Performance Evaluation of Vehicle Electronic Stability Program Based on Psychological Method

Abstract:

With the increasing of ESP‘s equipment rate in the vehicle market, how to evaluate and promote the performance of the syetem which the vehicle equipped with is becoming the major issue in decades. In this paper, a method from a psychological perspective is brought forward to build an accessment system for the electronic stability program which is based on the mental factor of the drivers after the great effort on the survey of the appilication of the Ergonomics-Psychology throught the world. The system concluded five factors: workload, situation awareness, trust, stress and locus of control, and formed a questionnaire based on 13 basic questions. After the deployment of the the driver simulator test, the results show that the evaluation system provides a new methold to access the electronic stability program, and should give a bright sight to the subjective-objective correlation of handling and stability.
