From road distraction to safe driving: Evaluating the effects of boredom and gamification on driving behaviour, physiological arousal, and subjective experience

作者:

Highlights:

• Our driving simulator study addresses safety risks posed by boredom and low task engagement.

• A gamified intervention is studied as a means to increase engagement in the safe driving task.

• The intervention reduced speeding while promoting anticipatory driving.

• We infer that gamification may increase and sustain attention and arousal throughout a drive.
