Abstract
Abstract The importance of how cognitive processes (Reasoning) influence on the understanding and the mental representation of road-side elements in form of the movement effects on the path driving must be studied in-depth. Literature shows that the key point to explain the influence of attention on movement is the meaning of the object being processed; literature also shows that the Reasoning with those cues we pay attention to has an effect on driving. By using a driving-simulation task, traffic signs have been tested on their effect on movement. Results show that the least-representative-of-their-meaning signs deviate participants´ movement path more intensively than the most-representative-of-their-meaning signs. Conclusions: Traffic accidents are well-known for their. The results here reported help to improve the cognitive Ergonomics of every road element, specially, traffic signs.
