abstract="The effect of conversation with a passenger on driver's arousal was examined using a driving simulator. <br><br>RESULTS showed that conversation increased driver's arousal while maintaining the level of mental workload within the allowable range. Additionally, driving stability measured by lane-keeping performance was improved by carrying on a conversation. These results indicate that, even though conversation with a passenger is sometimes regarded as a source of distraction, it can be beneficial for a driver's performance especially when that driver's drowsiness is a problem.<p /> <p>Language: ja</p>",
