Download or read book Effects of Moderate Blood Alcohol Levels on Automobile Passing Behavior written by William O. Light and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixteen clinically normal individuals .drove in an optical driving simulator in both a non-alcohol and an alcohol condition. In both the 0 mg% (.00%) and the 90 mg% (.09%) blood alcohol level conditions, each subject was given 60 trials in which he was required to make and execute a decision to pass or to continue following a lead car. Times available to safely complete a pass and vehicle speeds were presented in a random manner. During the alcohol condition, subjects not only attempted and completed significantly more passes but also experienced more accidents. Results of this experiment suggest that the effects of moderate levels of blood alcohol must be examined not only as they affect perceptual motor skills, but also as they may more subtly affect risk-taking behavior and decision processes involved in operating a motor vehicle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study of the effects of moderate blood alcohol levels (65 mg.%= .065%) on driver alertness, clinically normal individuals drove in an optical driving simulator for uninterrupted periods of 2 hours. During the alcohol session, subjects exhibited significantly slower reaction times, and indicated additional deleterious effects of the alcohol upon performance capacity. Results of this study suggest that the effects of moderate levels of blood alcohol must be examined not only as they affect simple perceptual-motor skills, but also as they may more subtly affect time-sharing capabilities and the various complex decision-reaction processes involved in operating a motor vehicle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After three decades of research, neurobehavioral toxicity is now acknowledged as a significant outcome of chemical exposure. Its health and economic costs may exceed those by cancer by substantial amounts. This new perspective has been accompanied by efforts designed to explore the responsible mechanisms, to design applicable risk assessment procedures, and to determine the consequent policy implications. This publication includes 25 papers from international experts and includes: human neurobehavioral toxicity; animal behavioral methods; selected model compounds; and risk assessment.

Download or read book Monitoring Behavior and Supervisory Control written by T. Sheridan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes all papers presented at the International Symposium on Monitoring Behavior and Supervisory Control held at Berchtesgaden, Federal Republic of Germany, March 8-12, 1976. The Symposium was sponsored by the Scientific Affairs Division of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Brussels, and the government of the Federal Republic of Germany, Bonn. We believe the book constitutes an important and timely status report on monitoring behavior and supervisory control by human operators of complex man-machine systems in which the computer is sharing key functions with the man. These systems include aircraft and other vehicles, nuclear and more conventional power plants, and processes for the manu facture of chemicals, petroleum, and discrete parts. By "monitoring" we mean the systematic observation by a human operator of mul tiple sources of information, e. g. , ranging from integrated display consoles to disparate "live situations". The monitor's purpose is to determine whether operations are normal and proceeding as desired, and to diagnose difficulties in the case of abnormality or undesirable outcomes. By "supervisory control" we mean control by a human operator of a computer which, at a lower level, is controlling a dynamic system. In such systems, the computer-control normally operates continuously or at high data rates in loops closed through electromechanical sensors and motors. By contrast, the human operator normally signals or reprograms the computer intermittently or at a much slower pace. The human operator handles the higher level tasks and determines the goals of the overall system.
