In this paper, we explore what kind of anthropomorphic AV interface designs may better enhance user trust in AV systems. More specifically, we propose the novel concept of \u201can AV interface that interacts with people as if an experienced, well-behaved human driver\u201d since people tend to place more trust in experienced, well-behaved human drivers than in autonomous driving systems. We explored this design concept through two sessions of co-design workshops with 12 industrial designers. We employed \u201cAnnotated Portfolio\u201d to annotate the graphical design materials collected in the workshop and analyzed these annotations together with the transcripts generated from the workshop through Reflexive Thematic Analysis. The results suggest novel design insights and guidelines for an AV interface that plays the social role of an experienced, well-behaved human driver. The design insights derived from this analysis informed the development of a spatial social agent prototype, which was implemented and tested within a virtual reality (VR) simulation to assess its effectiveness in fostering user trust in AV systems. The final prototype integrates key anthropomorphic elements that emulate the behaviors and communication patterns of an experienced, well-behaved human driver, creating a more relatable and reassuring AV interaction experience. To evaluate its impact, user testing and trust measurement validation were conducted, examining whether the proposed design significantly enhances user trust levels. The findings indicate that incorporating anthropomorphic and social interaction features into AV systems can effectively boost user confidence and acceptance, highlighting the potential of human-centered AV design strategies in addressing trust calibration challenges.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDRIVING LIKE AN EXPERIENCED, WELL-BEHAVED HUMAN DRIVER: DESIGNING AND EVALUATING A SPATIAL SOCIAL AGENT FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES THROUGH CO-DESIGN AND TRUST MEASUREMENT\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"DRIVING LIKE AN EXPERIENCED, WELL-BEHAVED HUMAN DRIVER: DESIGNING AND EVALUATING A SPATIAL SOCIAL AGENT FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES THROUGH CO-DESIGN AND TRUST MEASUREMENT"}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2025-03-27 18:34:09","changed_gmt":"2025-03-27 18:34:35","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2025-04-18T12:30:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2025-04-18T13:30:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2025-04-18T13:30:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2025-04-18 16:30:00","gmt_time_end":"2025-04-18 17:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2025-04-18 17:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"West Architecture 155","extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"111531","name":"ms defense"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
