This lack of clarity makes it difficult to understand the reasons for the disuse of technology, especially when studying the use of emerging assistive technology among older adults. This is problematic, as these emerging technologies offer numerous benefits, but many adults struggle to incorporate them into their daily lives, resulting in disuse.MethodWe analyzed open-ended survey responses from 78 older adults who had purchased but subsequently disused a smart speaker. We employed a reflexive thematic analysis to identify themes related to the disuse of technology.ResultsTwo overarching themes were identified. The first, \"Interests and Purchase Influences,\" captured the initial reasons for adoption, ranging from general curiosity to meeting specific needs. The second, \"Misalignment with Needs and Expectations,\" encompassed four subthemes: disspointment, lack of relevance, perceived risks, and impact on independence, which collectively explained why participants ultimately stopped using the device.ConclusionThese findings demonstrate how varied experiences with the same technology result in distinct disuse trajectories, highlighting the gap between adoption and disuse research. Clarifying these patterns strengthens the disuse taxonomy and lays the groundwork for future studies to quantify their impact.","PeriodicalId":56333,"journal":{"name":"Human Factors","volume":" ","pages":"187208251386675"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145304669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While such interventions may be safety conservative, they can also disrupt system operations, compromise safety, and reduce user trust.MethodA driving simulation with 23 participants was conducted in which a conditionally automated vehicle encountered a stopped vehicle blocking its lane, with oncoming traffic present in the adjacent lane. The system was programmed to safely overtake using the opposing lane considering the distance to the oncoming traffic. Participants could either remain in automated mode or override the system.ResultsDrivers intervened in more than 20% of events, most often by pressing the brake pedal while approaching the stopped vehicle when the gap to the oncoming traffic was perceived as insufficient. In challenging overtaking gaps, discrepancies between the behavior of a leading human-driven vehicle and the system further increased intervention likelihood, with some drivers misunderstanding the system's ability to detect oncoming vehicles. Although drivers who intervened completed overtaking faster than the system, their maneuvers were marked by abrupt steering and acceleration, raising concerns about encroaching into opposing traffic.ConclusionEnhancing system feedback and better aligning automation behavior with driver expectations may reduce unnecessary disengagements.ApplicationThe findings provide guidance for designing more intuitive automated driving systems that enhance user trust and safety.","PeriodicalId":56333,"journal":{"name":"Human Factors","volume":" ","pages":"187208251384118"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145214545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SDT classifies the world into binary states and hence oversimplifies the interaction observed in real-world scenarios. Allowing multi-class classification of the world reveals intriguing error patterns previously unexplored in prior literature.MethodThirty-five participants completed 60 trials of a simulated mental rotation task assisted by an AI with 70-80% reliability. Participants' trust in and dependence on the AI system and their performance were measured. By combining participants' initial performance and the AI aid's performance, five distinct patterns emerged. Mixed-effects models were built to examine the effects of different patterns on trust adjustment, performance, and reaction time.ResultsVarying error patterns from AI impacted performance, reaction times, and trust. Some AI errors provided false reassurance, misleading operators into believing their incorrect decisions were correct, worsening performance and trust. Paradoxically, some AI errors prompted safety checks and verifications, which, despite causing a moderate decrease in trust, ultimately enhanced overall performance.ConclusionThe findings demonstrate that the types of errors made by an AI system significantly affect human trust and performance, emphasizing the need to model the complicated human-AI interaction in real life.ApplicationThese insights can guide the development of AI systems that classify the state of the world into multiple classes, enabling the operators to make more informed and accurate decisions based on feedback.","PeriodicalId":56333,"journal":{"name":"Human Factors","volume":" ","pages":"1062-1083"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12273520/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143659831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Concurrently, we recorded participants' applied contact force and finger displacements.ResultsElectrovibration stimuli displayed on vehicle cockpit touchscreens were more reliably perceived with a 0.5-s duration than a 0.2-s duration, both in the presence and absence of turbulence.

SD stimuli were: false horizon, featureless terrain, leans, brownout, a somatogyral yaw illusion, and loss of horizon due to night vision goggles (NVGs). Mental workload was measured using auditory arithmetic task performance and attentional focus was measured using eye-tracking.ResultsAverage arithmetic task performance was significantly impaired, and proportional gaze dwell time on the attitude indicator was significantly increased in the SD compared to the NoSD condition. Of the six SD stimuli, the featureless terrain, the leans, and the brownout induced significant effects on performance, whereas the featureless terrain, brownout, and false horizon significantly affected gaze behavior. The NVGs and somatogyral yaw stimuli did not induce significant effects.
