Anthropomorphic agents, transparent automation and driver personality: towards an integrative multi-level model of determinants for effective driver-vehicle cooperation in highly automated vehicles

Published: 01 September 2015 Publication History

Abstract

This paper introduces a model integrating research on antecedents of safe and enjoyable interaction with highly automated advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). It focuses on the psychological processes during the initial encounters with a system, in which system features interact with personality factors in building up beliefs and attitudes about a system affecting the further usage of the system. Our ongoing study is conducted online and aims at validating and elaborating the introduced model. In the study, participants are introduced to a self-driving agent, with whom they interact in a very simplified way. Besides testing our model the study investigates the effects of system transparency and anthropomorphism on user perceptions and their cooperation with the system. Our study will provide insights on how individual differences can be respected in designing interfaces that promote certain psychological conditions in turn leading to efficient cooperation with automated systems.
