Physiological features have been used to investigate stress, but more knowledge is needed in understanding physiological indicators of work-related stress. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, no study is available that integrates both pupillometry and heart rate in investigating work-related stress. We, therefore, utilized task-evoked pupillary response (TEPR) from pupillometry and heart rate (HR), in the assessment of physiological responses of 32 subjects during the performance of Multi-Attribute Task Battery-II consisting of working baseline and stress conditions. A comparison of results of both conditions showed that TEPR and mean HR significantly increased during stress condition, as compared to working baseline condition. These results are attributed to the work related-stressors integrated in our study, thereby bolstering the applicability of heart rate and pupillometry in studies of work-related stress.","PeriodicalId":74544,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society ...

However, social media also brings new forms of phishing attacks compared to conventional email phishing and desires new forms of anti-phishing intervention including user training. To tackle this problem, we investigated the efficacy of current email training techniques for phishing scams on Instagram Shop advertisements. Participants were tasked to rate how likely they would recommend an office product in Instagram Shop to their boss based on how legitimate the advertisement (ad) appeared. Our results indicated that shoppers’ experience with Instagram influenced their ability to distinguish between phishing and legitimate ads. However, more-frequent Instagram users did not have a decreased susceptibility to phishing than less-frequent users, and the current training techniques had no effect on participants’ ratings of phishing and legitimate ads. Future studies may explore other training methods, such as including feedback to participants.","PeriodicalId":74544,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society ...

There is a growing need for an empirically validated generalizable tool that can capture differences in participants gaming experience due to the growing representation of regular video gamers, and the proliferation of gamified, simulated task environments. The analyses reported here examine the factor loadings of a general Video Game Experience Measure (VGEM) designed to tap facets of gaming experience that can distinguish non-gamers from gamers and is also sensitive to varying levels of proficiency. Results from exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses find support for a five-factor model capturing: Game-skill Confidence, Gaming Lifespan, Gaming Intensity, Gaming Frequency, and Gamer Self-efficacy. These findings are discussed in the context of how the VGEM can support research using gamified task environments requiring the study of cognition and collaboration.","PeriodicalId":74544,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society ...

Participants were faster in completing mathematical problems when using typography selected for individual readability, but no difference occurred in task accuracy, matching patterns previously seen in interlude reading. Future research should assess the impact of elements of time pressure, math complexity, numeric versus text-based questions, and associated math anxiety.","PeriodicalId":74544,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society ...

Eight participants were involved in twelve trials over two days and held static postures (looking down at 45° or 90°) for 20 minutes with 10-minute breaks between trials. Six trials utilized tension forces, which were recorded every two minutes and then averaged for each trial. A bivariate regression analysis ( on each metric vs. average tension forces demonstrated that increasing tension forces led to decreased muscle activity of the left splenius capitis, change in general body pain, change in neck discomfort, and the rate of discomfort developing, and improved usability scores.","PeriodicalId":74544,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society ...

We discuss a dynamic mixed-initiative human-autonomy teaming (HAT) coordination concept, where multiple military SOF teams collaborate together with autonomous capabilities. We argue that effective tactical actions requires shift of coordination forms, i.e. who is enacting coordination functions, which in military command and control (C2) terminology is formalized as coordination authority. Coordination forms could shift according to a set of requirements and we discuss how to elicit experiences of such coordination from simulated missions where human teammates and/or NICs have had to make choices of coordination form. We formulate a set of hypotheses remaining to be empirically analyzed. We draw on collaboration research investigating socio-technical systems where machine teammates collaborate with human teammates to achieve a common goal.","PeriodicalId":74544,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society ...

Participants were required to judge how similar they thought a pair of faces were, to decide whether the faces in each pair were the same person, and then to judge the difficulty of that decision. Professional screeners were more accurate, faster, and, more sensitive when normative task difficulty was low. Professional screeners were also more accurate, faster, and more sensitive when prior identity source information was accurate. There was no main effect of prior identity source type on performance (there was a trend-level effect). Face matching accuracy positively correlated with normative data from non-professional screeners. Professional screeners were more accurate 80.6% of the time, compared to non-professional screeners.","PeriodicalId":74544,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society ...
