Abstract

With the continuous improvement of high-speed train driving automation, automation failure’s influence is also increasing. The training tasks are abstracted into speed control as continuous monitoring, neutral zone passing and route information confirming as complex judgment tasks. During the monitoring operation experiment where automation failed intermittently, participants’ real-time and post-event automated trust index were recorded. The rapid deteriorating effect of automation failure on trust was verified. In the experiment, the coupling of automation modules with other system elements led to more severe automation trust degradation. The amount of interface information showed a positive effect on the establishment of trust in automation tendencies.
