sports scores and intimate moments an expectancy violations theory approach to partner Cell Phone behaviors in adult romantic relationships
Western Journal of Communication, 2017Co-Authors: Lynne Kelly, Aimee E Millerott, Robert L DuranAbstract:This study investigated how 225 adults perceived and responded to expectations of attentiveness and availability via Cell Phones when with romantic partners. Phone behaviors were generally expected, neutral, and typical but more negative when participants expected partner attention. Behaviors were more unexpected and negative if in public than at home. Phone sharing behaviors were perceived positively. Partner rewardingness was negatively correlated with valence and predicted Cell Phone satisfaction, as did valence, expectedness, and typicality of Cell Phone behavior. The most common response to partners’ Cell Phone Usage was to say nothing.

the presence of Cell Phones in romantic partner face to face interactions an expectancy violation theory approach
The Southern Communication Journal, 2015Co-Authors: Aimee E Millerott, Lynne KellyAbstract:Cell Phones are essential in maintaining ties with romantic partners but they can also detract from quality time we spend with them. The purpose of this study was to examine expectations that romantic partners have of Cell Phone Usage during time spent together and how they manage violations of expectations. Using Expectancy Violation Theory (EVT; Burgoon, 1978) as the analytical framework, in-depth, qualitative analysis of transcripts of focus groups with college students (N = 51) revealed that participants have expectations for undivided attention on formal dates and when spending intimate time together and divided attention when informally “hanging out” with one another. In addition, results identified ways that individuals respond to expectancy violations and manage their expectations with romantic partners.

who multi tasks and why multi tasking ability perceived multi tasking ability impulsivity and sensation seeking
PLOS ONE, 2013Co-Authors: David M Sanbonmatsu, David L. Strayer, Nathan Medeirosward, Jason M. WatsonAbstract:The present study examined the relationship between personality and individual differences in multi-tasking ability. Participants enrolled at the University of Utah completed measures of multi-tasking activity, perceived multi-tasking ability, impulsivity, and sensation seeking. In addition, they performed the Operation Span in order to assess their executive control and actual multi-tasking ability. The findings indicate that the persons who are most capable of multi-tasking effectively are not the persons who are most likely to engage in multiple tasks simultaneously. To the contrary, multi-tasking activity as measured by the Media Multitasking Inventory and self-reported Cell Phone Usage while driving were negatively correlated with actual multi-tasking ability. Multi-tasking was positively correlated with participants’ perceived ability to multi-task ability which was found to be significantly inflated. Participants with a strong approach orientation and a weak avoidance orientation – high levels of impulsivity and sensation seeking – reported greater multi-tasking behavior. Finally, the findings suggest that people often engage in multi-tasking because they are less able to block out distractions and focus on a singular task. Participants with less executive control - low scorers on the Operation Span task and persons high in impulsivity - tended to report higher levels of multi-tasking activity.

passenger compartment violation detection in hov hot lanes
IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2016Co-Authors: Yusuf Artan, Orhan Bulan, Robert P. Loce, Peter PaulAbstract:Due to the high volume of traffic on modern roadways, transportation agencies have proposed high occupancy vehicle (HOV) and high occupancy tolling (HOT) lanes to promote carpooling. Enforcement of the rules of these lanes is currently performed by roadside enforcement officers using visual observation. Officer-based enforcement is, however, known to be inefficient, costly, potentially dangerous, and ultimately ineffective. Violation rates up to 50%–80% have been reported, whereas manual enforcement rates of less than 10% are typical. Near-infrared (NIR) camera systems have been recently proposed to monitor HOV/HOT lanes and enforce the regulations. These camera systems bring an opportunity to automatically determine vehicle occupancy from captured HOV/HOT NIR images. Due to their ability to see through windshields of vehicles, these cameras also enable enforcement of other passenger compartment violations such as seatbelt violation and driver Cell Phone Usage, in addition to determining vehicle occupancy. In this paper, we propose computer vision methods for detecting vehicle occupancy, seatbelt violation, and driver Cell Phone Usage from NIR images captured from HOV/HOT lanes. Our methods consist of two stages. First, we localize the vehicle's front windshield and side window from captured HOV/HOT images using the deformable part model (DPM). Next, we define a region of interest in the localized images for each violation type and perform image classification using one of the local aggregation-based image features, i.e., bag-of-visual-words (BOW), vector of locally aggregated descriptors (VLAD), and Fisher vectors (FV), and compare their performances for each case. We also compare the performance of DPM-based detection with the image classification methods for vehicle occupancy and seatbelt violation detection. A data set over 4000 images including front/side view vehicle images with seatbelt and Cell Phone violations was collected on a public roadway and is used to perform the experiments.

driver Cell Phone Usage detection from hov hot nir images
Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2014Co-Authors: Yusuf Artan, Orhan Bulan, Robert P. Loce, Peter PaulAbstract:Distracted driving due to Cell Phone Usage is an increasingly costly problem in terms of lost lives and damaged property. Motivated by its impact on public safety and property, several state and federal governments have enacted regulations that prohibit driver mobile Phone Usage while driving. These regulations have created a need for Cell Phone Usage detection for law enforcement. In this paper, we propose a computer vision based method for determining driver Cell Phone Usage using a near infrared (NIR) camera system directed at the vehicle's front windshield. The developed method consists of two stages, first, we localize the driver's face region within the front windshield image using the deformable part model (DPM). Next, we utilize a local aggregation based image classification technique to classify a region of interest (ROI) around the drivers face to detect the Cell Phone Usage. We propose two classification architectures by using full face and half face images for classification and compare their performance in terms of accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity. We also present a comparison of various local aggregation-based image classification methods using bag-of-visual-words (BOW), vector of locally aggregated descriptors (VLAD) and Fisher vectors (FV). A data set of 1500 images was collected on a public roadway and is used to perform the experiments.

effects of simulator practice and real world experience on Cell Phone related driver distraction
Human Factors, 2008Co-Authors: Joel M Cooper, David L. StrayerAbstract:OBJECTIVE: Our research examined the effects of practice on Cell-Phone-related driver distraction. BACKGROUND: The driving literature is ambiguous as to whether practice can reduce driver distraction from concurrent Cell Phone conversation. METHODS: Drivers reporting either high or low real-world Cell Phone Usage were selected to participate in four 90-min simulated driving sessions on successive days. The research consisted of two phases: a practice phase and a novel transfer phase. RESULTS: Dual-task performance deficits persisted through practice and transfer driving conditions. Moreover, groups reporting high and low real-world experience exhibited similar driving impairments when conversing on a hands-free Cell Phone. CONCLUSIONS: These data indicate that practice is unlikely to eliminate the disruptive effects of concurrent Cell Phone use on driving. APPLICATION: Multiple regulatory agencies have considered, or are currently considering, legislation to restrict in-vehicle Cell Phone use. Findings reported herein may be useful to inform these public policy decisions. Keywords: Driver distraction; Language: en
