Abstract

Electroencephalogram (EEG) was used to analyze the mechanisms and differences in brain neural activity of drivers in visual, auditory, and cognitive distracted vs. normal driving emergency braking conditions. A pedestrian intrusion emergency braking stimulus module and three distraction subtasks were designed in a simulated experiment, and 30 subjects participated in the study. The common activated brain regions during emergency braking in different distracted driving states included the inferior temporal gyrus, associated with visual information processing and attention; the left dorsolateral superior frontal gyrus, related to cognitive decision-making; and the postcentral gyrus, supplementary motor area, and paracentral lobule associated with motor control and coordination. When performing emergency braking under different driving distraction states, the brain regions were activated in accordance with the need to process the specific distraction task. Furthermore, the extent and degree of activation of cognitive function-related prefrontal regions increased accordingly with the increasing task complexity. All distractions caused a lag in emergency braking reaction time, with 107.22, 67.15, and 126.38 ms for visual, auditory, and cognitive distractions, respectively. Auditory distraction had the least effect and cognitive distraction the greatest effect on the lag.

  • The right middle frontal gyrus acts as a key hub for attention allocation and motor control, and its connectivity with the calcarine gyrus plays a crucial role in conscious visual perception.

    “The right middle frontal gyrus acts as a key hub for attention allocation and motor control,[29] and its connectivity with the calcarine gyrus plays a crucial role in conscious visual perception.[30]”

    From Brain Rewires to Stabilize Walking During Visual Impairment · cites this paper as [29]

    The Discussion (§4.2; page not provided) describes the right middle frontal gyrus as a convergence point for attention networks involved in redirecting attention. It associates motor control and coordination with other regions, not the right middle frontal gyrus. The calcarine-gyrus clause carries a separate citation [30] and is not assessed against this source. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
