Walking, talking and looking: effects of divided attention on gaze behaviour and visual search performance in a real-world environment

Journal Article
Wincenciak, J., Egan, C. D., & Willis, A. (2010)
Walking, talking and looking: effects of divided attention on gaze behaviour and visual search performance in a real-world environment. Perception, 39, 35
Visually-guided behaviour in the laboratory may not always reflect that in larger-scale environments, using more realistic tasks. (eg Smith et al, 2008 Cogn Process 9 121-126)...

Journal Article
Willis, A., Gjersoe, N., Havard, C., Kerridge, J. & Kukla, R. (2004)
Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. Environment and planning. B, Planning & design. 31, 805-828. doi:10.1068/b3060. ISSN 1472-3417
Despite a burgeoning research effort directed at the design and modelling of effective urban spaces for pedestrians, remarkably little is known about how pedestrians actually ...

PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow.

Journal Article
Kukla, R., Kerridge, J., Willis, A. & Hine, J. (2001)
PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow. Transportation research record. 1774, 11-17. doi:10.3141/1774-02. ISSN 0361-1981
The paper discusses the need for an autonomous agent approach for the modeling of pedestrians in urban environments and places PEDFLOW in the context of existing models. PEDFL...

Effects of installing a marked crosswalk on road crossing behaviour and perceptions of the environment.

Journal Article
Havard, C., & Willis, A. (2012)
Effects of installing a marked crosswalk on road crossing behaviour and perceptions of the environment. Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 15, 249-260. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2011.12.007
A two-pronged study was conducted to investigate (a) pedestrians’ road-crossing behaviour and (b) perceptions of the walking environment, both before and after the installatio...
