Factor | Adaptation prediction | Outcome in relation to ECOM |
---|---|---|
Character role | Character cyclists in their own role stay within their comfort zone even when they negotiate rule-following. | The prediction was not supported by the hypotheses in the targeting, regulating or tracking layers. Rather, the current road-user role seems to affect rule-following at the stop sign. |
Character cyclists will try to stay within their comfort zone in their role as drivers as well as cyclists, by controlling the boundaries of the zone more often than character drivers. | ||
Road users who experience high complexity will increase their information intake, and even more so when outside of their character role. | ||
Current road-user role | The same situational demands will lead to the same levels of comfort, whereas different situational demands for drivers and cyclists will lead to different levels of comfort. | The prediction was supported by the hypotheses in the monitoring layer. This implies that the current road-user role and the demands for that role affect whether other road users are checked at an intersection. |
Complexity level | Road users who experience high complexity will increase their information intake to stay within their comfort zone. | The prediction was partly supported by the hypotheses in the tracking layer. Complexity seems to affect road users’ information intake. |
