While driving simulators are a valuable tool for assessing multiple dimensions of driving performance under relatively safe conditions, researchers and practitioners must be prepared for participants that suffer from simulator sickness. This paper describes multiple theories of motion sickness and presents a method for assessing and reacting to simulator sickness symptoms. Results showed that this method identified individuals who were unable to complete a driving simulator study due to simulator sickness with greater than 90% accuracy and that older participants had a greater likelihood of simulator sickness than younger participants. Possible explanations for increased symptoms experienced by older participants are discussed as well as implications for research ethics and simulator sickness prevention.
虽然驾驶模拟器是一种在相对安全的条件下评估驾驶性能多个维度的有价值的工具，但研究人员和从业者必须为患有模拟器晕动症的参与者做好准备。本文描述了运动病的多种理论，并提出了一种评估和应对模拟器晕动症症状的方法。结果表明，该方法以超过 90%的准确率识别出因模拟器晕动症而无法完成驾驶模拟器研究的个体，且年龄较大的参与者比年龄较小的参与者更有可能出现模拟器晕动症。还讨论了年龄较大的参与者出现症状增加的可能原因，以及对研究伦理和模拟器晕动症预防的影响。
