At the Human Factors and Statistical Modeling Lab, our research emphasis is on the examination of complex datasets to gain insights on human performance and behavior as they interact with systems. The goal of our research is to enhance operator safety and reduce the risk of injuries and fatalities. We use a wide range of analytical approaches to solve problems related to human factors and transportation systems.

Currently seeking people for an on-road study, which evaluates how various roadway surface conditions effect driver behavior - focusing on driver stress. Participants will be asked to drive the UW instrumented vehicle around a 25 mile (mostly freeway route), while their heart rate is recorded via a 3-lead ECG device. The study begins and ends at the University of Washington Seattle campus and takes about 1.5 to 2 hours to complete. If you are interested in participating or learning more about the study, please email Erika at millerik@uw.edu.
