Pedestrian safety is influenced by an individual’s ability to understand the surrounding environment and respond appropriately to potential hazards. Smartphone use while walking can increase attentional demands because individuals must divide their attention between walking, the smartphone screen, and the surrounding environment. In addition, environmental thermal conditions may also affect pedestrians’ physiological responses and cognitive performance. This study aims to evaluate the effects of thermal conditions and multi-tasking on pedestrian situation awareness.
This study involved 24 female participants wearing hijabs and used a within-subject experimental design. Each participant completed four experimental conditions: 25°C without texting, 25°C with texting, 30°C without texting, and 30°C with texting. In each condition, participants walked on a treadmill at a constant speed of 3 km/h for 10 minutes while observing a pedestrian environment video displayed on a smart TV. Situation awareness was measured using SPAM questions presented during the scenario. Situation awareness data were processed using Query Response (QR) and Probe Response Latency (PRL), which were then converted into an Inverse Efficiency Score (IES). In addition, participants’ thermal responses were measured using skin temperature and Thermal Sensation Vote (TSV).
The results showed that thermal condition did not have a significant effect on pedestrian situation awareness, with F(1,23) = 0.400, p = 0.533, and ?p² = 0.017. In contrast, multi-tasking had a significant effect on situation awareness, with F(1,23) = 4.724, p = 0.040, and ?p² = 0.170. The IES value in the texting condition was higher than in the non-texting condition, indicating that texting reduced pedestrian situation awareness. The results also showed no significant interaction between thermal condition and multi-tasking on situation awareness, with F(1,23) = 0.021, p = 0.885, and ?p² = 0.001. Meanwhile, skin temperature and TSV increased significantly at 30°C compared to 25°C, indicating physiological and subjective responses to different thermal conditions.
