The use of express lanes (ELs) in freeway traffic management has seen increasing popularity throughout the United States, particularly in Florida. These lanes aim at making the most efficient transportation system management and operations tool to provide a more reliable trip. An important component of ELs is the channelizing devices used to delineate the separation between the ELs and the general-purpose lane. With the upcoming changes to the FHWA Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, this study provided an opportunity to recommend changes affecting safety and efficiency on a nationwide level. It was important to understand the impacts on driver perception and performance in response to the color of the EL delineators. It was also valuable to understand the differences between demographics in responding to delineator colors under different driving conditions. The driving simulator was used to test the responses of several demographic groups to changes in marker color and driving conditions. Furthermore, participants were tested for several factors relevant to driving performance including visual and subjective responses to the changes in colors and driving conditions. Impacts on driver perception were observed via eye-tracking technology with changes to time of day, visibility, traffic density, roadway surface type, and, crucially, color of the delineating devices. The analyses concluded that white was the optimal and most significant color for notice of delineators across the majority of subjective and performance measures, followed by yellow, with black being the least desirable.

Learning And Performance

Students who can regulate their own learning are proposed to gain the most out of education, yet research into the impact of self-regulated learning skills on performance shows mixed results. This study supports the link between self-regulated learning and performance, while providing evidence of grade- or age-related differences. Australian students from Grades 5 to 8 completed mathematics or reading comprehension assessments and self-regulated learning questionnaires, with each response ranked on a hierarchy of quality. All assessments were psychometrically analysed and validated. In each cohort and overall, higher performing students reported higher levels of self-regulated learning. Still, age-related differences outweighed performance differences, resulting in significantly lower reported usage of self-regulated learning skills in Grade 7 students compared to those in Grades 5, 6 and 8. These findings suggest that either age or school organisational differences mediate students’ self-regulated learning, counteracting ability-related associations.

And Performance

Good routing and scheduling decisions for hazardous materials shipments often require the explicit consideration of multiple objectives. Also, the performance of the relevant facilities in the transportation system typically varies by time of day with respect to many of these objectives. The authors discuss the reliability and performance of a heuristic that can be used to identify good routes and schedules for hazardous material shipments. Presented is the second part of a two-part analysis. The first part described a method for performing an integrated routing/ scheduling analysis with multiple objectives when the arc attributes are time variant. This part discusses the quality of that analysis and additional heuristics that can be used to improve the quality of the solution generated.

Complementary Study

The intellectual and social performance of children who had attended nursery school on a part-time basis was compared with that of those attending full-time. While a beneficial effect of nursery education upon intellectual and social competence was observed, no differences between part-timers and full-timers were found on any of the measures used. Sex differences were apparent on two scales. A complementary study of the play activities however, revealed differences: part-timers spent proportionally more of their time in ‘nursery activities’ while full-timers engaged in more fantasy play. Time-of-day differences were also observed. The results are evaluated in the context of a model of play which ascribes distinctive functions to different forms of play.

Sports Activities

A morningness-eveningness questionnaire was administered to 34 golfers and 23 waterpolo-players to assess the influence of diurnal individual differences on the athletic performance levels. No differences in the diurnal type (“morning” vs “evening” individuals) were found among low-performing athletes, while in the high-performing group golfers had higher morningness scores than the waterpolo-players. The results suggest a relation between the diurnal type, performance level, and the time of day when the match is played (morning for golf and evening for waterpolo).
