Appropriate use demands variability in reliance on the automation—specifically, relying on the automation only when it is capable of similar or better performance than human drivers. The central role of reliance in appropriate use suggests a pressing need to understand the factors that contribute to automation reliance. We address this need through a driving simulator study of 49 participants, where drivers were asked to make reliance decisions with partial vehicle automation technology across four events representative of reliance decisions made in current automated vehicles. We used step-wise logistic regression analysis to assess the role of reliance inertia, situational trust, dispositional trust, situation awareness, and driver demographics on reliance. The results suggest that the factors that influence reliance vary by the traffic scenario, that reliance inertia has the strongest influence on subsequent reliance decisions, and that reliance was more strongly related to situational trust than dispositional trust. These findings suggest a need for technologies that calibrate reliance rather than trust in AVs and for additional broader studies of driver reliance on AV.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55502,"journal":{"name":"Applied Ergonomics","volume":"128 ","pages":"Article 104511"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143864791","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}

We then used Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping (FCM) to characterize how themes influence one another. FCM revealed two prominent themes that increase the amount of physical contact (transmission) between HCWs and residents and promote lapses in preventative practices during high-risk activities: 1) additional steps or tasks arising during these activities and 2) when these activities become otherwise prolonged. These themes were driven by themes related to the organization, residents, and residents’ caregivers.

However, movement smoothness may provide additional insights into skill progression by assessing improvements in movement execution. This study evaluated the evolution of both smoothness and productivity in hairdressing following a change of tool. Kinematic recordings of 14 professional hairdressers, novice users of Ringless Scissors [RS], were taken in the laboratory over four half-days of initiation and after 4.5 months of use in the hair salon. Three types of cuts were performed with Traditional Scissors [TS], then with RS. Smoothness [Number of Peaks (NoP); Log DimensionLess Jerk (LDLJ); SPectral ARC length (SPARC)] was assessed for an elementary movement sequence, spanning tool transport to the start of cutting. MT, representing the duration of these sequences, was assessed as a measure of productivity. After introduction of the RS, smoothness decreased and MT increased. With practice, both characteristics improved. After training, SPARC showed comparable smoothness between RS and TS for two of three cutting movements, while LDLJ and NoP remained higher with TS. After 4.5 months, smoothness improved further, with LDLJ and NoP approaching TS values. Although MT was significantly reduced, it remained higher with RS than TS after 4.5 months use in the salon. These results suggest that introduction of a new tool affects not only productivity – MT – but also movement quality – smoothness. The results presented highlight the relevance of smoothness measures in occupational contexts involving motor learning.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55502,"journal":{"name":"Applied Ergonomics","volume":"128 ","pages":"Article 104531"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143855863","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}

This study examined how varying table heights affect biomechanical loads on the low back and shoulders. Twenty-five participants performed crab sorting tasks at three table heights while trunk and shoulder joint angles, moments, muscle activity, perceived exertion, and discomfort were measured. Increasing table height reduced trunk flexion and lumbosacral (L5/S1) joint moments but increased shoulder flexion moments and upper trapezius muscle activity. Table height did not affect perceived exertion or discomfort. These findings indicate that increasing sorting table height can reduce biomechanical load on the low back but results in increased shoulder strain.
