A Comparative Study on Driving Performance Induced by Music Mood for Development of In-Vehicle Media Players

Abstract:

Though music listening while driving is a popular activity, it is not clear the effects of music mood induction on driving performance in different road conditions. In this study, four music samples with strongest mood features were selected by simplified Delphi method. Then driving performance in two road conditions induced by five music moods were investigated by comparative experiments. Results of ANOVA preliminarily demonstrated the significant differences between driving performance induced by various music mood in different road conditions. Furthermore, a mobile music player was developed and installed in two intelligence assist vehicles to validate its usability in the practice.
