Driver Training for Automated Vehicles: A Systems Approach (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781032510903)

Dr Siobh?n E. Merriman, BSc, MSc, PhD, Grad.CIEHF, MIES, is a Visiting Research Fellow in Human Factors Engineering within the Transportation Research Group, Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences at the University of Southampton. Siobh?n holds a BSc in Psychology (2018, Royal Holloway University), an MSc in Human Factors and Ergonomics (2019, University of Nottingham) and was awarded a PhD in Engineering and the Environment at the University of Southampton in March 2023. Siobh?n's PhD research involved designing, developing and evaluating Training Programmes to improve drivers' mental models, trust, decisions and behaviour when activating Automated Vehicles. In 2022, Siobhan's PhD work contributed to a Government Policy Consultation on Self-Driving Vehicles and was awarded the Dieter W. Jahns Student Practitioner Award by the Foundation for Professional Ergonomics. Since completing her PhD, Siobh?n has been investigating how vulnerable road users (e.g. cyclists and pedestrians) will be impacted by the introduction of Automated Vehicles, as part of the REsilient Autonomous SOcio-cyber-physical ageNts project within the UK Research and Innovation Trustworthy Autonomous Systems Programme.

Dr Katherine L. Plant, PhD, C.ErgHF, Fellow of HEA, is an Associate Professor in Human Factors Engineering in the Transportation Research Group, Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, University of Southampton. Katherine is the Director of the Human Factors Engineering team, who, in 2018, were the recipients of The Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors Presidents Award. Katherine manages an extensive research portfolio covering the fields of trust in autonomous systems, command and control, road safety, and aviation. Katherine's research interests lie in understanding how people make decisions and how we can design the world to support the operational decisions that people need to make safely.

Dr Kirsten M. A. Revell, PhD, is a Human Factors Engineering Adjunct Research Fellow in the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences at the University of Southampton in the UK. Kirsten has degrees in Psychology, Industrial Design and Human Factors Engineering. Kirsten's industry background focused on developing technical training programs for Microsoft Ltd. Kirsten's academic work at Brunel University London and the University of Southampton has focused on cognition, usability, and system design.
