Summary: This study collected autonomic response data (heart rate and skin conductance) from 30 landmarks in the head, neck, and face of 31 participants experiencing pressure discomfort and pain. The results showed that pressure stimulation can change heart rate and skin conductance, with skin conductance being more useful in assessing pressure discomfort and possessing a faster arousal rate. There were gender differences in subjective pressure thresholds and autonomic responses, but no linear correlation between them. This study has significant implications for resolving ergonomic issues associated with head-related products.

Summary: In this study, the impact of display lag on the differences between virtual and physical head pose in VR was examined, and the predictive value of DVP on cybersickness was investigated. The results showed that different types of added lag generated similar levels of cybersickness, and participants' DVP reliably predicted the severity of cybersickness.

Summary: Lengthening the inter-trial interval (ITI) or decreasing the press percentage (PP) slows down both reaction time and thought probe response time, resulting in a lingering mental delay state. The study found that mind wandering may delay the response time of thought probes. Participants adopt a mental speed-accuracy trade-off strategy to complete different tasks, speeding up thinking by reducing caution and uncertainty.

Summary: The study found that insomnia is associated with daytime sleepiness, hypervigilance, and mobile phone use before bed. Greater sleepiness leads to longer completion time for tasks and has a negative impact on performance. Therefore, objective measures of sleepiness are needed, along with the design of automated interventions and systems that promote better quality sleep.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of co-creation with service robots on employee wellbeing based on self-determination theory. The results suggest that co-creation with service robots enhances employees' sense of autonomy and influences their wellbeing through the mediation of autonomy needs related to competence and relatedness.

Summary: This paper evaluates the accessibility of 25 federal e-government websites in Nepal and finds that the majority of the websites fall short in meeting the WCAG 2.1 standards, contrast and ARIA errors, and HTML and CSS validation. However, the websites fare relatively well in terms of compliance with the website directive of 2021. The Nepal government is recommended to establish a web accessibility team and update existing website policies to ensure better accessibility.

Summary: This study quantified the impact of hood design on firefighters' range of motion, noise production, and hearing. Particulate-blocking hoods reduced rotational range of motion, while thicker hoods decreased hearing ability. Design, rather than the number of layers, affected noise production during head movement.

Summary: We introduce VIREO, a web-based software tool for graphical authoring of vibrotactile feedback for mobile and wearable applications. VIREO enables flexible specification of vibrotactile patterns with model-based and free-draw input, and is compatible with devices that run JavaScript. We demonstrate the capabilities of VIREO with applications developed for various mobile and wearable devices and present the results of a usability evaluation study. Additionally, we discuss the current state of software tools and platforms for authoring vibrotactile feedback in the scientific community.

Summary: This study aims to understand the trust requirements of UAV operators when piloting UAVs by interviewing six operators with different levels of experience. The importance of past experience to trust and the expectations held by operators were identified, and recommendations were made for training and improving equipment, procedures and standards to develop trustworthy systems. The methodology developed shows promise for capturing trust in human-automation interactions.
