Quel format visuel adopter pour informer les sourds et malentendants dans les transports collectifs ?
Some information is not accessible to the deaf and hard-of-hearing in public transportation because it is diffused in an auditory mode with loud speakers. The present study aims to transcribe graphically five messages of disruption and test their understanding by an audience of people who are deaf or hard-of-hearing. Four graphic formats, more or less involving animation techniques have been developed. Messages have been tested experimentally to determine what format is the most adapted, i.e. the most understandable (understanding task), and to find out the favorite among the four proposed (judgment task). Three groups of subjects were involved in the experimentation: 36 born deaf people, 3…
L'obtention de l'examen du code de la route pour les personnes avec difficulté linguistique : un parcours fastidieux
Entretien Jacques Cartier, Bruxelles, BELGIQUE, 25-/11/2015 - 26/11/2015; En théorie, l'examen du code de la route peut être présenté par tous les publics quel que soit le niveau socioculturel, scolaire ou intellectuel. Les supports d'apprentissage ainsi que l'outil de contrôle des connaissances devraient être abordables par tous. Or, dans la pratique, l'examen du code de la route reste difficile d'accès à un nombre important de candidats, en particulier à ceux présentant des lacunes vis-à-vis du langage écrit tels que certains sourds ou malentendants, les personnes non francophones, dyslexiques ou encore dysphasiques. Selon un rapport parlementaire, le taux de réussite à l'examen du code d…
Can animation compensate for temporal processing difficulties in deaf people?
International audience; This article addresses the issue of animation as an aid for temporal processing difficulties in deaf people learning the Highway Code. A decision‐making task involving static or animated road situations was performed by 21 deaf and 24 hearing participants. They were confronted with four types of driving situations (overtaking, negotiating roundabouts, highways, and intersections) and had to decide whether or not to proceed. Participants were presented with two different formats (static vs. animated) and two levels of difficulty (simple vs. complex). Results showed that deaf participants had poorer performances in the static condition than hearing participants. Perfor…
Innovative visual design to assure information for all in transportation
ICAP 2014, 28th International Congress of Applied Psychology, PARIS, FRANCE, 08-/07/2014 - 13/07/2014; This research aims to propose alternative visual design of audio railway disruption announcements in order at reducing handicap situations encountered by travelers who can't hear or understand oral messages (deaf, hearing-impaired or foreign people). Five announcements were translated into two visual modes: in French sign language (with a sign language avatar named Jade) and in animated graphical designs. Different combinations were tested in order to find the better compromise between spatial and temporal organization for the both visual messages. For spatial parameter, messages were eith…
Does Animation Facilitate Comprehension of Public Information Graphics? Evidence from Eye Tracking.
Graphic information displays have the potential to communicate public information in situations where normal announcement types are ineffective. This study used eye tracking techniques to analyze comprehension mechanism of event-related information on railway traffic disruptions presented via different graphic formats. One hundred thirteen participants were asked to understand and compare series of traffic disruption messages delivered via three purely visual formats. Animated displays were the most effective presentation type. Eye tracking data showed why an animation facilitates comprehension: it enhances processing strategies which provide the best condition for segmenting the causal cha…
L'intérêt de l'animation comme support au code de la route pour les candidats sourds
Entretiens Jacques Cartier, LYON, FRANCE, 13-/11/2018 - 14/11/2018; This article focuses on the interest of using dynamic Highway Code learning materials, particularly for deaf people who present low temporal skills. Twenty-one deaf and 24 hearing candidates of Highway Code were involved in a decision-making task. Four types of driving situations (overtaking, insertion on roundabout, insertion on highway and crossing an intersection) from which participants have to decide to go or not to go were presented in two different formats (static vs animated) and in two level of difficulty (simple vs complex). Results showed better performance in animated than in static condition, especially in deaf…
Animation in public transports: can it facilitate information accessibility for elderly people?
Cognitive functions could be affected by aging: speed processing, inhibition abilities, working memory, visuo-spatial abilities. Nevertheless, these functions could also be involved in comprehension of graphic information. In this paper we examined whether in public transports, animated graphic information instead of spoken information, could facilitate the comprehension of disruption messages. Such alternative, could improve public transport accessibility for elderly people by compensating cognitive decline due to aging. Fifty-two participants, two groups of young and older people, were asked to understand and compare series of train traffic disruption messages delivered via three differen…
How not to give up on train travel when you are deaf ?
TRANSED 2015 - 14th International Conference on Mobility and Transport for Elderly and Disabled Persons, LISBONNE, PORTUGAL, 28-/07/2015 - 31/07/2015; The SUrDyn project aims at the design of an innovative visual information system, dedicated to travelers who cannot hear or understand audio disrupted announcements (e.g. cancellation, delay...) when they are in train stations. It is based on two previously developed systems: the Jade signer avatar, which informs travelers in French Signs Language, and an animated graphics translation. The objective is to combine these two approaches, in an optimal manner. We proposed a comprehension task to 159 participants divided in three groups: 53 deaf p…
Animer le matériel d'apprentissage du code de la route pour une meilleure compréhension et réussite à l'examen
29èmes Entretiens du Centre Jacques-Cartier. Facteurs humains, technologies embarquées et numériques : quel rôle pour les politiques de sécurité routière ?, LYON, FRANCE, 21-/11/2016 - 23/11/2016; Des travaux sur l'intérêt d'animer le matériel du code de la route pour des publics en difficulté linguistique sont présentés et discutés.
L'animation 3D comme support au code de la route. Intérêt pour les candidats sourds
9ème conférence de Psychologie Ergonomique (EPIQUE) : Ergonomie des technologies pour le développement des compétences, DIJON, FRANCE, 05-/07/2017 - 07/07/2017; La réussite à l'examen du code de la route est un facteur facilitant l'insertion sociale et professionnelle. Avec un taux de réussite largement inférieur aux candidats entendants, les individus sourds éprouvent de nombreuses difficultés. Le matériel actuel composé d'images statiques ne serait pas compatible avec des habiletés temporelles dégradées dues à l'absence d'audition. La présente étude s'intéresse au bénéfice d'un matériel dynamique basé sur des animations 3D dans une tâche de prise de décision. Les résultats mettent en évid…
Rendre dynamique le matériel d'apprentissage du code de la route : un intérêt particulier pour les sourds

Don’t miss your train! Just follow the computer screen animation: Comprehension of animated public information graphics
Computer graphic animated information displays have the potential to communicate public information in situations where normal announcement types are ineffective. This study used eye tracking techniques to analyze comprehension mechanism of event-related information on railway traffic disruptions presented via different graphic formats presented on computer screen. 86 participants were asked to understand series of traffic disruption messages delivered via four purely visual formats: Static simultaneous, Static sequential, Animated simultaneous and Animated sequential. Across these four conditions, and contrary to the most common materials used in the studies on animation comprehension, the…

Séminaire ARPEGE, PARIS, FRANCE, 05-/12/2016 - 05/12/2016; L'examen du code de la route est actuellement sources de difficultés pour la population sourde. Les supports statiques mériteraient d'être animé pour transmettre les rapport temps-vitesse distance, notions fondamentales pour transmettre les notions de sécurité routière. Les résultats de plusieurs travaux sont présentés et discutés.
