a cognitively demanding cell phone conversation often maintain longer headway distance in a car-following situation as compared to when driving without a distraction task (Ranney et al., 2005; Strayer et al., 2003; Strayer and Drews, 2004).”
No A 4 U: The relationship between multitasking and academic performance (2012, background): “For instance, research shows that driving while talking and/or texting on a cell phone is associated with increased reaction times and higher rates of accidents (Drews, Pasupathi, & Strayer, 2008; Drews, Yazdani, Godfrey, Cooper, & Strayer, 2009; Strayer & Drews, 2004).”
In-class multitasking and academic performance (2012, background): “…overload is supported by cognitive science research showing that human information processing is limited by a cognitive bottleneck that slows a task performed in tandem with another (Koch et al., 2011; Marois & Ivanoff, 2005; Strayer & Drews, 2004; Tombu et al., 2011; Wood & Cowan, 1995).”
Effects of distraction and experience on situation awareness and simulated driving (2007, background): “Prior research suggests that practice effects (e.g., Ferguson, 2003; Strayer & Drews, 2004), mental models (e.g., Langham, Hole, & Edwards, 2002), and flexible spatial strategies (e.g., Crundall & Underwood, 1998) developed through experience enhance operators’ performance.”
The impact of a naturalistic hands-free cellular phone task on heart rate and simulated driving performance in two age groups (2011, methodology): “However, as suggested in the research by Strayer and Drews (2004), the workload imposed by less demanding secondary tasks, as might be seen in a more basic cell phone interaction, may well be within the capacity of most drivers across the life span, at least to the extent that the impact on…”
Taking Over Control From Highly Automated Vehicles in Complex Traffic Situations (2016, background): “It is assumed that the TQT complicates the takeover by affecting drivers’ workload, just like in manual driving (e.g., Strayer, Drews, & Johnston, 2003) and prolongs drivers’ reaction times (Strayer & Drews, 2004; Strayer, Drews, & Crouch, 2006).”
Student class standing, Facebook use, and academic performance (2015, background): “For instance, trying to attend to more than one task at a time " clogs " up the bottleneck by overloading the capacity of the human information processing system (Koch, Lawo, Fels, & Vorländer, 2011; Marois & Ivanoff, 2005; Strayer & Drews, 2004; Tombu et al., 2011; Wood & Cowan, 1995).”
The Effects of Text Messaging on Young Drivers (2009, background): “…dimensions, including visual processing of the road environment, motor control and response, and higher-order (cognitive) processing (e.g., Lee & Strayer, 2004; McPhee, Scialfa, Dennis, Ho, & Caird, 2004; Strayer & Drews, 2004, Strayer, Drews, & Crouch, 2006; Strayer, Drews, & Johnston, 2003).”
Driver distraction : a review of the literature (2007, unknown): “Strayer and Drews (2004) also found that drivers’ following distance to a lead vehicle increased by 12 percent when drivers were conversing on a hands-free mobile phone under simulated driving conditions.”
Driver distraction: A review of the literature (2003, unknown): “DISTRACTION .............................................................................................................”
Driver crash risk factors and prevalence evaluation using naturalistic driving data (2016, background): “Despite this improvement, the United States has not kept pace with other developed countries in terms of traffic safety.”
