Bazilinskyy, P. (author), van der Geest, Lars (author), van Leeuwen, Stefan (author), Numan, Bart (author), Pijnacker, Joris (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)Driving is a safety-critical task that predominantly relies on vision. However, visual information from the environment is sometimes degraded or absent. In other cases, visual information is available, but the driver fails to use it due to distraction or impairment. Providing drivers with real-time auditory feedback about the state of the...journal article 2016

van Leeuwen, P.M. (author), Gómez i Subils, C (author), Ramon Jimenez, A (author), Happee, R. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)Technological developments have led to increased visual fidelity of driving simulators. However, simplified visuals have potential advantages, such as improved experimental control, reduced simulator discomfort and increased generalisability of results. In this driving simulator study, we evaluated the effects of visual fidelity on driving...journal article 2015

Rendon Velez, E. (author), van Leeuwen, P.M. (author), Happee, R. (author), Horvath, I. (author), van der Vegte, Wilhelm Frederik (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)Speeding because of time pressure is a leading contributor to traffic accidents. Previous research indicates that people respond to time pressure through increased physiological activity and by adapting their task strategy in order to mitigate task demands. In the present driving simulator study, we investigated effects of time pressure on...journal article 2016

van Leeuwen, P.M. (author), de Groot, S. (author), Happee, R. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)Motorsport has developed into a professional international competition. However, limited research is available on the perceptual and cognitive skills of racing drivers. By means of a racing simulator, we compared the driving performance of seven racing drivers with ten non-racing drivers. Participants were tasked to drive the fastest possible...journal article 2017

van Leeuwen, P.M. (author), Happee, R. (author), de Winter, J.C.F. (author)The young driver problem requires remedial measures against speeding and overconfidence. Previous research has shown that increasing the task difficulty during training can enhance subsequent retention performance and prevent overconfidence. In this driving simulator study, we evaluated the training effectiveness of vertical field of view...journal article 2014
