Text a Bit Longer or Drive Now? Resuming Driving after Texting in Conditionally Automated Cars

In this study, we focus on different strategies drivers use in terms of interleaving between driving and non-driving related tasks (NDRT) while taking back control from automated driving. We conducted two driving simulator experiments to examine how different cognitive demands of texting, priorities, and takeover time…

AI-Augmented Brainwriting: Investigating the use of LLMs in group ideation

The growing availability of generative AI technologies such as large language models (LLMs) has significant implications for creative work. This paper explores twofold aspects of integrating LLMs into the creative process – the divergence stage of idea generation, and the convergence stage of evaluation and selection…

Identifying Cognitive and Creative Support Needs for Remote Scientific Collaboration using VR: Practices, Affordances, and Design Implications

Remote scientific collaborations have been pivotal in generating scientific discoveries and breakthroughs that accelerate research in many fields. Emerging VR applications for remote work, which utilize commercially available head-mounted displays (HMDs), offer the promise to enhance collaboration, through spatial and…

Perceptions of Trucking Automation: Insights from the r/Truckers Community

Recent technological advancements in automation have sparked interest in how automation will affect truck drivers and the trucking industry. However, there is a gap in the literature addressing how truck drivers perceive automation and how they believe it will impact trucking. This study aims to understand truck drive…

How Will Drivers Take Back Control in Automated Vehicles? A Driving Simulator Test of an Interleaving Framework

We explore the transfer of control from an automated vehicle to the driver. Based on data from N=19 participants who participated in a driving simulator experiment, we find evidence that the transfer of control often does not take place in one step. In other words, when the automated system requests the transfer of co…

Understanding Users Information Needs and Collaborative Sensemaking of Microbiome Data

Recent years are seeing a sharp increase in the availability of personal omic (e.g. genomes, microbiomes) data to non-experts through direct-to-consumer testing kits. While the scientific understanding of human -omic information is evolving, the interpretation of the data may impact well-being of users and relevant ot…

Understanding Collaborative Decision Making Around a Large-Scale Interactive Tabletop

We present findings from an empirical study of how groups of eight users collaborate on a decision-making task around an interactive tabletop. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine co-located collaboration in larger groups (of 8-12 users) seated around a large-scale high-resolution multi-touch horizonta…

Classroom Activity for Critical Analysis of News Propagation Online

We present an educational activity for college students to think critically about the truthfulness of news propagated in social media. This activity utilizes TwitterTrails, a visual tool to analyze Twitter claims, events, and memes. This tool provides views such as a propagation graph of a story’s bursting activity, a…
