TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - A decision ladder analysis of eco-driving: the first step towards fuel-efficient driving behaviour JO - Ergonomics A1 - McIlroy, Rich C. A1 - Stanton, Neville A. SP - 866 EP - 882 VL - 58 IS - 6 N2 - This paper provides a decision ladder analysis of eco-driving, and a discussion of the resultant models in terms of the skills, rules and knowledge taxonomy of human behaviour and how this can inform the design of an in-vehicle, eco-driving support system. In order to understand the types of behaviours that characterise fuel-efficient driving, a review was conducted of the academic literature and of more publicly available resources, such as governmental, car manufacturers' and specific eco-driving organisations' websites. The review identified four largely distinct driving activities that play a central role in the use of fuel in the private road vehicle. A focus group involving four researchers in the transport ergonomics field, followed by a series of five interviews with eco-driving experts, served to validate, supplement and further specify the models.
