SUMMARY:103. Angry Drivers, Please Calm Down: Regulating Driver Emotions t
 o Enhance Driving Safety
DESCRIPTION:Poster\n\nSaya Susindar and Thomas Ferris (Texas A&M Universit
 y)\n\nElevated emotions, such as anger and rage, adversely influence a dri
 ver’s propensity for risky driving behaviors, contributing to more than 1/
 2 the motor vehicle fatalities in the United States. In simulated driving,
  we assessed the effectiveness of 3 emotion regulation interventions engag
 ing different sensory channels: (1) guided paced breathing (visual), (2) c
 alming music (auditory), and (3) the scent of lavender (olfactory). Anger 
 and happiness were induced in 46 adults who participated in 2 nine-minute 
 simulated driving trials, during which one of the interventions was introd
 uced. In angry driving, the auditory intervention used in this study showe
 d most promise by reducing the number of risky, “go” decisions at yellow l
 ights by about 24%, reducing the number of red light infractions by about 
 81%, and increasing the time to collision with the leading vehicle by an a
 verage of 300 milliseconds.\n\nTrack: Aging, Augmented Cognition, Children
