Abstract

The time–space frame affects individuals' travel preference by modifying the way information is presented, but its impact on driving behavior during travel remains unknown. The present study examined whether road sign under either time or space frames affects driving performance, using a simulated driving pathfinding experiment. A total of 53 participants took part in the experiment, each completing seven pathfinding tasks. The study found that road signs under the space frame created a longer psychological distance compared to those under the time frame, demonstrating the presence of the time–space framing effect. Bayesian Networks showed that the probability of risky driving under the space frame was higher than under the time frame. Male drivers showed a higher probability of risky driving under the space frame. These results suggest that longer psychological distances can lead to more dangerous driving behaviors. Driving safety can be enhanced by presenting drivers with information framed in different ways.

路标时空框架对寻路驾驶性能的影响：基于贝叶斯网络的结果

时空框架通过改变信息的呈现方式影响个体的出行偏好，但其对出行驾驶行为的影响尚不清楚。本研究通过模拟驾驶寻路实验，考察了道路标志在时间和空间框架下对驾驶行为的影响。共有53名参与者参加了这项实验，每人完成7项寻路任务。研究发现，空间框架下的路标比时间框架下的路标产生了更长的心理距离，证明了时空框架效应的存在。贝叶斯网络结果表明，空间框架下的危险驾驶概率高于时间框架下的危险驾驶概率。男性司机在空间框架下的危险驾驶概率更高。这些结果表明，更长的心理距离会导致更危险的驾驶行为。通过以不同的方式向驾驶员提供信息，可以提高驾驶安全性。

期刊介绍： Applied Cognitive Psychology seeks to publish the best papers dealing with psychological analyses of memory, learning, thinking, problem solving, language, and consciousness as they occur in the real world. Applied Cognitive Psychology will publish papers on a wide variety of issues and from diverse theoretical perspectives. The journal focuses on studies of human performance and basic cognitive skills in everyday environments including, but not restricted to, studies of eyewitness memory, autobiographical memory, spatial cognition, skill training, expertise and skilled behaviour. Articles will normally combine realistic investigations of real world events with appropriate theoretical analyses and proper appraisal of practical implications.
