| Research Abstract |
In this study, focusing on the moods of drivers as psychological factors affecting ride comfort, we obtained data on the moods of individual drivers during driving in an indoor experiment, and examined the relationship between mood and ride comfort by multivariate analysis. Next, we examined physiological information in terms of biological reactions as well as psychological information. In an outdoor experiment, the fluctuation in heart rate was measured as a biological reaction to monitor autonomic nerve activity. In addition, the relationships among ride comfort, mood of the driver, and physiological effects were discussed on the basis of psychological information during driving acquired through a questionnaire survey.
