Abstract

Automation is transforming the human’s role in driving situations. Yet, the utopian imaginary of a “vehicle without the human driver” is far away from being a reality. The driver’s activity remains poorly understood in a context which tends to be polarized by its technological content. The aims of this study are to identify how the human activity is being analyzed on automated driving research and determine the analysis criteria used. Two distinctive paradigms were identified in the literature: the first one is focused on the behavioral measurable changes induced by automation functioning; the second paradigm puts at the center of analysis the construct of “activity” when interacting with technology. Based on the work psychology knowledge regarding the work activity within automated systems, the need to bring to the fore the drivers’ point of view is argued as a real means to design automated vehicles taking human aspects into account.
