Experiment design for Stress data collection while driving in a simulator
- The principal objective of this study is to investigate the impact of perceived stress on traffic and road safety. Therefore, we designed a study that allows the generation and collection of stress-relevant data. Drivers often experience stress due to their perception of lack of control during the driving process. This can lead to an increased likelihood of traffic accidents, driver errors, and traffic violations. To explore this phenomenon, we used the Stress Perceived Questionnaire (PSQ) to evaluate perceived stress levels during driving simulations and the EPQR questionnaire to determine the personality of the driver. With the presented study, participants can categorised based on their emotional stability and personality traits. Wearable devices were utilised to monitor each participant's instantaneous heart rate (HR) due to their non-intrusive and portable nature. The findings of this study deliver an overview of the link between stress and traffic and road safety. These findings can be utilised for future research and implementing strategies to reduce road accidents and promote traffic safety.
