Teen Drivers

Under the leadership of Dr. Sherrilene Classen and Dr. Sandra Winter, and in collaboration with the University of Florida T-2 center, the Department of Occupational Therapy has received a Florida Department of Transportation grant to develop a computer based-training (CBT) program for teens.

Dr. Sherrilene Classen led the i-Mobile Research Lab, University of Western Ontario, to examine the efficacy of DriveFocus as an intervention on the visual scanning of critical roadway information and adjustment to stimuli of teen novice drivers, assessed via a Drive Safety CSD-200 high fidelity driving simulator.
