Under simulated Class C road excitation, five seat-human contact conditions were tested, with data collected on beats per minute (BPM), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO<sub>2</sub>), subjective discomfort ratings, and discomfort locations. Results show a significant positive correlation (Spearman's ρ = 0.72, p = 0.002) between the frequency of BPM ‘relative peak’ and subjective discomfort occurrences. Backrest, armrest, and gripping a column reduced the frequency of BPM ‘relative peak’ by 35.3 %, 20.3 %, and 39.8 %, respectively. Headrests and armrests exhibited negative masking effects on discomfort perception, while backrests and gripping a column demonstrated positive masking effects. The optimization of seat design, especially the features of the backrest and column grip, can substantially alleviate the discomfort caused by vibration.

Previous studies have explored the association between drivers' peripheral vision and their hazard perception ability, but the impact of peripheral vision on driving behavior remains unclear.

Then, field of view range, number of correct and incorrect responses, target tracking deviation, and perception time were used to assess the peripheral vision perception ability of individuals. The time to first fixation on hazards, brake reaction time, Standard Deviation of Steering Wheel angle (SDSW), and average speed were selected as dependent variables. Then, the influence of the Peripheral Perception-Response Score (PP-RS) and lateral conflict type on driving performance was assessed. The study finds a significant relationship between the driver's PP-RS and lateral stability, with higher PP-RS scores correlating with smaller standard deviation of steering wheel angle. It also reveals that drivers exhibit a longer first fixation time (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.001) and a delayed reaction time (<em>p</em> = 0.001) when encountering a bicycle crossing compared to a vehicle crossing the roadway. The delay in first fixation time and reaction time are about 0.65 s and 0.67 s, respectively. A similar pattern is observed when pedestrians cross a roadway without a crosswalk.

Therefore, this study investigated the effects of the automation stage on alerted-monitor performance and operator perception with/without concurrent task demands, aiming to select the appropriate automation stage to mitigate false alarm impacts. Participants performed an alerted-monitor task under two automation stages (decision-making and action implementation) with/without a concurrent manual tracking task. Results showed that action-implementation automation consistently enhanced efficiency (e.g., reduced correct response time to false alarms, lower workload) and trust regardless of concurrent task demands, while uniquely improving accuracy in distinguishing true and false alarms only under concurrent task demands. In contrast, decision-making automation increased situational awareness exclusively in the absence of concurrent task demands. These findings suggest that action-implementation automation should be prioritized in the presence of concurrent task demands, as it mitigates false alarm effects, evidenced by its improved accuracy in distinguishing true and false alarms. In contrast, decision-making automation may be favored in contexts without concurrent task demands, as it enhances situational awareness, though its direct impact on mitigating false alarms is limited.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50317,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 103849"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145617689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their predicted thermal neutral temperature often differed from the actual situation. At present, there is no straightforward method to determine the thermal neutral temperature of mine working face. The exergy analysis method was combined with the Prediction Heat Strain model to establish a human exergy model. The model was used to calculate the exergy parameter of workers with humidity of 80 %–100 %, wind speed of 0.3–4.0 m/s, moderate/severe/extremely severe labour, and the corresponding relationship between the exergy parameter thresholds was analyzed. The rationality of using the minimum exergy consumption to determine the thermal neutral temperature was verified using the subjective thermal sensation voting (TSV) obtained from the simulated mine labour experiment. The results show that when the human body exergy transfer is the largest, the exergy efficiency is the largest, and the exergy consumption is the most minor (non-high temperature environment). The thermal neutral temperature of the working face is approximately equal to the ambient temperature corresponding to the maximum exergy transfer and minimum exergy consumption. When the wind speed is above 2.5 m/s, the thermal neutral temperature can be increased, which is conducive to reducing the energy consumption of refrigeration equipment. The human exergy model can predict the thermal neutral temperature of the working face, which provides a new idea for studying the thermal comfort of workers.

Grounded in adaptive learning theory, the study proposes and tests hypotheses regarding the associations and interaction effects of these factors on learning effectiveness. A single-group pre/post empirical design with 100 participants was employed, incorporating exploratory factor analysis, regression modeling, and user satisfaction surveys. Results indicate that both motivation and interest are significantly associated with improved learning outcomes, and their interaction demonstrates a synergistic effect. The system's modular architecture—comprising behavioral data collection, learner modeling, strategy generation, and feedback—was positively evaluated for usability and engagement. While the findings confirm theoretical associations within the adaptive environment, causal claims and comparative effectiveness against non-adaptive systems require future controlled studies. By combining ergonomic interface design with AI-driven adaptivity, this research contributes to educational ergonomics and adaptive learning literature, offering a replicable framework and practical insights for designing intelligent, user-aligned instructional systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50317,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics","volume":"110 ","pages":"Article 103834"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145519622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
