Abstract

We took a novel approach to measure Situation Awareness, employing a qualitative verbal elicitation task. Participants (n=10) watched eight videos of driving scenes, recording spoken descriptions when each video stopped. Responses were categorised to form a ‘Taxonomy of SA’, capturing the key elements of people’s reported SA of driving situations.
