Schemas

12.4K
A schema is a mental construct consisting of a cluster or collection of related concepts (Bartlett, 1932). There are many different types of schemata, and they all have one thing in common: schemata are a method of organizing information that allows the brain to work more efficiently. When a schema is activated, the brain makes immediate assumptions about the person or object being observed.

Social Scripts

10.3K
People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings. A script is a person’s knowledge about the sequence of events expected in a specific setting (Schank & Abelson, 1977). Essentially, scripts are a particular kind of schema, one containing default values for the features within an event. In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter),...

Routes of Persuasion02:20

Routes of Persuasion

68.8K
Persuasion is the process of changing our attitude toward something based on some kind of communication. Much of the persuasion we experience comes from outside forces. How do people convince others to change their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors? What communications do you receive that attempt to persuade you to change your attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors?

Social Foundations of Self IV: Self in Digital Communication

212
Since the early 2000s, computer-mediated communication (CMC) has grown rapidly, playing a crucial role in self-development. A key distinction between CMC and real-life interactions is the lack of a physically present partner. This absence makes non-verbal cues such as facial expressions, body language, and paralinguistic signals unavailable in CMC platforms like email, instant messaging, or social media. The lack of these cues can create ambiguity and complicate how feedback is interpreted.The...

Factors Influencing Attraction I: Proximity

300
Proximity plays a fundamental role in shaping interpersonal attraction by increasing opportunities for interaction and fostering familiarity. Research consistently demonstrates that individuals are more likely to form social bonds with those who are physically closer to them, whether in residential settings, workplaces, or educational institutions. This effect is largely driven by the increased frequency of encounters, which facilitates the development of friendships and romantic...

High-Level and Low-Level Awareness

792
Controlled processes in human consciousness represent high-alert mental states where individuals deliberately focus their attention on achieving specific goals. Controlled processes can be seen in situations like mastering new technology, where a person might become so absorbed that they ignore surrounding distractions. Such processes involve selective attention, requiring one to concentrate on particular elements of experience while disregarding others. These are governed by executive...

Area of Science:

  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Transportation Safety
  • Automotive Technology

Background:

  • Modern vehicles feature numerous technologies that can distract drivers.
  • Previous research primarily examined technology's impact on driving performance, not driver engagement.
  • Driver distraction is a major cause of road accidents, necessitating research into its origins.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify factors influencing drivers' self-reported likelihood of engaging with in-car technologies.
  • To understand the reasons behind driver engagement with potentially distracting automotive technologies.
  • To inform strategies for preventing distraction-related accidents caused by vehicle technology.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted a semi-structured interview study with drivers.
  • Developed an interview schedule to explore factors influencing technology engagement.
  • Collected quantitative data on engagement likelihood and qualitative data on reasons for engagement.

Main Results:

  • Driver engagement with technologies was influenced by age, gender, road type, and task type.
  • Qualitative data revealed specific reasons drivers chose to interact with in-car systems.
  • Findings align with existing literature regarding demographic influences on technology use.

Conclusions:

  • Understanding drivers' motivations for technology use is crucial for accident prevention.
  • Driver engagement patterns provide insights into preventing distraction from prevalent automotive technologies.
  • Recommendations can be developed to mitigate risks associated with in-car technology use.
